Decoupled-backend Starter Kit to use with Angular front-end decoupled project
###Getting Started
###1. Clone Repo
git clone --bare [email protected]:caxy/symfony-starter-kit.git
cd symfony-starter-kit
git push --mirror {NEW_GITHUB_REPO_LINK}
cd ../
rm -rf symfony-starter-kit
git clone {NEW_GITHUB_REPO_LINK}
cd {NEW_REPO_NAME}
###2. Install Packages & fill-out parameters
composer install
bash dev-setup.sh
###3. Setup Database & Load Fixtures
bin/console d:d:c
bin/console d:s:c
bin/console d:f:l -n
###4. Fix your permissions (advanced)
See Setting up Permissions in the Symfony book.
macOS
HTTPDUSER=`ps axo user,comm | grep -E '[a]pache|[h]ttpd|[_]www|[w]ww-data|[n]ginx' | grep -v root | head -1 | cut -d\ -f1`
sudo chmod -R +a "$HTTPDUSER allow delete,write,append,file_inherit,directory_inherit" var
sudo chmod -R +a "`whoami` allow delete,write,append,file_inherit,directory_inherit" var
Linux/BSD
HTTPDUSER=`ps axo user,comm | grep -E '[a]pache|[h]ttpd|[_]www|[w]ww-data|[n]ginx' | grep -v root | head -1 | cut -d\ -f1`
#if this doesn't work, try adding `-n` option
sudo setfacl -R -m u:"$HTTPDUSER":rwX -m u:`whoami`:rwX var
sudo setfacl -dR -m u:"$HTTPDUSER":rwX -m u:`whoami`:rwX var
###5. JWT Setup
mkdir -p var/jwt # For Symfony3+, no need of the -p option
openssl genrsa -out var/jwt/private.pem -aes256 4096
openssl rsa -pubout -in var/jwt/private.pem -out var/jwt/public.pem
###6. Important note for Apache Users
Apache server will strip any Authorization header not in a valid HTTP BASIC AUTH format.
If you intend to use the authorization header mode of this bundle (and you should), please add those rules to your VirtualHost configuration :
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{HTTP:Authorization} ^(.*)
RewriteRule .* - [e=HTTP_AUTHORIZATION:%1]
###7. Confirm
Run the Symfony built in web server with highest verbosity.
bin/console server:run -vvv
Then run a command that should return an authentication error:
curl https://localhost:8000/api/users/1
The response should be:
{"code":401,"message":"Invalid credentials"}
If PHP is misconfigured, it may report errors that include directions for changing the php.ini
file during
any of the above steps.
###8. Testing the API
To Test the built in tests run:
phpunit
First Generate a JWT Token, from Terminal:
#username can be any user in the database, user, admin, superadmin are available from the fixutres.
bin/console generate:token {username}
The output will give you a long string, copy that and paste it into the url where it says {INSERT TOKEN HERE}
To Test the API, browse to localhost:8000/api/doc?bearer={INSERT TOKEN HERE} Do not confuse this with localhost:8000/api, they are separate, and will not function without the JWT Token.
Once on localhost:8000/api/doc?bearer={INSERT TOKEN HERE}, You need to set the token again in the input in the upper right where it says 'api key:' and press save. Then you can start using endpoints.
