REST API starter

A simple Drupal 8 install profile that highlights RESTful interactions with Drupal.

Install

1. Install and initialize.

   $> npm install
   $> grunt

2. Install the site. Change db url as needed

   $> drush @restapi si --db-url=mysql://restapi:restapi@localhost/restapi -y

3. Create a user and give them admin (alternatively, configure permissions for another role)

   $> drush ucrt --mail=example@example.com --password=pass mytestuser
   $> drush user-add-role administrator --name=mytestuser

4. Create content

   $>  curl --include   --request POST   --user mytestuser:pass \
       --header 'Content-type: application/hal+json'   http://restapi.devl/entity/node \
       --data-binary '{"_links":{"type":{"href":"http://restapi.devl/rest/type/node/page"}}, "title":[{"value":"test title"}]}'
