1) Download Package
silex.zip
2) Apache ModRewrite
the .htaccess contains the following code:
RewriteEngine On
# Some hosts may require you to use the `RewriteBase` directive.
# If you need to use the `RewriteBase` directive, it should be the
# absolute physical path to the directory that contains this htaccess file.
#
# RewriteBase /
Header add Access-Control-Allow-Origin "*"
Header add Access-Control-Allow-Headers "origin, x-requested-with, content-type"
Header add Access-Control-Allow-Methods "PUT, GET, POST, DELETE, OPTIONS"
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ index.php [QSA,L]
3) Test Functions
Objectives:
Get "/"
Get "/testget/1"
Post "/testpost" with form data key message (x-www-form-urlencoded)
Get "/testgetcontents" to call Get "/testget/"
Post "/testpostcontents" to call Get "/testpost/" with form data key message (x-www-form-urlencoded)
Codes:
<?php

$app = new Silex\Application();
$app->get('/', function(){

});
$app->post('/testpost', function (Request $request) {
$message = $request->get('message');
$reply = 'You have sent the following message:'.$message;
return new Response($reply, 201);
});
$app->get('/testgetcontents',function(){
$contents = file_get_contents('http://demo.razoph.com/silex/api/');
