# Laravel API explorer

[![Latest Version on Packagist][ico-version]][link-packagist]
[![Total Downloads][ico-downloads]][link-downloads]

Interactive Laravel API explorer. You don't need to write/update documentation for your API. On the fly, Your API documentation will always be available in an interactive way.

## Features

- Quick install (one-step install, no code change needed);
- Zero config needed;
- Store config/parameters to be used anytime;
- Variables: you can set variables (like id's, tokens, etc. to be used in any place like querystring, header, body, etc.);
- Global headers: You can set global headers (like tokens, content-type, etc.) to be used in all requests.

## Live Demo

https://laravel-api-explorer-demo.herokuapp.com/api-explorer

## Using variables

You can click on top right icon (wrench) and add your variables. When you will need to set some querystring parameter, header value, body content, etc., you can use `${VARIABLE_NAME}`, and this placeholder will be replaced by your variable.

## Using global headers

If you API needs some header in all request (or almost), you can set global headers instead of create these headers for every request. You can click on top right icon (wrench) and add your global headers.
