Yii2 and Angular JS

I want to develop an application that has admin, web and mobile section. How do I integrate AngularJS and REST API into Yii2 to achieve this.

I have 3 interfaces:

Backend (admin - setup) => http://localhost/lms/admin/index.php

Frontend (Teacher - module) => http://localhost/lms/index.php

7608

Student module => This is the student interface. I want it to be for mobile app using yii2 and angularJS.

Since I’ve used backend for admin, and frontend for teacher, How do I go about the student interface.

Or is there a better way to do it.

Thanks

Example how to set up an api in app-advanced: http://budiirawan.com/setup-restful-api-yii2/

Hey,

Let me put my 2c. I would really avoid the way to integrate views, js and the API in one place. I would do that like this:

establish an API which the frontend will connect to (eg. api.yourdomain.com)
put the html & js files out of the API, even an another domain (eg. mobile.yourservice.com, admin.yourservice.com, yourservice.com)

It will give you the freedom at the point where you want to replace the frontend or backend (api).

I’ve been using the approach in my projects like http://mikrokiosk.pl (only in polish but take a look at the widget presenting products - it is done exactly that way).

Cheers!

I suggest you make student a nested module to allow versioning

app/modules/students/v1
