PHP renderer for dynamic insets

#Dynamic Inset PHP renderer ##A reference renderer for insets, in php

This php library is a reference implementation of a renderer for the inset.json spec.

The library takes a remote inset.json file, finds the data and template urls, requests them, and returns the rendered result. The individual assets are available after rendering for access or post-processing as well.

##Note: This library uses the mustache.php renderer, embedded in this repo for the time being. It will later be replaced by a Composer-compatible package.

###PHP library

<?php

    //include the inset rendering library
    require('lib/inset.php');

    //create a new inset
    $inset = new inset();

    //render the inset
    $rendered_inset = $inset->render('http://dynamic-insets.s3.amazonaws.com/example/inset.json');

    //output the inset
    echo $rendered_inset;
