polaris/psr15

The PSR-15 face of Polaris for PHP: a router over the endpoint manifest, the ordered middleware stack (client context, rate limits, bearer and MFA-ticket authentication, step-up, denylist, authorization) and the request handler that runs the endpoints. It works with any PSR-15 host: Slim, Mezzio, or a framework through its PSR-7 bridge.

Terminal window
composer require polaris/psr15

This brings polaris/core; you also need a PSR-17 response factory (nyholm/psr7, laminas/laminas-diactoros, slim/psr7, …).

use Polaris\Psr15\Pipeline;
$pipeline = new Pipeline($polaris->graph(), $responseFactory, pathPrefix: '/');
$pipeline->middleware(); // list<MiddlewareInterface>, in execution order
$pipeline->handler(); // RequestHandlerInterface serving every route of the manifest
$pipeline->handle($request); // or run the whole stack yourself

On Slim, for instance (the full demo is examples/slim):

foreach (array_reverse($pipeline->middleware()) as $middleware) { // Slim runs the last-added first
$app->add($middleware);
}
$app->any('/{path:.*}', fn($request) => $pipeline->handler()->handle($request));

The middleware reads each route’s policy (auth, rate_limit, step_up, required permissions) from the manifest, so nothing is configured per route. Your own middleware can read the request attributes named in Polaris\Http\Attributes: TOKEN (the verified token), IP_ADDRESS, USER_AGENT.
