            'zPetr\\HtmlNegotiation',

Templates

Layout

If you want to personalize custom layout template:

1. Copy default zpetr/apigility-htmlnegotiation/view/layout.phtml template to the view folder of your module (why not to Application module)
2. Add this to module config:

	...
	'view_manager' => array(
		'template_map' => array(
			'zpetr/htmlnegotiation/layout'	=> __DIR__ . '/../view/layout.phtml',
		),
		'template_path_stack' => array(
			__DIR__ . '/../view',
		),
	),

API response templates

To customize any API template:

1. Create view folder in your API directory. For example, if you have API named Foo with REST service named Bar, create:

   module/Foo/src/Foo/V1/Rest/Bar/view/

2. Create get.phtml for Entity template and get_list.phtml for Collection template. You can use default ones from zpetr/apigility-htmlnegotiation/view/zf/rest/ folder.
