Usage

Basic Response

You can use the Responder facade to create standardized API responses.

Example:

use Responder;

return Responder::ok($response);
return Responder::setMessage('success')->ok($response);
return Responder::tooManyRequests();
return Responder::notFound();
return Responder::unAuthorized();

$data = $this->repository->paginate();
$links = [
    'next' => $data->nextPageUrl(),
    'prev' => $data->previousPageUrl(),
    'path' => $data->path(),
];
$meta = [
    'total'        => $data->total(),
    'current_page' => $data->currentPage(),
    'per_page'     => $data->perPage(),
];
return Responder::setMeta($meta)->setLinks($links)->ok($data->items());

return Responder::setStatusCode(500)->setMessage($e->getMessage())->respond();

{
  "message": "Operation successful!",
  "success": true,
  "data": {
    "accessToken": "28|PDVEA7z6mUPcbbIybkpiMPJMvy3TLtuWOguiGDGn13c67491",
