Requirements

Requirement	Version
PHP	>= 7.4

Quick Start

composer require millipress/millibase

use MilliBase\Manager;

$manager = new Manager([
    'slug'           => 'my-plugin',
    'option_name'    => 'my_plugin_settings',
    'page_title'     => 'My Plugin',
    'menu_title'     => 'My Plugin',
    'rest_namespace' => 'my-plugin/v1',
    'basename'       => plugin_basename(__FILE__),
    'header'         => ['title' => 'My Plugin Settings'],
    'tabs'           => [
        [
            'name'     => 'general',
            'title'    => 'General',
            'sections' => [
                [
                    'id'     => 'main',
                    'title'  => 'Main Settings',
                    'fields' => [
                        [
                            'key'     => 'general.enabled',
                            'type'    => 'toggle',
                            'label'   => 'Enable Feature',
                            'default' => true,
                        ],
                    ],
                ],
            ],
        ],
    ],
]);

// Programmatic access:
$manager->settings()->get('general.enabled'); // true

Features

• Declarative schema — define tabs, sections, and fields in PHP arrays
• React admin UI — auto-generated from the schema using @wordpress/components
• 9 built-in field types — text, number, password, toggle, select, unit, token-list, color, code
• Custom extensibility — register custom field types and custom tab components from JS
• Conditional display — show/hide fields based on other settings values
• Settings priority — constants > config file > database > defaults
• Encryption — automatic sodium encryption for sensitive fields (keys prefixed with enc_)
• Config file sync — write settings to PHP files for pre-WordPress access
• Backup & restore — transient-based backup with 12-hour expiry
• Import / export — settings serialization with encryption handling
• Tab overrides — add-on plugins can extend or replace tabs and sections via filters
• REST API — save, reset, restore, status, and custom action endpoints
