Key Features

  • Leverage the Lumen framework to build RESTful API endpoints for your applications
  • Understand how to increase efficiency and security of your web service.
  • Learn to apply the concepts by implementing the examples covered in the book

Book Description

REST is the most wide spread and effective standard to develop APIs for internet services. With the way PHP and its eco-system has modernized the way code is written by simplifying various operations, it is useful to develop RESTful APIs with PHP 7 and modern tools.

This book explains in detail how to create your own RESTful API in PHP 7 that can be consumed by other users in your organization.

Starting with a brief introduction to the fundamentals of REST architecture and the new features in PHP 7, you will learn to implement basic RESTful API endpoints using vanilla PHP. The book explains how to identify flaws in security and design and teach you how to tackle them. You will learn about composer, Lumen framework and how to make your RESTful API cleaner, secure and efficient. The book emphasizes on automated tests, teaches about different testing types and give a brief introduction to microservices which is the natural way forward.

After reading this book, you will have a clear understanding of the REST architecture and you can build a web service from scratch.

What you will learn

  • REST API architecture and its benefits
  • How to write RESTful API web services in PHP7
  • To address security related issues in a REST API
  • Importance of automated testing and to write tests for API endpoints
  • Implement SOLID principles in your code and the purpose of Micro-services
  • How to identify security flaws in our current API endpoints and tackle them effectively
  • The working of Lumen microframework and writing RESTful web services in it

主要特點



  • 利用 Lumen 框架為應用程式建立 RESTful API 端點

  • 了解如何提高網路服務的效能和安全性

  • 透過實作書中的範例來應用這些概念


書籍描述


REST 是開發網路服務 API 最廣泛且有效的標準。隨著 PHP 及其生態系統簡化各種操作的現代化,使用 PHP 7 和現代工具開發 RESTful API 是非常有用的。


本書詳細解釋如何在 PHP 7 中創建自己的 RESTful API,供組織中的其他使用者使用。


從簡要介紹 REST 架構和 PHP 7 的新功能開始,您將學習使用原生 PHP 實現基本的 RESTful API 端點。本書解釋了如何識別安全和設計上的缺陷,並教您如何解決這些問題。您將學習有關 composer、Lumen 框架以及如何使您的 RESTful API 更加乾淨、安全和高效的知識。本書強調自動化測試,教授不同類型的測試,並簡要介紹了微服務的概念,這是未來的發展方向。


閱讀本書後,您將對 REST 架構有清晰的理解,並能夠從頭開始建立網路服務。
