REST API in a Box
=================

[](#rest-api-in-a-box)

The `OutlandishRestBundle` provides a REST-like API for the Doctrine entities in a Symfony application. It is highly opinionated and requires no configuration which makes it an excellent choice for rapid prototyping with JavaScript frameworks such as Angular, Ember and Backbone.

Features:

- automatically generates routes
- uses JMSSerializer bundle
- uses Symfony validator component
- serializes errors and exceptions
- supports Doctrine associations
- uses JSON only
- pagination
- simple data queries using FIQL
- authentication can be added using the security component

For example if you have `Acme\FooBundle\Entity\Bar` then you can do the following:

```
GET /api/bar
// returns [{"id":1, ...}, {"id":2, ...}]

GET /api/bar/1
// returns {"id":1, ...}

POST /api/bar
{"foo":"baz", ...}
// returns {"id":3, "foo":"baz", ...}

PUT /api/bar/2
{"foo":"buzz", ...}
// returns {"id":2, "foo":"buzz", ...}

DELETE /api/bar/3
// returns nothing

GET /api/bar?id=gt=2&foo=baz
// returns [{"id":3, ...}]

GET /api/bar?per_page=2&offset=1
// returns [{"id":2, ...}, {"id":3, ...}]

GET /api/bar/0
// returns [{"message":"Entity not found"}]

```

POST and PUT requests expect JSON encoded entity data in the request body.

On error, a status code of 400, 404 or 500 is returned and the response body is an array of messages.
