A barebones PHP microservice that makes use of the Silex web framework, which can easily be deployed to Heroku.

Uses Doctrine ORM and symfony style console for database management.

This is really just a learning tool for me (and others), and intended to be used with forthcoming Chop-Shopper front end.

Currently running on PHP version 5.6 or greater. Should be able to get it running on earlier versions of PHP with some modifications to dependencies.

Set database environment variable DATABASE_URL for db connection string to parse:

$ export DATABASE_URL=postgres://chop_shop:chopping@localhost:<port>

Let composer manage dependencies

$ git clone git@github.com:rbtitotito/chop-recipes.git # or clone your own fork
$ # create a postgres database with credentials matching environment variable
$ # DATABASE_URL.  
$ # Example:  export DATABASE_URL=postgres://chop_shop:chopping@localhost:<port>
$
$ cd chop-recipes
$ composer install
$
$ # first time only - load database
$ console doctrine:database:create
$ console doctrine:schema:load
$ phpunit

Todo - add prepopulated database

$ heroku create
$ git push heroku master
$ heroku open

Example Recipe:

{
    "name": "Call my Doctor",
    "steps":
    [   
        {
            "directions": "Mix the eggs and the bacon",
            "step_ingredients":
            [
                {
                    "ingredient": {"name": "egg"},
                    "qty": 2
                },
                {
                    "ingredient": {"name": "bacon"},
                    "qty": 4
                }
            ]
        },
        {
            "directions": "Butter your biscuit",
            "step_ingredients":
            [
                {
                    "ingredient": {"name": "biscuit"},
                    "qty": 1
                },
                {
                    "ingredient": {"name": "butter"},
                    "qty": 1
                }
            ]
        }
    ]
}
