Person simple tools for building APIs template : console generator and API skeleton

Introduction

This package provides feature

1. Console generator which creates Controller, Fractal Transformer and routes in a single command.

Installation

1. Run composer require huangwalker/api-model-generator

2. Register a service provider in the app.php configuration file

<?php

'providers' => [
    ...
    'Huangwalker\Api\ServiceProvider',
],
?>

1. Copy basic folder structure to app/Api cp -R vendor/huangwalker/api-model-generator/templates/Api app/Api and check what you got there. If you need you can use different paths later.

Usage

Generator

The only console command that is added is artisan make:api <ModelName>.

Imagine you need to create a rest api to list/create/update etc users from users table. To achieve that you need to do lots of boilerplate operations - create controller, transformer, set up needed routes.

php artisan make:api User does all the work for you.

Configuration

All paths and generator's stubs are configurable.
