or add

"esempla/yii2-rest-generator": "1.0.*"

to the `require` section of your composer.json file.

Migrations

The extension has been created with database table. You should execute database migrations.(PostgreSQL ® recommended)

 php yii migrate/up  --migrationPath="vendor/esempla/yii2-rest-generator/src/migrations" 

Module

The extension has been created as a module. You should configure the module with a name of restGenerator as shown below:

'modules' => [
	...
	 'restGenerator' => [
                'class' => 'restGenerator\Module',
                'params' => [
                    'modelsPath' => Yii::getAlias("@common") , //path for models scaning
                    'controllersPath' => Yii::getAlias("@backend") . "/modules/v1/controllers", //path where to save controllers
                    'controllersNS' => 'backend\modules\v1\controllers', //namespace for the new controllers
                    'auth_method'=>'Basic Auth'// Can be : Bearer Auth, Basic Auth
                ]
            ],
	...
],

`v1` ! Must be module, you can set other name, but this must be module.

Set aliases for src path(/common/main.php recommended)

'aliases' => [  
    ...  
    '@restGenerator' => '@vendor/esempla/yii2-rest-generator/src',  
],

Add in bootstrap.php in common or backend

Yii::setAlias('@restGenerator', dirname(dirname(__DIR__)) . '/vendor/esempla/rest-generator/src');  

Add RestGeneratorRoute for dynamic API routing(/backend/main.php recommended)

If adding new controllers to a module, this will set default REST rules for it.

'bootstrap' => [
    ...
    'restGenerator\components\RestGeneratorRoute'
],

Recommendations for settings:

'components' => [
    ...
    'urlManager' => [
          'class' => 'yii\web\UrlManager',
          'showScriptName' => false,   // Disable index.php
          'enablePrettyUrl' => true,  
        'rules' => [
            ...

    ],
],
'user' => [
            'class' => 'common\components\UserIdentity',
            'identityClass' => 'common\modules\User\models\User',
            'enableAutoLogin' => false,
            'enableSession' =>false
        ],

],

### Important ! set file access by example
 

sudo chown -R root:www-data backend/modules/v1/controllers

### Also remove RBAC for new controllers

'as access' => [

    'class' => AccessControl::className(),
    'allowActions' => [
        'site/*',
        'test/*',
        'v1/*',//for example
        'restGenerator/login/*'
    ]
],
