# Luna Module - Web A PHP **Web Module** designed for handling HTTP, routing, controllers, sessions, and authentication in the **Luna Framework**. **Robust**, **Flexible**, and **Developer-Friendly** - Simplifying web request handling in your PHP projects.

[[TOC]]

ℹ️ About the Project

This project is developed in PHP 8.2 and is part of the Luna Framework ecosystem.

The Luna Web Module provides a structured way to handle routing, requests/responses, controllers, session management, and web authentication (JWT).

Detailed documentation is available in the Wiki: Luna Web Wiki

Key Features

Routing and Dispatch: Handle web requests and map them to controllers.
HTTP Abstractions: Request/Response utilities with sensible defaults.
Controllers: Base abstractions for building application controllers.
Session Management: Native PHP session handling utilities.
Authentication (JWT): Decode and validate JWT for protected routes.
Dependency Injection: Seamless integration with Luna’s DI for service wiring.
PSR-4 Autoloading: Clean and autoloaded code structure.
PHP 8.2 Features: Implements modern PHP features for clean, predictable code.

🔧 Dependencies

It uses PHP 8.2+, ensuring compatibility with modern features.

This module depends on the following:

Luna Framework: The Luna framework's core. (MIT License)
firebase/php-jwt for JWT handling. (BSD-3-Clause License)
PHP extensions:
- openssl (JWT signing/verification algorithms)
- sodium/libsodium (modern crypto support; recommended for JOSE/EdDSA)
Development tools:
- PHPUnit

Refer to the composer.json file for additional details.

⚙️ Setup and Installation

To use the Luna Web module, follow the steps below:

Step 1: Install via Composer

Ensure Composer is installed, then execute the following in your root project folder:

composer require shiros/luna-web

Step 2: Autoload the Module

The module supports PSR-4 autoloading. If you're using the Luna Framework, it’s automatically available via the Luna module declaration. Otherwise, make sure to include Composer’s autoloader:

require 'vendor/autoload.php';

🚀 Usage Example

Refer to the official documentation for advanced examples and further details.

Typical integration points:

Define routes under config and point them to your controllers (extending the module’s AbstractController).
Use HTTP Request/Response abstractions within controllers.
Configure authentication with JWT to protect specific routes while excluding public paths.

Example: Handling protected routes with JWT (conceptual)

<?php
// PHP
// In your route handling, JWTAuthenticationProvider will validate incoming Authorization headers,
// decode the token, and inject authentication data into the Request if access is granted.

📄 Testing

This project uses PHPUnit for testing, you can run the test suite as follows.

Step 1: Install development dependencies

Before running the test suite, ensure all project dependencies, including development dependencies, are installed. Use Composer to handle this:

composer install

This command will fetch all the required libraries and ensure your project setup is complete.

Step 2: Execute the Test Suite

Once dependencies are installed, you can execute the test suite using PHPUnit.
This ensures all the functionality of the framework is working as expected:

vendor/bin/phpunit --configuration phpunit.xml --colors=always

The test results will be displayed in your console. Colored output simplifies understanding the testing status:

Green: Tests passed successfully.
Red: Tests failed.
Yellow: Warnings or skipped tests.

For more details on the tests, explore the /tests directory. It contains comprehensive unit tests covering various parts of the framework.
