Fusio is an open source API management platform which helps to build and manage RESTful APIs. It provides endpoint versioning, handling data from different data sources, schema definition (JsonSchema), automatic documentation generation and secure authorization (OAuth2). More informations on http://www.fusio-project.org/

We think that there is a huge potential in the API economy. Whether you need an API to expose your business functionality or to develop One-Page web applications or Mobile-Apps. Because of this we think that Fusio is a great tool to simplify building such APIs.

To install Fusio download the latest version and place the folder into the www directory of the webserver. After this Fusio can be installed in the following steps.

• Adjust the configuration file
  Open the file configuration.php in the Fusio directory and change the key psx_url to the domain pointing to the public folder. Also insert the database credentials to the psx_sql_* keys.
• Execute the installation command
  The installation script inserts the Fusio database schema into the provided database. It can be executed with the following command php bin/fusio install.
• Create administrator user
  After the installation is complete you have to create a new administrator account. Therefor you can use the following command php bin/fusio adduser. Choose as account type "Administrator" and save the generated password.
• Adjust url for the backend app
  The backend to control Fusio is based on AngularJS. The app needs to know the entry point of the API. Therefor you have to edit the file public/backend.htm and change the javascript variable fusio_url pointing to the API endpoint. After this it is possible to login to the backend at /backend.htm.

For PHP code please follow the PSR-2 coding-style and add a test case for the changes. If you want to develop a new complex feature please get in contact with us beforehand to discuss whether it is needed or someone is already working on such a topic. Then send a pull request through GitHub to the appropriated branch. There we can discuss all details of the changes.
