Macaw is a simple PHP router. It's super small, fast, and sexy.

If you have Composer, just download the package from Packagist. If you don't just install it by downloading the .ZIP file and extracting it to your project directory.

Macaw is not an object, so you can just make direct operations to the class. Here's the Hello World:

Macaw::get('/', function() {
  echo 'Hello world!';
});

Macaw::dispatch();

Macaw also supports lambda URIs, such as:

Macaw::get('/(:any)', function($slug) {
  echo 'The slug is: ' . $slug;
});

Macaw::dispatch();

You can also make requests for HTTP methods in Macaw, so you could also do:

Macaw::get('/', function() {
  echo 'I <3 GET commands!';
});

Macaw::post('/', function() {
  echo 'I <3 POST commands!';
});

Macaw::dispatch();

Lastly, if there is no route defined for a certain location, you can make Macaw run a custom callback, like:

Macaw::error(function() {
  echo '404 :: Not Found';
});

If you don't specify an error callback, Macaw will just echo 404.

In order to let the server know the URI does not point to a real file, you need to use the included .htaccess file.
