Yii 2 Basic Firestarter

This project is discontinued

Please follow this link if you want something similar to this project: https://github.com/hunwalk/yii2-app-forge

This is a somewhat modified version of the basic template with some pregonfigured features. I've created this to save time upon creating a new project.

Please leave a star if you're considering to use this template in production.

Contains:

that overly useful symfony VarDumper. Use the dump() method
dotenv configuration ( idea by @lostika86 )
The dektrium/yii2-user and dektrium/yii2-rbac packages with basic config
An api identifier solution (Authorization header => Bearer token) / code by bizley
An api module
Predefined controllerMap to the console config (added migration commands)
A conventional commits helper

Get started

Use the latest release

$ composer create-project hunwalk/yii2-basic-firestarter <projectName> --prefer-dist

Or use the current master branch, if you're in a hurry for features if there is any

$ git clone https://github.com/HunWalk/yii2-basic-firestarter <projectName>
$ cd <projectName>
$ composer install
$ composer run-script post-create-project-cmd

post-create-project-cmd script sets up the permissions for some folders and generates the cookieValidationKey for you

Instructions

1st step

Create a .env file from the .env.example

OSX / LINUX

$ cp .env.example .env

Windows

$ copy .env.example .env

2nd step

Fill in the .env file. Add or remove things, it's your choice entirely

Run the following commands

$ php yii migrate-user
$ php yii migrate-rbac
$ php yii migrate

3rd step

Run the server and be happy :)
```
$ php yii serve
```

About the API

You can reach the api at api/v1 There is an example controller you can test. That is purely for demonstration, and can be better.

Update user profile using the api (This is purely for testing purposes)

Read this carefully, if you've never done something like this.

Start the server
Pop up your favourite api client
Set the url to api/v1/user/settings/profile
Set up a header with the key Authorization
The Authorization header value should be your token.
Keep in mind, that the token will expire within 60 seconds
Do a get request with these settings.
You should get back the users profile
Now do a post request. The body should be x-www-form-urlencoded
The key value pairs should be Profile[name] = {yourname}
Send. 😄

If you did everything right, you should get back the updated profile.

Some additional information

The token looks like this:

1:1574952622:d1da75dd83fc643384c728ed7ecfb266574d6533

It has 3 parts. The user_id, the current timestamp, and the users api_key sha1 hashed together with the current timestamp.

You can find more information about generating that token inside the v1 modules DefaultController Also, you should delete that before going to production.

You can obtain the users api_key from the user table in the api_key column.

Use Conventional Commits

Thanks to the conventional commits project and this guy: https://github.com/damianopetrungaro/

It seems like, something broke after i released this update, and the fire/commit command does not really work. Requires some tweaking, but definitely going to fix this sometime. However feel free to use the idea of the conventional commits. It's really great 😄

Todo

Correct testing
Mention every 3rd party package here (i hope i did, open an issue if something is missing)
Test the API key functionality (tested, now it should work)
Make a v1 api module with contentNegotiation HttpBearerAuth and verbFilter by default
