Laravel Mobile API
==================

[](#laravel-mobile-api)

Prerequisite
============

[](#prerequisite)

This package requires a basic understanding of [Laravel Passport](https://laravel.com/docs/5.6/passport).

Installation
------------

[](#installation)

1. Add this package in your project.
2. Now add the trait `CanHaveAPIEndPoints` in the controller that will contribute in the mobile service. You can also add this trait in the base controller and use it. Now you can use **returnFormattedResponse** method to send the respose. This function will check the request and send the reponse accordingly.

#### Handling web responses only

[](#handling-web-responses-only)

The first argument is the array of data you pass to the view. The second argument is the view name.

```
return $this->returnFormattedResponse(['projects' => $projects], 'project.index');
```

#### Handling both web and API responses

[](#handling-both-web-and-api-responses)

Use two closures for sending different responses for web and api.

```
return $this->returnFormattedResponse(
    function () {
       // api response here
    },

    function () {
       // web response here
    }
);
```

Exception Handling
------------------

[](#exception-handling)

For clear error responses you need to add the trait in the **App\\Exceptions\\Handler** class and add the following code snippt in report method.

```
public function render($request, Exception $exception)
{
    if($this->isApi()) {
        return $this->renderErrorResponseForAPI($exception);
    }
    return parent::render($request, $exception);
}

```

Auth Middleware
---------------

[](#auth-middleware)

If you want to set the auth user for every authenticated route then add `RestApiMiddleware` in your project and apply in on routes.

In kernel.php

```
'restapi' => ColoredCow\LaravelMobileAPI\RestAPIMiddleware::class,
```

In routes/api.php file

```
Route::group(['middleware' => ['auth:api', 'restapi:auth'] ], function () {
    // routes
});
```
