In this tutorial, we will create a functional TodoList application using Lithe. You will learn how to structure your project, create interactive views, and implement a RESTful API to manage your tasks. This project will serve as an excellent example of how to build modern web applications with PHP.

Prerequisites

• PHP 7.4 or higher
• Composer installed
• MySQL
• Basic knowledge of PHP and JavaScript

Project Structure

First, let's create a new Lithe project:

composer create-project lithephp/lithephp todo-app
cd todo-app

Setting Up the Database

Edit the .env file in the root of the project with the following configuration:

DB_CONNECTION_METHOD=mysqli
DB_CONNECTION=mysql
DB_HOST=localhost
DB_NAME=lithe_todos
DB_USERNAME=root
DB_PASSWORD=
DB_SHOULD_INITIATE=true

Creating the Migration

Run the command to create a new migration:

php line make:migration CreateTodosTable

Edit the generated migration file in src/database/migrations/:

return new class
{
    public function up(mysqli $db): void
    {
        $query = "
            CREATE TABLE IF NOT EXISTS todos (
                id INT(11) AUTO_INCREMENT PRIMARY KEY,
                title VARCHAR(255) NOT NULL,
                completed BOOLEAN DEFAULT FALSE,
                created_at TIMESTAMP DEFAULT CURRENT_TIMESTAMP,
                updated_at TIMESTAMP DEFAULT CURRENT_TIMESTAMP ON UPDATE CURRENT_TIMESTAMP
            )
        ";
        $db->query($query);
    }

    public function down(mysqli $db): void
    {
        $query = "DROP TABLE IF EXISTS todos";
        $db->query($query);
    }
};

Run the migration:

php line migrate

Implementing the Model

Generate a new model:

php line make:model Todo

Edit the file src/models/Todo.php:

namespace App\Models;

use Lithe\Database\Manager as DB;

class Todo
{
    public static function all(): array
    {
        return DB::connection()
            ->query("SELECT * FROM todos ORDER BY created_at DESC")
            ->fetch_all(MYSQLI_ASSOC);
    }

    public static function create(array $data): ?array
    {
        $stmt = DB::connection()->prepare(
            "INSERT INTO todos (title, completed) VALUES (?, ?)"
        );
        $completed = false;
        $stmt->bind_param('si', $data['title'], $completed);
        $success = $stmt->execute();

        if ($success) {
            $id = $stmt->insert_id;
            return [
                'id' => $id,
                'title' => $data['title'],
                'completed' => $completed
            ];
        }

        return null;
    }

    public static function update(int $id, array $data): bool
    {
        $stmt = DB::connection()->prepare(
            "UPDATE todos SET completed = ? WHERE id = ?"
        );
        $stmt->bind_param('ii', $data['completed'], $id);
        return $stmt->execute();
    }

    public static function delete(int $id): bool
    {
        $stmt = DB::connection()->prepare("DELETE FROM todos WHERE id = ?");
        $stmt->bind_param('i', $id);
        return $stmt->execute();
    }
}

Creating the Controller

Generate a new controller:

php line make:controller TodoController

Edit the file src/http/controllers/TodoController.php:

namespace App\Http\Controllers;

use App\Models\Todo;
use Lithe\Http\Request;
use Lithe\Http\Response;

class TodoController
{
    public static function index(Request $req, Response $res)
    {
        return $res->view('todo.index');
    }

    public static function list(Request $req, Response $res)
    {
        $todos = Todo::all();
        return $res->json($todos);
    }

    public static function store(Request $req, Response $res)
    {
        $data = (array) $req->body();
        $todo = Todo::create($data);
        $success = $todo ? true : false;

        return $res->json([
            'success' => $success,
            'message' => $success ? 'Task created successfully' : 'Failed to create task',
            'todo' => $todo
        ]);
    }

    public static function update(Request $req, Response $res)
    {
        $id = $req->param('id');
        $data = (array) $req->body();
        $success = Todo::update($id, $data);

        return $res->json([
            'success' => $success,
            'message' => $success ? 'Task updated successfully' : 'Failed to update task'
        ]);
    }

    public static function delete(Request $req, Response $res)
    {
        $id = $req->param('id');
        $success = Todo::delete($id);

        return $res->json([
            'success' => $success,
            'message' => $success ? 'Task removed successfully' : 'Failed to remove task'
        ]);
    }
}

Creating the Views

Create the src/views/todo directory and add the index.php file:

<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
    <title>TodoList with Lithe</title>
    <meta charset="UTF-8">
    <meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width, initial-scale=1.0">
    <style>

            font-family: -apple-system, BlinkMacSystemFont, "Segoe UI", Roboto, sans-serif;
        }

        body {

            background-color: #ffffff;
            padding: 20px;

<h2>
  
  
  Setting Up the Routes
</h2>

<p>Update the src/App.php file to include the TodoList routes:<br>
</p>

<pre class="brush:php;toolbar:false">use App\Http\Controllers\TodoController;

$app = new \Lithe\App;

// Route for the main page
$app->get('/', [TodoController::class, 'index']);

// API routes
$app->get('/todos/list', [TodoController::class, 'list']);
$app->post('/todos', [TodoController::class, 'store']);
$app->put('/todos/:id', [TodoController::class, 'update']);
$app->delete('/todos/:id', [TodoController::class, 'delete']);

$app->listen();

Running the Application

To start the development server, run:

php line serve

Access http://localhost:8000 in your browser to see the application in action.

Implemented Features

Our TodoList has the following features:

1. Listing tasks in reverse chronological order
2. Adding new tasks
3. Marking tasks as completed/pending
4. Removing tasks
5. Responsive and user-friendly interface
6. Visual feedback for all actions
7. Error handling

Conclusion

You now have a fully functional TodoList application built with Lithe. This example demonstrates how to create a modern web application with PHP, including:

• Proper MVC code structure
• RESTful API implementation
• Interactive user interface
• Database integration
• Error handling
• User feedback

From here, you can expand the application by adding new features such as:

• User authentication
• Task categorization
• Due dates
• Filters and search
