Installation

Use composer to install sledgehammer modules.

$ composer.phar require sledgehammer/core:*

Just include('vendor/autoload.php'); and the Sledgehammer Framework (and other installed composer libraries) can be used.

You can try the dump function: dump($var); to check if the installation is successful.

ErrorHandler

Add \Sledgehammer\Core\Debug\ErrorHandler::enable(); to allow the Sledgehammer ErrorHandler to handle the errors, warnings, notices and uncaught exceptions.

The errorhandler can send error reports per email to the address configured in ErrorHandler->email.

Static files

Serve static files from modules by adding a line to your rewrite/index.php.

require("vendor/sledgehammer/core/src/render_public_folders.php");

Autoloader

\Sledgehammer\Core\Autoloader::enable();

Enables the autoloader, which kicks in when the Composer Autoloader was unable to load the class. The Sledgehammer\Core\Autoloader tries to diagnose the issue and loads the class when it can.
