List available endpoints in DotKernel API using dot-cli

Displaying DotKernel API endpoints using dot-cli

Starting from version 3, DotKernel API uses dot-cli to display a list of available endpoints.

Usage

Run the following command in your application’s root directory:

php ./bin/cli.php route:list

The command runs through all routes and extracts endpoint information in realtime. The output should be similar to the following:

+--------+---------------------------------+--------------------------------+

Filtering results

The following filters can be applied when displaying the routes list:

  • Filter routes by name, using: -i|--name
  • Filter routes by path, using: -p|--path
  • Filter routes by method, using: -m|--method

The filters are case-insensitive and can be combined.

Example

Let's find which path should one call to register their user account. For this we will list routes where method is POST and name contains the string register:

php ./bin/cli.php route:list --method=post --name=register

The output is the following:

+--------+------------------+-------------------+
| Method | Name             | Path              |
+--------+------------------+-------------------+
| POST   | account.register | /account/register |
+--------+------------------+-------------------+

You can get more help with this command by running:

php ./bin/cli.php route:list --help
