README

This bundle provide fast and simple way to generate REST api for your project entities without editing configs and creating any controllers.

Feautures:

• CRUD web api
• Independent from other bundles and do not required bundles like FOSRestBundle or JMSSerializerBundle, etc..
• Built-in pagination and ordering

Installation

• Download via composer

$ composer require jmd/rest-bundle

• Add into app/AppKernel.php:

public function registerBundles()
    {
        $bundles = array(
			...
            new JMD\RestBundle\JMDRestBundle(),
			...
        );
	    ...

        return $bundles;
    }

• Add into app/config/routing.yml:

jmd_rest:
    resource: "@JMDRestBundle/Controller/RestController.php"
    type:     annotation
    prefix:   /api

Usage

Update, delete and add methods you can use as is after installation.

Api routes:

Route parameters:

1. bundleName - name of entity bundle
2. entityName - name of entity
3. id - entity item id

How to add or update item:

Request headers must have Content-Type equals application/json. For update any field in entity we must construct there json structure:

{
	"fieldName": "value",
	"fieldName2": "value"
}

Updating and posting supports relations. To save relations we have to set json like:

{
	"relationFieldToMany": [id1,id2],
	"relationFieldToOne": id3
}

How to show item or items:

For showing item in entity repository we must implement \JMD\RestBundle\Entity\RestEntityInterface and make methods:

• findAllArray(array $order = []) - must return query builder. Example:

public function findAllArray(array $order = [])
{
		$qb = $this->createQueryBuilder('c');

		$qb->select('partial c.{id,name}');

		return $qb;
}

• findOneArray($id) - must return array or null result. Example:

public function findOneArray($id)
{
		$qb = $this->createQueryBuilder('c');

		$qb
				->select('partial c.{id,name}')
				->where('c.id = :id')
				->setParameter('id', $id)
		;

		return $qb->getQuery()->getOneOrNullResult(AbstractQuery::HYDRATE_ARRAY);
}

After you make implementation, you can send GET request and will get result like this:

# url: http://localhost/api/BundleName/Client
{
	"status": 200,
	"data": [
		{
			"id": 1,
			"name": "Test client"
		},
		{
			"id": 2,
			"name": "Test client 2"
		}
	]
}

# url: http://localhost/api/BundleName/Client/1
{
	"status": 200,
	"data":  {
		"id": 1,
		"name": "Test client"
	}
}

That's all!
