The current project consists of two standalone PHP files placed in a single folder.

While functional, the structure makes the code harder to maintain, test, and extend.

This issue proposes reorganizing the project into a proper PHP package with clear separation of concerns, autoloading, and automated tests.

Goals

Introduce a clean, conventional project structure
Separate CLI logic, API client logic, configuration handling, and logging
Add Composer for autoloading and dependency management
Make the Porkbun API wrapper testable
Add PHPUnit tests for core functionality
Prepare the project for future enhancements (retry logic, better error handling, etc.)

Proposed Tasks

Create a standard PHP project layout
Refactor existing code into classes
Introduce Composer
Add unit tests
Improve error handling
Update README.md

Expected Outcome

A maintainable, testable, and extensible PHP project that follows modern best practices. The codebase becomes easier to reason about, safer to modify, and ready for future features such as retries, logging improvements, or additional Porkbun API endpoints.
