CodeIgniter 4 RESTapi Server based on YouTube tutorial

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qPefoRbsfMc&list=PLYogo31AXFBN23O7wHgQv7eI7Qf84nj4W

1. Clone to you XAMPP/WAMP directory

navigate inside your project folder using command line/terminal and run:

composer install

2. Create a database in your phpMyAdmin

Once you create your db import restapi.sql

This mysql dump has some dummy data such as:

In oauth_clients table you already have

Client id: testclient

Client secret: testsecret

You should change this credentials to your own randomly generated keys

In users table you already have

User: Alex Lancer

Email: test@alexlancer.com

Password: password

oauth_users

not in use because in the tutorial we created custom Storage driver and used our own table for storing the users which is named 'users' instead of the default table 'oauth_users'

3. Time to setup your .env file

  1. Duplicate env file and uncomment all database.default lines and set you database connection details
  2. Add new line after database.default.DBDriver = MySQLi

    database.default.DSN = 'mysql:dbname=ADD_YOUR_DB_NAME;host=localhost'

  3. Uncomment and set app.baseURL

4. Setup your server to point into public folder of CodeIgniter
