PSR And PER Index
PHP-FIG publishes PSRs and PERs that describe shared interfaces and recommendations used across the PHP ecosystem. Apply a standard when it solves an interoperability problem; do not treat every document as mandatory for every project.
Use This Reference When
- Choosing a logging interface such as PSR-3.
- Understanding autoloading, HTTP-message, cache, or container abstractions.
- Reading framework and library documentation.
Common Standards To Recognise
PSR-3 Logger Interface
PSR-4 Autoloader
PSR-7 HTTP Message Interfaces
PSR-11 Container Interface
PSR-16 Simple Cache
Check each document’s status and scope on PHP-FIG. A coding-style standard and an interoperability interface solve different problems.
Practice
Choose a Relevant PSR
For logging, autoloading, and HTTP request objects, identify the relevant PSR and explain the integration benefit.
Show solution
Use PSR-3 for logging, PSR-4 for autoloading, and PSR-7 for HTTP message interfaces. The value is shared vocabulary and compatible implementations.
