Contenta CMS

Contenta is a content API and CMS based on Drupal 8. It provides a standard, jsonapi-based platform for building decoupled applications and websites.

Install

Follow the documentation instructions to install Contenta CMS.

CURL

Once your site is running locally, you might want to use Curl to examine the pre-installed content:

curl --header 'Accept: application/vnd.api+json' http://127.0.0.1:8888/api/recipes

The result will be a list of recipes. Note that:

The Drupal implementation of the jsonapi uses entity uuids to identify individual content resources. Append a /{{uuid}} to the URL above to fetch a single recipe.
Contenta uses the JSON API Extras module to customize the URL to resources: /api/recipes instead of /jsonapi/node/recipes, for example. Contenta also configures JSON API Extras to customize the output of the request to eliminate unnecessary fields.

CORS

When you actually build a front-end you will likely have CORS (Cross-Origin Resource Sharing) issues.

In order to allow browsers to request the contenta back-end you need to:

Copy sites/default/default.services.yml to sites/default/services.yml
Allow your app to access it, by replacing the end of this configuration file.

  cors.config:
    enabled: true
    allowedHeaders:
      - '*'
    allowedMethods:
      - '*'
    allowedOrigins:
       # Note: you need to specify the host + port where your app will run.
      - localhost:8000
    exposedHeaders: false
    maxAge: false
    supportsCredentials: false

Run drush: cd <DESTINATION>/web && ../vendor/bin/drush cr
