unisys-api
==========

[](#unisys-api)

Unisys basic API skeleton developed by Unite.

Requirements
------------

[](#requirements)

Unisys API skeleton requires:

- PHP 7.1+
- Database that supports `json` fields such as MySQL 5.7 or higher.

It uses Laravel 5.6, so it has to meet also all its requirements .

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

[](#installation)

### New UniSys project

[](#new-unisys-project)

For clean API skeleton based on Laravel 5.6, you can use weareunite/unisys-installer that do all the boring work for you. Let's install it globally:

```
composer global require "weareunite/unisys-installer"

```

Now you can create a new Unisys skeleton:

```
unisys new project_name

```

This is going to install all dependencies, publish all important vendor configs, migrate, setup some configs and run migrations.

Command is going to generate and print the password for the default administrator account. Do not forget to remember this password

### Add Unisys to existing project

[](#add-unisys-to-existing-project)

Or alternatively, you can use your existing Laravel 5.6 application. Start with requiring these two main packages:

```
composer require weareunite/unisys-api

```

To install this package use:

```
php artisan unisys-api:init-env

```

and after:

```
php artisan unisys-api:install

```

This is going to install all dependencies, publish all important vendor configs, migrate, setup some configs, webpack config and run migrations.

Command is going to generate and print the password for the default administrator account. Save this password to your clipboard, we are going to need it soon.

Requirements
------------

[](#requirements-1)

Add your DSN to `.env`:

```
SENTRY_LARAVEL_DSN=https://public:secret@sentry.example.com/1

```

### Optimization tools

[](#optimization-tools)

Medialibrary will use these tools to [optimize converted images](https://docs.spatie.be/laravel-medialibrary/v7/converting-images/optimizing-converted-images) if they are present on your system:

- [JpegOptim](http://freecode.com/projects/jpegoptim)
- [Optipng](http://optipng.sourceforge.net/)
- [Pngquant 2](https://pngquant.org/)
- [SVGO](https://github.com/svg/svgo)
- [Gifsicle](http://www.lcdf.org/gifsicle/)

Here's how to install all the optimizers on Ubuntu:

```
sudo apt-get install jpegoptim
sudo apt-get install optipng
sudo apt-get install pngquant
sudo npm install -g svgo
sudo apt-get install gifsicle
```

And here's how to install the binaries on MacOS (using [Homebrew](https://brew.sh/)):

```
brew install jpegoptim
brew install optipng
brew install pngquant
brew install svgo
brew install gifsicle
```

To create derived images [GD](http://php.net/manual/en/book.image.php) should be installed on your server. For the creation of thumbnails of svg's or pdf's you should also install [Imagick](http://php.net/manual/en/imagick.setresolution.php).
