Example of a PHP-based Laravel application containing real world examples (CRUD, auth, advanced patterns, etc) that adheres to the RealWorld API spec.
This codebase was created to demonstrate a backend application built with Laravel framework including RESTful services, CRUD operations, authentication, routing, pagination, and more.
We've gone to great lengths to adhere to the Laravel framework community style guides & best practices.
For more information on how to this works with other frontends/backends, head over to the RealWorld repo.
How it works
The API is built with Laravel, making the most of the framework's features out-of-the-box.
The application is using a custom JWT auth implementation: app/Jwt.
Getting started
The preferred way of setting up the project is using Laravel Sail, for that you'll need Docker under Linux / macOS (or Windows WSL2).
Installation
Clone the repository and change directory:
git clone https://github.com/f1amy/laravel-realworld-example-app.git
cd laravel-realworld-example-app
Install dependencies (if you have composer locally):
composer create-project
Alternatively you can do the same with Docker:
docker run --rm -it \
--volume $PWD:/app \
--user $(id -u):$(id -g) \
composer create-project
Start the containers with PHP application and PostgreSQL database:
./vendor/bin/sail up -d
(Optional) Configure a Bash alias for sail command:
alias sail='[ -f sail ] && bash sail || bash vendor/bin/sail'
Migrate the database with seeding:
sail artisan migrate --seed
Usage
The API is available at http://localhost:3000/api (You can change the APP_PORT in .env file).
Run tests
sail artisan test
Run PHPStan static analysis
sail php ./vendor/bin/phpstan
OpenAPI specification (not ready yet)
Swagger UI will be live at http://localhost:3000/api/documentation.
For now, please visit the specification here.
