README

The CommonPHP Driver Management Library provides a robust framework for managing driver implementations in PHP applications. By leveraging attributes and contracts, it offers a flexible system to register, enable, and utilize various drivers seamlessly within your projects.

Features

• Flexible Driver Configuration: Configure drivers using PHP 8 Attributes or by specifying driver contracts.
• Dynamic Driver Support Checking: Determine if a class is supported as a driver based on its configuration.
• Driver Instantiation: On-demand driver instantiation managed by the CommonPHP Service Management framework, ensuring dependency injection and singleton management.
• Comprehensive Exception Handling: Detailed exception handling for configuration errors, unsupported drivers, and instantiation issues.

Installation

Use Composer to integrate the Driver Management Library into your project:

composer require comphp/drivers

Configuration

Define Driver Contracts or Attributes

Implement DriverContract for interface/abstract class-based drivers or use DriverAttributeContract to mark drivers with attributes.

Register and Configure DriverManager

use CommonPHP\Drivers\DriverManager;
use CommonPHP\Drivers\ServiceProviders\DriverManagerServiceProvider;
use CommonPHP\ServiceManagement\ServiceManager;

// Initialize ServiceManager and register DriverManagerServiceProvider
$serviceManager = new ServiceManager();
$serviceManager->providers->registerProvider(DriverManagerServiceProvider::class);

// Retrieve an instance of DriverManager
$driverManager = $serviceManager->get(DriverManager::class);

// Configure DriverManager with an attribute or contract class
$driverManager->configure(
    attributeClass: YourDriverAttribute::class,
    contractClass: YourDriverContract::class
);

Usage

Enable a Driver

Once a driver meets the configured criteria (attribute or contract), enable it using:

$driverManager->enable(YourDriverClass::class);

Utilize an Enabled Driver

Retrieve and use an enabled driver:

$driver = $driverManager->get(YourDriverClass::class);
$driver->performAction();
