README

Restapi bundle is a Symfony / Doctrine based REST API library, written in PHP 8.

Requirements

• php 8.1
• composer
• symfony 6.1

Installation

composer require tims3l/restapi-bundle:dev-develop
cp vendor/tims3l/restapi-bundle/config/packages/tims3l_restapi.yaml config/packages/tims3l_restapi.yaml
bin/console cache:clear

Usage

You can quickly create HTTP endpoints, based on REST principles. The RestApi class is responsible for the standard CRUD operation through HTTP endpoints.

• Create a Doctrine entity in App\Entity namespace.
  • It is important to use the #[Api] attribute on your entity.
  • You can see a demo Product entity here.
• Extend Tims3l\Repository\AbstractRepostory in App\Repository namespace.
  • You can use this ProductRepository class as an example.
• And that's it, you can use the standard CRUD endpoints (POST, PUT, GET, DELETE) on your new entity. The underlying logic makes sure that all of your endpoints will respond with the same JSON format, and can be called in the same way.

Sample REST API with a product entity

Insert product

• POST /product
  • Header
    • Content-Type: application/x-www-form-urlencoded
  • Data
    • sku: sku-1
    • name: one
    • description: desc-one
    • price: 1000
• Sample response (HTTP Status code: 201 Created)

{
	"success": true,
	"data": [
		{
			"id": 1,
			"name": "one",
			"sku": "sku-one",
			"description": "desc-one",
			"price": 1000
		}
	],
	"errors": []
}

List products

• GET /product
• Sample response (HTTP Status code: 200 OK)

{
	"success": true,
	"data": [
		{
			"id": 1,
			"name": "one",
			"sku": "sku-one",
			"description": "desc-one",
			"price": 1000
		},
		{
			"id": 2,
			"name": "two",
			"sku": "sku-two",
			"description": "desc-two",
			"price": 2000
		}
	],
	"errors": []
}

Show one product

• GET /product/{id}
• Sample response (HTTP Status code: 200 OK)

{
	"success": true,
	"data": [
		{
			"id": 1,
			"name": "one",
			"sku": "sku-one",
			"description": "desc-one",
			"price": 1000
		}
	],
	"errors": []
}

Modify product

• PUT /product/{id}
  • Header
    • Content-Type: application/x-www-form-urlencoded
  • Data
    • description: modified-desc
• Sample response (HTTP Status code: 200 OK)

{
	"success": true,
	"data": [
		{
			"id": 1,
			"name": "one",
			"sku": "sku-one",
			"description": "modified-desc",
			"price": 1000
		}
	],
	"errors": []
}

Remove product

• DELETE /product/{id}
  • Header
    • Content-Type: application/x-www-form-urlencoded
  • Data
    • description: modified-desc
• Response is always empty (HTTP Status code: 204 No Content)

Tests

Unit

These tests ensure that individual units of source code (e.g. a single class) behave as intended.

You can run unit tests with the following command:

vendor/bin/phpunit tests/Unit

Application

Application tests test the behavior of a complete application. They make HTTP requests (both real and simulated ones) and test that the response is as expected.

You can quickly test your new endpoints using the AbstractApiTest class.

• Simply extend a new final class from the AbstractApiTest class.
• Customize the testPostProvider() methods based on your needs.
• Simply run the new test with the following command:
  • vendor/bin/phpunit tests/Application

Note: HTTP server must be running to process application tests.
