The Laravel Light API package is designed to assist users in creating APIs for all Models in Laravel. With this package, you can easily generate API routes for your models, saving you time and effort.

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

[](#installation)

To install the package, run the following command in your Laravel project:

```
$ composer require manianrezaei/laravel-light-api
```

Once the package is installed, you can start using it by following these steps:

1. Publish package vendors:

    ```
    $ php artisan vendor:publish
    ```

then select package provider `ManianRezaei\LaravelLightApi\providers\ApiLightServiceProvider`

2. Optimize the API routes using the following command:

    ```
      $ php artisan optimize
    ```
3. Thats it! You now have API routes and controllers set up for all your models.

Usage
-----

[](#usage)

Laravel Light Api endpoint is `/apilight` by default

To change the endpoint and configure the accessable models, see the `config/apilight.php` .

Set the base endpoint:

```
 'endpoint' => "/apilight",
```

List of models can access by api

```
'permissions'=>[
       "usr"=> [
            "model"=> \App\Models\User::class,
            "allowlist" =>[
                'id',
                'updated_at',
                'created_at'
            ]
        ]
    ]
```

**"Permissions"** contains an array of models that are allowed in LightAPI.

To keep the models' names hidden, you can specify an alias. In the example above, **"usr"** is an alias for the **User** model, and the endpoint for this model will be /apilight/**usr**.

All selectable fields should be added to the **allowlist**.

Custom selection
----------------

[](#custom-selection)

By default, LightAPI selects all whitelisted fields in each query.

Selected fields can be specified in the query string like this:

`/apilight/usr?select=id,created_at`
