# caridea-http
Caridea is a miniscule PHP application library. This shrimpy fellow is what you'd use when you just want some helping hands and not a full-blown framework.

This is its HTTP component. It includes small utilities for working with [PSR-7](http://www.php-fig.org/psr/psr-7/) HTTP requests and responses, including:
* An implementation of RFC 7807, "[Problem Details for HTTP APIs](https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc7807)".
* A utility to parse common pagination parameters from the request
* A utility to correctly parse query strings with multiple parameters having the same name
* A utility to determine a client's preferred accepted MIME type

## Examples
Just a few quick examples.
### Problem Details
We included an implementation of RFC 7807 that you can serialize to JSON or
append to a PSR-7 HTTP Response.
```php
use Caridea\Http\ProblemDetails;
use Zend\Diactoros\Uri;
$problem = new ProblemDetails(
new Uri('http://example.com/problem/oops'), // type
'A weird thing happened', // title
500, // status
'It looks like the server has goofed again', // detail
new Uri('http://example.com/problems/1f9a'), // instance
[ // extensions
'server' => 'workerbee01.example.com',
'auth' => 'foobar'
]
);
echo json_encode($problem);
```
### Pagination Factory
```php
use Zend\Diactoros\ServerRequestFactory;
$request = ServerRequestFactory::fromGlobals(
$_SERVER,
\Caridea\Http\QueryParams::getFromServer(), // instead of $_GET
);
$factory = new \Caridea\Http\PaginationFactory();
// say the Query was ?count=25&startIndex=1&sort=%2Bfoo&sort-bar
// or maybe ?count=25&start=0&sort=%2Bfoo,-bar
// or one of many other formats for this type of pagination settingns
$pagination = $factory->create($request, 'sort');
$pagination->getMax(); // 25
$pagination->getOffset(); // 0
$pagination->getOrder(); // ['foo' => true, 'bar' => false]
```
### Accept Types
```php
// say the HTTP_ACCEPT field is text/html,application/xhtml+xml,application/xml;q=0.9,*/*;q=0.8
$types = new \Caridea\Http\AcceptTypes($_SERVER);
$types->preferred(['application/xml', 'application/json']); // returns application/xml
```
### Helper Traits
Two traits are now available, `JsonHelper` and `MessageHelper`. These can be used by controller classes or dispatcher middleware.
## Third-Party
The traits `JsonHelper` and `MessageHelper` (as well as their unit tests) were ported to PHP from the Labrys library under a compatible Apache 2.0 license.
