Adding Resources

Adding a new resource is done by submitting a payload with the POST HTTP method. The route will be defined as {your-bakery-slug}.{resource}.add

Within your resource you can define two classes which will work with your model. The first is a generator class, which will be responsible for the instantiation of your new model.

The second is a modifier which will make changes to your model immediately before save.

The fields configuration allows you to specify either which fields you want to populate, or which fields you do not want to populate from the request, using the populate or exclude keys as appropriate.

As always you can fire off your own events, which will stack on top of the globally specified events.

You may also specify a validator class, which implements the ProvidesBakeryValidationRules interface, to retrieve validation rules.

/* Create new model */
      'post' => [

        /* Security configurations */
        'security' => [
          'policy' => 'create',
          'gate' => 'admin'
        ]

        /* Generators are responsible for instantiation of a fresh model */
        'generator' => Generator::class,

        /* Modifier is used immediate before save */
        'modifier' => Modifier::class,

        /* Resource to return - if we want to return a resource/transformed instance of this model after creation */
        'resource' => Resource::class,

        /* What fields shall we either explicitly populate or explicitly exclude */
        'fields' => [
          'populate' => ['name', 'email'],
          'exclude' => ['password']
        ],

        /* Fire these events */
        'events' => [
          EventOne::class
        ],

        /* Validation */
        'validator' => ProvidesValidation::class,
        
      ],

Security can be defined as per the security specification.
