Magneton, the superdense PHP framework

magneton.php

<?php $u=$_GET['u'];$l=$u();extract($l);include("view/{$u}.php");

The framework that fits in a tweet! Or a vim line.

To use it, write each action of your app in an individual function, and pass the variables you want to send to the view as the return values of the function. For example, app.php:

require 'magneton.php';
function posts() {
  $posts = mysql_fetch_array(mysql_query("SELECT * FROM `posts` LIMIT 20"));
  return array('posts' => $posts);
}

The extract() function brings the associations from an array into the current namespace as variables, and then the view is evaluated in the current namespace. That allows the action's function to pass variables to the view.

And the associated view, view/posts.php:

<div id="posts">
  <?php foreach ($posts as $post): ?>
    <h3><?php echo $post['title']; ?></h3>
    <div class="body"><?php echo $post['body']; ?></div>
  <?php endforeach; ?>
</div>

When http://yourdomain/app.php?u=posts is accessed, the value of $_GET['u'] is treated as a function name and executed. The locals are extracted, and the view is shown. Then, just set up a few rewrite rules and everything's gravy.

I know how insecure it is. It's just a novelty. Oh man please do not deploy this.

You should check out twitto as well http://twitto.org/

But seriously this is really not secure, I wouldn't encourage anybody using these kinds of stuff in production.

Is it Enterprise-Ready?
