CakePHP is a modern PHP framework that aims to reduce development time and promote rapid application development. It takes a convention over configuration approach and encourages best practices like DRY coding. CakePHP has an active community that provides support through forums, Slack, IRC and meetups. The framework continues to evolve through new releases that bring additional features while maintaining backwards compatibility.

- 33. Putting the rapid into RAD •How do we prevent repetitive controller code? •How do we have both a web and REST interface? •How about a JSON API spec compatible interface? •How do we do this without creating messy spaghetti code? The CRUD plugin •Dynamic, event-driven and production ready scaffolding •Automatic REST API generation •Single responsibility action classes
- 34. Installing CRUD •Remove all code from your controllers •Go on holiday, your work is done class AppController extends Controller { use CrudControllerControllerTrait; public function initialize() { $this->loadComponent('Crud.Crud', [ 'actions' => [ 'Crud.Index', 'Crud.Add', 'Crud.Edit', 'Crud.View', 'Crud.Delete' ] ]); } } $ composer require friendsofcake/crud OR use Mixer
- 35. Creating a REST API •Converts all actions into a web service capable of responding in JSON or XML •Takes care of all error handling and validation errors •Automatically adds a “layout” to your responses // config/routes.php $routes->extensions(['json', 'xml']); public function initialize() { ... $this->loadComponent('RequestHandler'); $this->Crud->addListener('Crud.Api'); $this->Crud->addListener('Crud.ApiPagination'); $this->Crud->addListener('Crud.ApiQueryLog'); }
- 36. Creating a REST API $ curl –X GET localhost:8765/articles -H ‘Accept: application/json’ { "success": true, "data": [ { "id": 1, "user_id": 1, "title": "First Post", "slug": "first-post", "body": "This is the first post.", "published": true, "created": "2017-07-03T17:23:06+00:00", "modified": "2017-07-03T17:23:06+00:00" } ], "pagination": { "page_count": 1, "current_page": 1, "has_next_page": false, "has_prev_page": false, "count": 1, "limit": null } }

- 38. JSON API $ curl –X GET ‘localhost:8765/articles?include=users’ -H ‘Accept: application/vnd.api+json’ { "data": [ { "type": "articles", "id": "1", "attributes": { "title": "First Post", "slug": "first-post", "body": "This is the first post.", "published": true, "created": "2017-07-03T17:25:23+00:00", "modified": "2017-07-03T17:25:23+00:00" }, "relationships": { "user": { "data": { "type": "users", "id": "1" }, "links": { "self": "/users/view/1" } } }, "links": { "self": "/articles/view/1" }

- 40. Why write HTML? •Generate always-up-to-date admin interfaces •Delete all your template files public function initialize() { ... $this->loadComponent('RequestHandler'); $this->Crud->addListener(‘CrudView.View’); } public function beforeRender() { $this->viewBuilder()->className(‘CrudViewViewCrudView’); } $ composer require friendsofcake/crud-view OR use Mixer (Also install friendsofcake/bootstrap-ui)
