Utilities

The Jinya Router Extensions include a few utility functions to make working with PSR-7 requests easier.

get_request​

The get_request function creates a PSR-7 ServerRequestInterface from PHP globals (like $_GET, $_POST, $_SERVER).

It also has built-in support for parsing JSON request bodies.

Usage​

use function Jinya\Router\Extensions\Database\get_request;

// Create a request and parse the body if it's application/json
$request = get_request(parseBody: true);

// Get the parsed body (as an array)
$data = $request->getParsedBody();

Arguments:

  • parseBody (bool, default: false): If true, the function will check the Content-Type header. If it is application/json, it will decode the request body and set it as the parsed body of the request.

Requirements​

This function requires nyholm/psr7 and nyholm/psr7-server to be installed.
