Usage
-----

[](#usage)

### Configuration

[](#configuration)

All configuration should be places in `config.php` file. To define new configuration parameters need to add definition in `App\Service\Provider\ConfigServiceProvider::$config`.

### Controllers

[](#controllers)

Controllers should inherit from `App\Controller\AbstractController` - this class implements several helper methods to simplify output from API. To register new controller need to add declaration in `App\Bootstrap::loadControllers()`.

### Routes

[](#routes)

Routes are defined in `App\Bootstrap::routes()`.

### Services

[](#services)

Services are registered via service providers in `App\Bootstrap::loadServices()`. Custom service providers should be placed in `App\Service\Provider` namespace.

### Database

[](#database)

All database mechanism is based on [Doctrine2](http://docs.doctrine-project.org/en/latest/) framework. There is dedicated namespace `App\Entity` for all doctrine classes (entities, repositories: `App\Entity\Repository` and migrations: `App\Entity\Migrations`).
