A well-designed API includes not just URLs and response codes but also
authentication, consistent structures, and useful JSON payloads. Luckily,
the Silex micro framework makes it easy to move an API from concept to
implementation to production. What used to take weeks or even months can
usually be done in hours or days with Silex.
This course begins with a simple application specification and builds it
one step at a time. Each chapter includes a key concept, with examples
from other public APIs, and then shows how to build it yourself with
Silex. Learn about URL routing, validating input, and generating response
codes and hypermedia payloads. Like any project, the first implementation
may be a little messy, but don't worry. The last chapter covers
refactoring and what it takes to scale and support the API going forward.
Topics include:
* Understanding the project goals
* Adding authentication with Silex
* Using cross-framework and authentication middleware
* Creating a read-write API in Silex
* Uploading files via an API
* Adding file security
* Creating payloads and response codes in Silex
* Scaling your API
