📖 Documentation

This generator automatically creates a fully functional Object-Oriented PHP RESTful API that follows modern best practices : class autoloading, RESTful routing, input validation, CRUD management, and structured JSON responses. The generated API connects securely to a database via PDO, providing a robust and ready-to-use backend solution. Feel free to adapt the provided solution to your needs.

🛠️ Generated Files & Directories :

  • index.php
    Single entry point routing requests to appropriate controllers.
  • autoload.php
    Automatically loads your classes from controllers and models.
  • .htaccess
    Enables clean URLs and forces HTTPS for secure API communication.
  • config/database.php
    Database connection setup using PDO (adjust credentials accordingly).
  • controllers/
    Contains the controllers handling API logic for each endpoint.
  • models/
    Contains data models performing CRUD operations on the database.

🚀 Using the Generated API :

Endpoints use standard CRUD operations :

  • GET : Retrieve resources
    • GET /api/users retrieves all users.
    • GET /api/users/{id} retrieves a specific user.
  • POST : Create a new resource
    • POST /api/users with JSON body creates a new user.
  • PUT : Update an existing resource
    • PUT /api/users/{id} updates the user with the specified ID.
  • DELETE : Delete an existing resource
    • DELETE /api/users/{id} deletes the specified user.

🔒 Security and Best Practices :

  • Ensure HTTPS is always enabled for your API endpoints.
  • Update database credentials in config/database.php.
  • Handle sensitive data securely and validate inputs strictly.
