Todolist-backend Application

pipeline status Donate

Backend for https://github.com/guillaumebriday/todolist-frontend-vuejs app, built for a serie of articles on my blog.

The purpose of this repository is to provide API with Laravel 5.8 and connecting JavaScript front-end frameworks like Vue.js 2 or other clients to them.

Beside Laravel, this project uses other tools like :

Installation

Development environment requirements :

Setting up your development environment on your local machine :

$ git clone https://github.com/guillaumebriday/todolist-backend-laravel.git
$ cd todolist-backend-laravel
$ cp .env.example .env
$ docker-compose run --rm --no-deps todolist-server composer install
$ docker-compose run --rm --no-deps todolist-server php artisan key:generate
$ docker-compose run --rm --no-deps todolist-server php artisan jwt:secret
$ docker-compose up -d

Before starting

You need to run the migrations :

$ docker-compose run --rm todolist-server php artisan migrate

Seed the database :

$ docker-compose run --rm todolist-server php artisan db:seed

This will create a new user that you can use to sign in :

Email : [email protected]
Password : 4nak1n

Useful commands

Running tests :

$ docker-compose run --rm todolist-server ./vendor/bin/phpunit --cache-result --order-by=defects --stop-on-defect

Running php-cs-fixer :

$ docker-compose run --rm --no-deps todolist-server ./vendor/bin/php-cs-fixer fix --config=.php_cs --verbose --dry-run --diff

Generating backup :

$ docker-compose run --rm todolist-server php artisan backup:run --only-db

Discover package

$ docker-compose run --rm --no-deps todolist-server php artisan package:discover

Generating fake data :

$ docker-compose run --rm todolist-server php artisan db:seed --class=DevDatabaseSeeder

Accessing the API

Clients can access to the REST API. API requests require authentication via JWT. You can create a new one with you credentials.

$ curl -X POST http://localhost:8000/api/v1/auth/login -d "email=your_email&password=your_password"

Then, you can use this token either as url parameter or in Authorization header :

# Url parameter
curl -X POST http://localhost:8000/api/v1/auth/me?token=your_jwt_token_here

# Authorization Header
curl -X POST --header "Authorization: Bearer your_jwt_token_here" http://localhost:8000/api/v1/auth/me

API are prefixed by api and the API version number like so v1.

Do not forget to set the X-Requested-With header to XMLHttpRequest. Otherwise, Laravel won't recognize the call as an AJAX request.

To list all the available routes for API :

$ docker-compose run --rm --no-deps todolist-server php artisan route:list

You can import my Insomnia workspace configured to work with the API : .insomnia/todolist-backend-laravel.json.

Broadcasting & WebSockets

Before using WebSockets, you need to set the PUSHER related keys in your .env file.

You could find this keys on https://pusher.com/.

You also need to set the BROADCAST_DRIVER key :

BROADCAST_DRIVER=pusher

You can deploy this application with Ansible.

Copy the hosts example file and change the values to your needs :

$ cp hosts.example hosts

Setup your variables in the playbook.yml.

And then run :

$ ansible-playbook -i hosts playbook.yml

Build the images :

$ docker build -f .cloud/docker/Dockerfile.prod --target application -t todolist-backend-laravel-application .

$ docker build -f .cloud/docker/Dockerfile.prod --target nginx -t todolist-backend-laravel-nginx .

Run the containers :

$ docker run --rm -it --name todolist-server --link some-mysql:mysql --env-file .env --network todolist-backend todolist-backend-laravel-application

$ docker run --rm -it -p 8000:8000 --network todolist-backend todolist-backend-laravel-nginx
