- If you want to generate the API quickly from just Eloquent Model, there's a new tool for that. I've tried it out.

Overall it looks good but fir advanced things we should dig deeper for it
you can get the typical Laravel api response by uncommenting jsonapi in the formats key in api-platform.php in config

Nice to know for the simple update/create. Although I'm using V1 in the path of my biggest API project...
Are there any filters or relationship parameters for the index/list endpoint?
I guess you should read the docs to find out, or try it out yourself.
Great review. Could you mention alternative packages or approaches to update/enrich a current project with API features?
most common way is to use l5-swagger package and manually write OpenApi annotations for controller methods, model resources etc. then it generates swagger ui.
I have followed your Mini CRM tutorial, and of course I want to develop the API for the mobile app. But from this video, I think API Platform is not the good choice because of the limitation and "weird way" you mentioned. So, what are the other good choice to develop the API for Mini CRM?
By manually coding it with Laravel?
Looks nice, but in real life APIs usually contains way more complex logic...
It looks good and great but can we add different methods? It only works for crud operation. Is it possible to add methods like getCustomerDetail or something? If it's possible, where do we write it? or did it detect from the controller methods?
Good question, I didn't dig deeper, I guess you should read the docs to find the answer.
@@LaravelDaily Ya I will check more into it.
You should have a CustomerDetailController instead
what is that mysql app that he's using ?
Table Plus
Not much support for Laravel, if you look deep in docs it tells how to do for Symphony but not for Laravel.
This entire project is an anti-pattern because it is a continuation of the mistaken philosophy that a REST resource is a DB table and that a model is just an interface for a DB table.
Using models to describe endpoints instead of DTOs is really dumb. Using CRUD is simplistic to the point of being useless. Not using HyperMedia-based responses is dumb. Everything about it, at this release version, is useless
You should also look at the code, for example in the main directory of api-platform/laravel there is a `ApiPlatformProvider`, that in the register mehtod binds a Laravel Singleton called `ResourceMetadataCollectionFactoryInterface` - that has over 15 levels of nesting.
