Step 1. Add the JitPack repository to your build file

Add it in your root settings.gradle at the end of repositories:

	dependencyResolutionManagement {
		repositoriesMode.set(RepositoriesMode.FAIL_ON_PROJECT_REPOS)
		repositories {
			mavenCentral()
			maven { url 'https://jitpack.io' }
		}
	}

Add it in your settings.gradle.kts at the end of repositories:

	dependencyResolutionManagement {
		repositoriesMode.set(RepositoriesMode.FAIL_ON_PROJECT_REPOS)
		repositories {
			mavenCentral()
			maven { url = uri("https://jitpack.io") }
		}
	}

Add to pom.xml

	<repositories>
		<repository>
		    <id>jitpack.io</id>
		    <url>https://jitpack.io</url>
		</repository>
	</repositories>

Add it in your build.sbt at the end of resolvers:

 
    resolvers += "jitpack" at "https://jitpack.io"
        
    

Add it in your project.clj at the end of repositories:

 
    :repositories [["jitpack" "https://jitpack.io"]]
        
    

Step 2. Add the dependency

	dependencies {
		implementation 'com.github.MarcinOrlowski:laravel-api-response-builder:'
	}
	dependencies {
		implementation("com.github.MarcinOrlowski:laravel-api-response-builder:")
	}
	<dependency>
	    <groupId>com.github.MarcinOrlowski</groupId>
	    <artifactId>laravel-api-response-builder</artifactId>
	    <version></version>
	</dependency>

                            
    libraryDependencies += "com.github.MarcinOrlowski" % "laravel-api-response-builder" % ""
        
        

                            
    :dependencies [[com.github.MarcinOrlowski/laravel-api-response-builder ""]]

Introduction

ResponseBuilder is a Laravel package, designed to help you build nice, normalized, and easy-to-consume REST API JSON responses.

Benefits

ResponseBuilder is written for REST API developers by REST API developers, drawing from extensive experience on both sides of API development. It's lightweight, has no dependencies, is thoroughly tested, and is simple to use while remaining flexible and powerful. It offers support for on-the-fly data conversion, localization, automatic message building, chained APIs, and comprehensive documentation.

Moreover, the JSON structure produced by ResponseBuilder is designed with your API users in mind. Its well-defined and predictable structure makes interacting with your API using ResponseBuilder effortless. The simple, consistent JSON responses are easy to consume. Your clients will appreciate it!

You're also covered in case of emergencies. The provided ExceptionHandlerHelper ensures your API continues to communicate in JSON (not HTML) with its clients, even in unexpected situations.

Additionally, it includes testing traits that help you add PHPUnit-based tests for your ResponseBuilder integration with just a few lines of code.
