README

This Laravel package provides an API Documentation generator based upon your Routes and Controller Method DocBlock comments. Packagist: https://packagist.org/packages/codev/apidocs

Installation

Laravel 5.0 -> 8.0

Begin by installing this package through Composer. Edit your project's composer.json file to require codev-vn/apidocs.

composer require --dev codev/apidocs

Next, update Composer from the Terminal:

composer update

Once the packaage has installed, the final step is to add the service provider. Open config/app.php, and add a new item to the providers array.

'Codev\Apidocs\ApidocsServiceProvider',

Run the artisan command from the Terminal to see the new apidocs command.

php artisan apidocs:generate

Create a copy of the API Docs Config by running this artisan command:

php artisan vendor:publish

Notes

Route Prefix

Create a prefix for your routes with an API Version. i.e. 'api/v1

Route::group(['prefix' => 'api/v1'], function(){
     // ...
});

######## Laravel 5.4 defaults to api prefix (Route::prefix('api')). If your routes/api.php looks like this...

Route::group(['prefix' => 'v1'], function(){
     // ...
});

... then the route for the generate command would be api/v1 Otherwise it will be just api

DocBlock Example

Below is a docBlock example.

/**
* Display the specified resource.
* GET /user/{id}
*
* @param  int  $id  The id of a User
* @return Response
*/
public function show($id)
{
    // Display User
}
