Description
Peanut is a collection of objects for PHP5 web development.
It's not a 'framework' because it doesn't force you to organize
or code in any specific way.
(This current revision is coded against
PHP5, and it uses many of 5's features, so unfortunately
it won't work with PHP4).
This code is still under active development.
I've been using it myself - over various revisions - for years now,
and i believe it's pretty solid, but it's definitely not guaranteed
or anything... YMMV.
I'm a fan of the Dont Repeat Yourself principle.
I've tried to keep things simple and unobtrusive.
I've tried to keep the configuration and "housekeeping" junk to
a minimum.
So yeah, anyway, this is the most current revision of a
library that i started putting together when i first started
programming in PHP (with version 3) because i quickly
noticed how frequently i was doing certain things and it would
make a whole lot of sense to put those things into a library
that could be shared between projects (instead of copy/pasted
piecemeal, which i hate doing). When i did look around for
frameworks, i didn't see any i liked, because it was
before PHP really took off in popularity.
Suffice to say, the code has come through some major revisions
since my PHP3 days... but the spirit is still the same... a
lightweight library to save me work.
If you find any use for this code, let me know.
