api with laravel code example

Example 1: laravel 7 user registration using api post endpoint

<?php

namespace App\Http\Controllers;


use Illuminate\Http\Request;
use App\User;

class AuthController extends Controller
{
    public $loginAfterSignUp = true;

    public function register(Request $request)
    {
      $user = User::create([
        'name' => $request->name,
        'email' => $request->email,
        'password' => bcrypt($request->password),
      ]);

      $token = auth()->login($user);

      return $this->respondWithToken($token);
    }

    public function login(Request $request)
    {
      $credentials = $request->only(['email', 'password']);

      if (!$token = auth()->attempt($credentials)) {
        return response()->json(['error' => 'Unauthorized'], 401);
      }

      return $this->respondWithToken($token);
    }
    public function getAuthUser(Request $request)
    {
        return response()->json(auth()->user());
    }
    public function logout()
    {
        auth()->logout();
        return response()->json(['message'=>'Successfully logged out']);
    }
    protected function respondWithToken($token)
    {
      return response()->json([
        'access_token' => $token,
        'token_type' => 'bearer',
        'expires_in' => auth()->factory()->getTTL() * 60
      ]);
    }

}

Example 2: laravel rest api

class RegisterTest extends TestCase
{
    public function testsRegistersSuccessfully()
    {
        $payload = [
            'name' => 'John',
            'email' => '[email protected]',
            'password' => 'toptal123',
            'password_confirmation' => 'toptal123',
        ];

        $this->json('post', '/api/register', $payload)
            ->assertStatus(201)
            ->assertJsonStructure([
                'data' => [
                    'id',
                    'name',
                    'email',
                    'created_at',
                    'updated_at',
                    'api_token',
                ],
            ]);;
    }

    public function testsRequiresPasswordEmailAndName()
    {
        $this->json('post', '/api/register')
            ->assertStatus(422)
            ->assertJson([
                'name' => ['The name field is required.'],
                'email' => ['The email field is required.'],
                'password' => ['The password field is required.'],
            ]);
    }

    public function testsRequirePasswordConfirmation()
    {
        $payload = [
            'name' => 'John',
            'email' => '[email protected]',
            'password' => 'toptal123',
        ];

        $this->json('post', '/api/register', $payload)
            ->assertStatus(422)
            ->assertJson([
                'password' => ['The password confirmation does not match.'],
            ]);
    }
}

Example 3: laravel api routes

Route::get($uri, $callback);
Route::post($uri, $callback);
Route::put($uri, $callback);
Route::patch($uri, $callback);
Route::delete($uri, $callback);
Route::options($uri, $callback);
