FAQ

After the download, you have to make one include require_once('vendor/autoload.php');. After that you have to import the classes with use statements.

Example:

If you use only one package a project is not needed. But if you use more then one package, without a project it is not possible to import the classes with use statements.

In general, it is recommended to use always a project to download your libraries. In an application normally there is more than one library needed.

Some PHP packages are not free to download and because of that hosted in private repositories. In this case some credentials are needed to access such packages. Please use the auth.json textarea to insert credentials, if a package is coming from a private repository. You can look here for more information.

Some hosting areas are not accessible by a terminal or SSH. Then it is not possible to use Composer.
To use Composer is sometimes complicated. Especially for beginners.
Composer needs much resources. Sometimes they are not available on a simple webspace.
If you are using private repositories you don't need to share your credentials. You can set up everything on our site and then you provide a simple download link to your team member.
Simplify your Composer build process. Use our own command line tool to download the vendor folder as binary. This makes your build process faster and you don't need to expose your credentials for private repositories.

Please rate this library. Is it a good library?

Informations about the package content-accord

Content Accord

Content Accord is a Laravel package for API versioning with composable strategies and a generic negotiation layer. It supports URI, header, and Accept header versioning behind a single fluent API and prepares your application for future negotiation dimensions (locale, format, tenant).

Features

URI, custom header, or Accept header versioning
Optional resolver chaining (try multiple strategies in order)
Configurable missing-version behavior
Per-route-group fallback when the requested version is missing
Deprecation headers with sunset and documentation links
Attribute-driven version metadata on controllers and methods
Generic negotiation foundation for future dimensions

Requirements

PHP 8.3+
Laravel 12+ (Laravel 11 and 13 are supported via constraints)

Installation

Publish the configuration file:

Configuration

The main configuration lives in config/content-accord.php under the versioning key.

Key settings:

dimensions: array of dimension services to negotiate
strategy: uri, header, or accept
resolver: custom resolver class/binding for versioning
chain: array of strategies to try in order
missing_strategy: reject, default, latest, or require
default_version: used when missing strategy is default
fallback: global default for version fallback
versions: registered versions and deprecation metadata

Usage

Fluent Route Groups (Recommended)

Use Route::apiVersion() to declare versioned route groups. The URI prefix is managed automatically based on your configured resolver strategy.

With the URI strategy (default), the above registers at /api/v1/users and /api/v2/users. With header or Accept strategies, both register at /api/users and Content Accord selects the right route at dispatch time.

Deprecation metadata is a fluent chain:

Header Strategy

Requests:

Accept Header Strategy

Custom Dimensions and Resolvers

Override the negotiated dimensions or the resolver implementation:

Missing Version Behavior

Configure what happens when a request has no version:

Fallback Behavior

Enable fallback globally or per group:

If a request targets v3 but only v2 exists for that endpoint, the v2 route will be selected when fallback is enabled.

Attributes

Add version metadata on controllers or methods:

Method-level attributes take precedence over class-level attributes. Attribute versions override the group version in route metadata. Mismatches are logged in local/testing environments.

Deprecation Headers

Mark version groups as deprecated and optionally add sunset dates and docs links:

The Deprecation, Sunset, and Link headers are added automatically when deprecation metadata is present.

Accessing the Negotiated Version

Use the apiVersion() helper in controllers or anywhere after the negotiate middleware has run:

Or inject NegotiatedContext directly:

Testing Utilities

Use the testing helper to attach API versions to test requests:

The helper respects the configured strategy (URI, header, or Accept).
