Bored is a PHP micro-framework. It provides a simple framework but you can bring things together in order to refine your own ad-hoc framework; just don't call the bored_run() function. The main documentation is the source code.

In a nutshell:

<?php
include('bored.php');

route('GET', '/hello/!name', function($name) {
	return "Hello ${name}";
});

bored_run();
?>

Things bored will never have:

• An ORM
• A templating system
• Dependency injection
• Built-in database migration
• Unit testing
• More than 2000 SLOC.

It works like this:

route('GET', '/hello/?name', function($name = "Friend") {
	return "Hello ${name}";
});

Argument prefixes are: !mandatory and ?optional.

Database facilities are based on the mysqli PHP extension. It mainly consists of a single function dbquery() which allows few but very convenient ways to interact with the database. In order to enabled the database you have to define four constants:

define('DBHOST', '');
define('DBUSER', '');
define('DBPASS', '');
define('DBNAME', '');

If one is missing, no DB connection gets opened and any call to dbquery() will fails. Once all of the above has been defined a connection to the DB is made available and it's possible to use dbquery(). Keep reading.

Fetch a single row:

$sql = "select id,username from users where id = 30";
$user = dbquery($sql);
print_r($user);

This will results in the following:

Array
(
    [id] => 30
    [username] => userfoo
    ...
)

Fetch multiple rows:

$sql = "select id,username from users";
$users = dbquery($sql, -1); /* -1 means no limit */
print_r($users);

This produces an output like this:

Array
(
    [0] => Array
        (
            [id] => 248
            [username] => userbar
            ...
        )

    [1] => Array
        (
            [id] => 425
            [username] => userbaz
            ...
        )
    ...
)
