Use Phalcon and {JSON:API} to make your own server

This project demonstrates how to use the Phalcon + {JSON:API} project. It is a working example that pulls a the composer package into a Phalcon application. The demo app is backed by a sqlite database but any SQL RDBMS should do.

To see a more full featured application that runs on the Phalcon + {JSON:API} package, visit Smores.camp.

###Before you install, check this list:

1. Install Phalcon on your webserver. You installed a webserver with PHP right?

2. Make sure Composer is installed

3. This demo application user an sqlite database for persistant storage. Make sure that PDO support for sqlite is installed.

ie. on Ubuntu run this...

sudo apt-get install php5-sqlite;

###Steps to install this application: These instructions skip some server specific factors and assumes you are installing this application to the root directory of your webserver.

1. Download this project files to your local web server.

git clone https://github.com/gte451f/phalcon-json-api.git

2. Run the following from inside your newly installed application:

composer install; composer dumpautoload -o;

3. Setup your webserver for Phalcon usage. See here for Apache and here for Nginx

###To test:

Vist your application and you should see something like this:

{"GET":
    ["\/v1\/addresses",
    "\/v1\/addresses\/{id:[0-9]+}",
    "\/v1\/customers",
    "\/v1\/customers\/{id:[0-9]+}",
    "\/v1\/users",
    ...

Try out different end points like: /v1/addresses

{	"addresses": [
	{
    	"user_id": "15",
    	"id": "1",
    	"street": "123 Easy Street",
    	"state": "Oregon",
    	"zip": "24901",
    	"city": "Eugene"
	}....
