It is based on larave 5.4! It is built on top of three packages: - JWT-Auth - [tymondesigns/jwt-auth](https://github.com/tymondesigns/jwt-auth) - Dingo API - [dingo/api](https://github.com/dingo/api) - Laravel-CORS [barryvdh/laravel-cors](http://github.com/barryvdh/laravel-cors) What I made is an integration of these three packages and a setup of some authentication and credentials recovery methods. Installation ------------ [](#installation) 1. run `composer create-project jafar690/laravel-api-jwt-starter yourProjectName`; 2. have a coffee, nothing to do here; Once the project creation procedure will be completed, run the `php artisan migrate` command to install the required tables. Main Features ------------- [](#main-features) ### Ready-To-Use Authentication Controllers [](#ready-to-use-authentication-controllers) You don't have to worry about authentication and password recovery anymore. I created four controllers you can find in the `App\Http\Controllers\Auth\` for those operations. For each controller there's an already setup route in `routes/api.php` file: - `POST api/auth/login`, to do the login and get your access token; - `POST api/auth/register`, to create a new user into your application; - `POST api/auth/recovery`, to recover your credentials; - `POST api/auth/reset`, to reset your password after the recovery; ### A Separate File for Routes [](#a-separate-file-for-routes) All the API routes can be found in the `routes/api.php` file. This also follow the Laravel 5.3 convention. ### On create project commands [](#on-create-project-commands) Every time you create a new project starting from this repository,the `php artisan jwt:generate` command will be executed. Configuration ------------- [](#configuration) This boilerplate is based on *dingo/api* and *tymondesigns/jwt-auth* packages. So, you can find many informations about configuration [here](https://github.com/tymondesigns/jwt-auth/wiki/Configuration) and [here](https://github.com/dingo/api/wiki/Configuration). I have made some minor changes to the DINGO API configuration file in *config/api.php* - `sign_up.release_token`: set it to `true` if you want your app release the token right after the sign up process; - `reset_password.release_token`: set it to `true` if you want your app release the token right after the password reset process; I have also created form requests for every action (login, register, recovery and reset). Feel free to customize it for your needs. Creating Endpoints ------------------ [](#creating-endpoints) You can create endpoints in the same way you could to with using the single *dingo/api* package. You can [read its documentation](https://github.com/dingo/api/wiki/Creating-API-Endpoints) for details. After all, that's just a boilerplate! :) However, I added some example routes to the `routes/api.php` file to give you immediately an idea. Cross Origin Resource Sharing ----------------------------- [](#cross-origin-resource-sharing) If you want to enable CORS for a specific route or routes group, you just have to use the *cors* middleware on them. Thanks to the *barryvdh/laravel-cors* package, you can handle CORS easily. Just check [the docs at this page](https://github.com/barryvdh/laravel-cors) for more info.
