Welcome! 👋

Hi, I am Lesly Chuo. Checking out this PHP Development Stack challenge.

This is working standard PHP restfull API setup application with routing system. It serves data in a Javascript Object Notation (JSON) format which could easily be integrated in any application. Object Oriented Programming with namespace system is highly in use includeing features such as.

Workflow

Using PHP namespace system to organize an import class object into API.php page for further validation

// Importing Class Obj
use App\Config\Router;
// use App\Config\ErrorHandler;
use App\Controllers\ProductController;
use App\Controllers\CategoryController;
use App\Controllers\UserController;
use App\Config\CustomErrorValidator;

Routing

Object Oriented Programming provides a variety of methods and approach to resolve a coding procedue. Making use of PHP associative arrays and call_user custom fuctions make this process quite interesting..

// Sample Rout Display
$routes = array(

// Products
	   "GET@/api/products/books"	=> 	[ProductController::class, 'index'],
	"DELETE@/api/products/books" 	=> 	[ProductController::class, 'delete'],	// delete_key, auth_key

	  "POST@/api/category/books"	=> 	[CategoryController::class, 'update'],	// key, name, author, is_read

     "POST@/api/create/category"	=> 	[CategoryController::class, 'create'],	// name, author

// User
         "POST@/api/user/signup"	=> 	[UserController::class, 'signup'],	    // signup user data

          "POST@/api/user/login"	=> 	[UserController::class, 'login'],		// login user data
          /* ... */
);

Here we get a route mapped to a controller class pointing to a specific method in execution.

Error Handling

Custom errors and exception handling to catch customize and return errors or exceptions when need be

User Authentication

Full featured user signup/login registration system with token authentication

Resource Management

User data control, profile, create products and category pages
