Passport API Generator

[ibourgeois]

A Nova package that can use Resources to generate an API with Passport.

• Should include a Tool for global management
• Should include a Resource Tool to enable and configure API settings per Resource

@ibourgeois just a heads up, this was just released

thanks for the heads up! I will take a look and if it makes sense to do so create a PR on their repo to add this functionality. That being said, I am curious how/if they managed to solve the issues regarding passport authentication with both the users API as well as nova-api. I managed to get one or the other pretty easily but combining them required a ton of manual changes to install.

Oh wow. this is just a tool to manage Passport. Not at all what I am working on. I am working on direct API access from your application to Nova resources. What I have allows you to create your models, Nova resources and migrations... then develop your front end without the need for a controller unless you need the added complexity...

@ibourgeois oh ok! I saw passport and skimmed. I assumed api authentication management I see what you're saying, so its to build your app spa style? Not offer an external api? Sorry for the mix up haha

@ibourgeois I am curious about this idea. What's on my mind (and what I'm looking for) is 3rd party API can be consumed by resource (index, show, edit, delete). If the resource manages the database, this package manages the API.

By the way, thank you for mentioning my project @dillingham.
