express-phpify

Express, (literally) Redefined.
NOW WITH OPTIONS

Getting Started

Installing

Install this package to run following command.

npm install express-phpify // or else you can use `yarn add express-phpify`.

And just add below code to your app (if you don't need to configure something).

// `app` is your existing express application.
phpify(app);

OR use the options to match your needs! (v.1.1.0 or higher)

// `app` is your existing express application.
phpify(app, {
  // (Optional) What should it set the header value X-Powered-By to? default: PHP/5.3.3, set false to disable
  headerXPoweredBy: 'PHP/5.3.3',
  // (Optional) What should it set the header value server to? default: Apache/2.2.27 (Unix), set false to disable
  headerServer: 'Apache/2.2.27 (Unix)',
  // Should it fake PHPSESSID? This is default, set false to disable
  // Legacy Codes will be compatible at this point, but i recommend using this way.
  fakePHPSESSID: {
    // maxAge of fake session Cookie in milliseconds, (default: 5 minutes)
    maxAge: 300000,
    // Instead of PHPSESSID, Which fake session name you are going to use? (default: PHPSESSID)
    sessionName: "PHPSESSID",
    // Where should be the basePath of the cookie? (default: /)
    basePath: "/"
  },
  // Redirection setup. This is the default, set false to disable 
  redirection: {
    // add .php at end of the file, e.g. /a -> /a.php, default: true
    file: true,
    // should we redirect directory? set false to disable
    directory: {
      // (Optional) set the indexFileName e.g. /a/ -> /a/index.php
      indexFileName: 'index.php'
    }
  },
  // Mock the eastereggs at PHP. (available from 1.2.3-beta)  
  // This will read the version info of PHP from headerXPoweredBy (if not set, 5.3.3 will be used.)
  // This will not work if your headerXPoweredBy's version is setted over 5.5.0 (since PHP removed it) (Default: true)
  phpEastereggs: true
})

Phpifying existing application

Before you run actual application's codes, Please run phpify(app); (Suppose app as express application) beforehand.
phpifying can not procede, if you use phpify after the application logic. (responses are already sent)

READ THIS!!

This library will only allow accessing to paths that end with / or with .php extension by default,
If you don't want it, Set the option redirection to false (default: true)

• Why do you need this project?
• Inspired by this tweet(Korean), (Github profile)
• This library IS NOT guaranteed to be recognized as PHP.
• If this library does not correctly mock the express to PHP, and if you know how to fix it in the source code, Feel free to give us a PR. It always will be welcomed.

TODO

1. Force .php extension to every routes. (DONE)
