Laravel Api Response

This package gives you an easier way to return RESTful API response.

Installation

Install by composer

    $ composer require chhw/api-response

If you are under Laravel 5.5, please add this code in config/app.php below.

    <?php
        'providers' => [
            CHHW\ApiResponse\ApiResponseServiceProvider::class,
        ],
    ?>

[Option] Get response config to customize debug message.

    $ php artisan vendor:publish --provider="CHHW\ApiResponse\ApiResponseServiceProvider"

Also support Lumen now!!

In bootstrap/app.php, you should:

1. add $app->register(CHHW\ApiResponse\ApiResponseServiceProvider::class);

[Option] Get response config to customize debug message.

    $ cp vendor/chhw/api-response/src/config/response.php config/response.php

Usage

Should be used in your controller.

Define:

You can choose what you prefer:

1. construct: $this->response = new ApiResponse
2. injection: ApiResponse $response

Example:

General

 // You can set header and option in construct.
$this->response->setHeader(["lang" => "en"])->setOption(JSON_UNESCAPED_UNICODE);

// Basic usage.
return $this->response->success([1, 2])->json();
return $this->response->error("Oh no")->json();

// Custom status and code.
return $this->response->success([1, 2], 201, "code201")->json();
return $this->response->error("Oh no", 501, "code501")->json();

Inline

return $this->response->success([1, 2])->setHeader(["lang" => "en"])->setOption(JSON_UNESCAPED_UNICODE)->json();
return $this->response->error("Oh no", 501, "code501")->setHeader(["lang" => "en"])->setOption(JSON_UNESCAPED_UNICODE)->json();

[Option] Custom debug message:

If you have custom code, by default it will match config/response.php settings for debug message:

// Controller
return $this->response->error([1, 2], 500, 'custom500')->json();

// config/response.php
return [
    'code' => [
        'custom500' => 'Internal Server Error',
    ]
];
