Symfony 7: API

Implementation

Simple: return JSON from controller

• Works out of the box;
• Improvement: add serializer (better work with objects, private properties);

composer require serializer

Complex: API Platform

composer require api

 api-platform/symfony  instructions:

  * Your API is almost ready:
    1. Create your first API resource in src/ApiResource;
    2. Go to /api to browse your API

  * Using MakerBundle? Try php bin/console make:entity --api-resource 

  * To enable the GraphQL support, run composer require api-platform/graphql,
    then browse /api/graphql.

  * Read the documentation at https://api-platform.com/docs/
