A simple CRUD API example with Laravel, with Authentication. The idea was to use the basic features of the Laravel framework, like Sanctum for authentication, and Eloquent for the many-to-many relationship. For the sake of simplicity, every time you consult the API, it already brings the related domain (In this case, Books and Stores).

I thought in adding a "Active" verification in the Stores model, but I ran out of time. I've been working a lot recently.

After cloning the project, run the following commands:

docker-compose build
docker-compose up -d
docker exec app php artisan migrate

After running those commands, you should have a container running the application and another one running mysql database, and a Nginx server. You can test by running:

http://localhost:8989/

After running the docker-compose, and running the migration, just send a post request to: (you can use postman or insomnia)

http://localhost:8989/api/register

And then, post the following body as the example:

{
    "name": "Marcos R.",
    "email": "[email protected]",
    "password": "12345678"
}

Expect the following response: (with a diferent token)

{
	"access_token": "1|7WQJL7ud9k67uV82ybgzNOvwwbSO4O0yHIqprpxQ",
	"token_type": "Bearer"
}

Once you register, automatically the API logins you in. You will use the access_token to connect to the api and use the CRUD features.

If you're using Postman or Insomnia, add Accept application/json header in order to work, and the bearer token.

POST to http://localhost:8989/api/login

{
    "email": "[email protected]",
    "password": "12345678"
}

POST to http://localhost:8989/api/logout

• Need to add the bearer token

List: GET to http://localhost:8989/api/store/

Create: POST to http://localhost:8989/api/store

{
	"name":"Book Store",
	"address": "Adress line 2",
	"active": 1
}

Update: PUT to http://localhost:8989/api/store/{id}

{
	"name":"Book Store",
	"address": "Adress line 2",
	"active": 1
}

Delete: DELETE to http://localhost:8989/api/store/{id}

List: GET to http://localhost:8989/api/book/

Create: POST to http://localhost:8989/api/book

{
	"name":"Voyage to the center of the Earth",
	"ISBN": 111111111,
	"value": 10.5,
	"store_id": 1
}

Update: PUT to http://localhost:8989/api/book/{id}

{
	"name":"Voyage to the center of the Earth",
	"ISBN": 111111111,
	"value": 10.5,
	"store_id": 1
}

Delete: DELETE to http://localhost:8989/api/book/{id}

• Remember to add the bearer token in all api calls.

You can expect something like this when getting a response for a store listing:

[
	{
		"id": 1,
		"name": "Book Store",
		"address": "Adress line 2",
		"active": 1,
		"created_at": "2024-04-09T22:34:28.000000Z",
		"updated_at": "2024-04-09T22:34:28.000000Z",
		"books": [
			{
				"id": 1,
				"name": "Les Miserables",
				"ISBN": 111111111,
				"value": "13.50",
				"created_at": "2024-04-09T22:34:52.000000Z",
				"updated_at": "2024-04-09T22:34:52.000000Z",
				"pivot": {
					"store_id": 1,
					"book_id": 1
				}
			},
			{
				"id": 2,
				"name": "Voyage to the center of the Earth",
				"ISBN": 111111111,
				"value": "10.50",
				"created_at": "2024-04-09T22:35:01.000000Z",
				"updated_at": "2024-04-09T22:53:20.000000Z",
				"pivot": {
					"store_id": 1,
					"book_id": 2
				}
			}
		]
	}
]
