#### (1) Introduction & features
The `api` package (v2.2) allows you to easily create and manage an API. It could be an HTTP API (REST, or other), or you can use it as an internal core for your system.

#### (2) Basic knowledge
## (2) Basic knowledge
The API is based over a 2-level delegation structure :
1. `module` which is a set of methods
2. `method` which have input, output, permissions, and is bound to a function
So each of your functionalities must have a `method` name and be inside a `module`.
<u>Example:</u>
* module `article` contains methods:
* `read` with argument `article_id`
* `write` with arguments `title` and `body`
* `edit` with arguments `article_id` and `body`
* `delete` with argument `article_id`
If you want to delete the article of id `52`, I must request `article/delete` passing `article_id`=`52`.

#### (1) Setup
## (1) Setup
In order to make the API work, you have to :
1. Edit the configuration file according to your needs (cf. [configuration](#3---configuration))
2. Implement the Authentication System to manage permissions (cf. [AuthSystem](#3-authsystem))
3. Implement the code of the methods according to the configuration

Then can handle various kinds of URL :
- request and parameters can be in URL (separated by `/`)
- request and parameters can be in `multipart/form-data` or `x-www-form-urlencoded`
- request and parameters of both URL, post data, and form-data are caught
### The following examples can work :
> 1. `http://www.host.com/{module}/{method}/`
- parameters can be in URL (separated by `/`)
- parameters can be in `multipart/form-data` or `x-www-form-urlencoded`
- parameters of both URL and content are caught
> 2. `http://www.host.com/api/{module}/{method}/`
- parameters can be in URL (separated by `/`)
- parameters can be in `multipart/form-data` or `x-www-form-urlencoded`
- parameters of both URL and content are caught
> 3. `http://www.host.com/`
> 4. `https://www.host.com/api/`
**Case 2**: You want an URL like `http://www.host.com/api/` and pass all data through POST or form-data.
```json
"post-data": {
"param1": "{value1}",
"param2": "{value2}"

4 - implementation
----
## (1) Permissions : AuthSystem
In order to implement your _Authentification System_ you have to implement the **interface** `AuthSystem` located in `/build/api/core/AuthSystem`.
You must register your custom authentification system before each api call with :
```php
// let's suppose your auth system class is "AuthSystemDefault"
\api\core\Request::setAuthSystem(new AuthSystemDefault);
```
## (2) Modules & methods
### Module implementation
Each module's implementation is represented as a **file** so as a **class** located in `/build/api/module/`. In order for the autoloader to work, you must name the **file** the same name as the **class**.
### Method implementation
Each method is represented as a method in its module's class.
### Input arguments
Arguments are passed to the method as a single argument which an associative array according to the documentation.
_Notes_:
* Optional parameters if not given are set to `null`
* parameters of type `FILE` are given by reference but the use is the same as normal parameters
### Ouput required
You must return an associative array containing at least the field `error` containing an instance of `/api/core/Error`, then you can add useful return.
If you don't return the 'error' field, by default it is set to `new Error(Err::Success)`.
