A toolkit for creating APIs in Laravel

A toolkit for creating APIs in Laravel.

Installation

You can install the package via composer:

composer require juststeveking/laravel-api-toolkit

You can publish the config file with:

php artisan vendor:publish --provider="JustSteveKing\Laravel\ApiToolkit\ApiToolkitServiceProvider" --tag="config"

This is the contents of the published config file:

return [
    'resource_name' => '%sResource',
    'policy_name' => '%sPolicy',
    'seeder_name' => '%sSeeder',
    'controllers' => [
        [
            'name' => 'IndexController',
            'options' => [
                '--invokable',
            ]
        ],
        [
            'name' => 'CreateController',
            'options' => [
                '--invokable',
            ]
        ],
        [
            'name' => 'ShowController',
            'options' => [
                '--invokable',
            ]
        ],
        [
            'name' => 'UpdateController',
            'options' => [
                '--invokable',
            ]
        ],
        [
            'name' => 'DeleteController',
            'options' => [
                '--invokable',
            ]
        ],
    ],
    'form_requests' => [
        'CreateRequest',
        'UpdateRequest',
    ],
];

Usage

To get starteed using this, there is only one command you really need to worry about: api-toolkit:resource.

The only option you need to pass it is the eloquent Model you wish to create and create the APi blueprint for.

php artisan api-toolkit:resource Post

The above command will generate:

• app/Models/Post.php
• app/Policies/PostPolicy.php - Class name can be altered in config
