What are some best practices for standardizing module integration in PHP?

Standardizing module integration in PHP involves creating a consistent structure for modules, defining clear interfaces, and using autoloading to manage dependencies. This helps improve code maintainability, readability, and reusability. 

// Example of a standardized module integration using autoloading

// Define a namespace for the module
namespace MyModule;

// Define an interface for the module
interface ModuleInterface {
    public function doSomething();
}

// Implement the interface in the module class
class MyModule implements ModuleInterface {
    public function doSomething() {
        // Module logic here
    }
}

// Use autoloading to load the module class
spl_autoload_register(function ($class) {
    $class = str_replace('\\', '/', $class);
    require_once __DIR__ . '/modules/' . $class . '.php';
});

// Create an instance of the module and use it
$module = new MyModule();
$module->doSomething();
