You can publish and run the migrations with:

php artisan vendor:publish --tag="contento-migrations"

You can publish the config file with:

This is the contents of the published config file:

    'prefix' => 'api/contento/v1',
    'middleware' => ['api'],

        'modals' => 'modals',
        'settings' => 'settings',
    ],
];

Usage

This package provides a headless CMS API. Once installed and migrated, you can access the following endpoints:

  • GET /api/contento/v1/pages - List all pages
  • GET /api/contento/v1/pages/{id_or_slug} - Get a single page
  • GET /api/contento/v1/faq-categories - List FAQ categories with questions
  • GET /api/contento/v1/settings - List all settings

All endpoints return JSON responses using Laravel API Resources.

Authorization

Policy authorization is optional and follows host app policy registration.

Register policies in your app and keep contento.authorize_using_policies enabled:

use App\Models\Page;
use App\Policies\PagePolicy;
use Illuminate\Support\Facades\Gate;

public function boot(): void
{
    Gate::policy(Page::class, PagePolicy::class);
}

Controllers check authorization only when:

  • contento.authorize_using_policies is true
  • there is an authenticated user
  • a matching gate/policy definition exists

Testing

The package uses Pest for testing. You can run the tests using:

composer test
