1. Define appropriate route.

   demo_photos-show:
      path:         api/demo/photos/{uid}
      controller:   Vendor\Demo\Controller\PhotoApiController::show
      methods:      GET
      format:       json
      defaults:
         plugin:    PhotoApi
      requirements:
         uid:       \d+
      options:
         middleware:
            - auth
   

   Warning

   If you extend LMSFacadeControllerAbstractApiController,

   uid must be present and it’s name should not be changed.

   Tip

   show action has been already implemented in our predefined controller.

   GET is not required, but as we follow the concept, we should always use it.

   json is not required, but it gives a little bit of clarity.

   requirements has uid argument and tells us it must be of type integer.

   auth FE user session is required as well as proper csrf token.

2. Use defined above endpoint in JavaScript scope.

   readResource('/api/demo/photos/1').then(function (photo) {
      console.log(photo);
   });
   

   Tip

   readResource function has been already implemented in our predefined Routes.js.
