ramsey/php-library-skeleton

ramsey/php-library-skeleton is a package that may be used to generate a basic PHP library project directory structure, complete with many of the starting files (i.e. README, LICENSE, GitHub issue templates, PHPUnit configuration, etc.) that are commonly found in PHP libraries. The project directory that's created may be used as a starting point for creating your own PHP libraries.

This project adheres to a Contributor Code of Conduct. By participating in this project and its community, you are expected to uphold this code.

Installation

ramsey/php-library-skeleton is not a library that you install in the traditional way using composer require. Instead, you'll use composer create-project to use this package as a starting part for developing your own PHP library.

Here's how do this, using Composer:

composer create-project ramsey/php-library-skeleton target-directory

You will be walked through a series of questions, and your PHP library source files will be located in target-directory, when completed. Change to that directory, git init, and off you go!

Why did you include x and not y?

Simply put: I created this project skeleton generator for my own uses, and these are the common files and boilerplate language I use in my PHP libraries. If you like what you see, feel free to use it. If you like some of it but not all, fork it and customize it to fit your needs. I hope you find it helpful!
