Documentation for the new version is available on our new website [laraveljsonapi.io](https://laraveljsonapi.io) and the code is now developed under the [Laravel JSON:API Github organisation.](https://github.com/laravel-json-api) The `cloudcreativity/laravel-json-api` package is now considered to be the *legacy* package. As we know it is in use in a lot of production applications, it will continue to receive bug fixes and updates for new Laravel versions. However, it is no longer supported for new features. If you are starting a new project, you MUST use the [new package `laravel-json-api/laravel`.](https://github.com/laravel-json-api/laravel) Introduction ------------ [](#introduction) Build feature-rich and standards-compliant APIs in Laravel. This package provides all the capabilities you need to add [JSON API](http://jsonapi.org)compliant APIs to your application.

The following additional features are also supported: - Full support for Eloquent resources, with features such as: - Automatic eager loading when including related resources. - Easy relationship end-points. - Soft-deleting and restoring Eloquent resources. - Page and cursor based pagination. - Asynchronous processing. - Support multiple media-types within your API. - Generators for all the classes you need to add a resource to your API. ### What is JSON API? [](#what-is-json-api) From [jsonapi.org](http://jsonapi.org) > If you've ever argued with your team about the way your JSON responses should be formatted, JSON API is your anti-bikeshedding weapon. > > By following shared conventions, you can increase productivity, take advantage of generalized tooling, and focus on what matters: your application. Clients built around JSON API are able to take advantage of its features around efficiently caching responses, sometimes eliminating network requests entirely. For full information on the spec, plus examples, see .
