php - Should an API contain front datas? -

-

our tech team works on 1 website main product of our company. have office website used work on product efficiently.

we'd make website better , create middle earth between office , front product since share same datas. want create mobile application that'll share (again) same datas.

we thought making api containing of business model.

now what's consistent , effective use ? should api contain crud models ? logic isn't shared across domains... should contain every end logic possible ? wouldn't dead code on 1 side or 1 ?

should contain front end code ? mean generated html templates it'll fill data ? problem got last question : page a. need model x display basic properties. api sends it. need use method 1 on x display data. can't because don't have access x methods now.

an api should deliver data need work with. also, should contain business logic, except things sorting or this.

so have webpage example, works data. complete layout, design whatsoever within webpages project. data need required through api though.

of course, if need same data quite often, may think caching such results. done provider-wise (api) or consumer-wise (example webpage).

the point of working data is, consumer gathers information needs send request provider (api) , gets information delivered, consumer needs show them or decide next.

all heavy work lays down on api site, else api wouldn't make sense, since goal provide 1 single point, contains logic. you shouldn't repeat yourself.

routes - Laravel 4 Wildcard Routing to Different Controllers -

-
realizing i'm going take beating this, have several questions "best practices" when constructing laravel route. do laravel routes run "first come first serve" top bottom? if route found, pass control controller (or perform action) , terminate? i have part of application acts url shortner. so, route looks this: route::get('/{id}', array('as' => 'home.text', 'uses' => 'homecontroller@text'), function($id){ //make sure id exists before pushing controller. if (storage::where('shortcode','=', $id)->count() > 0) { // route found } }); how can improved? one, i'm not sure how pass processing on controller conditionally.. sort of controller::make() ..? 3) there better way in laravel check if record exists versus doing mode::where('column','=','value')->count() 4) have legacy urls http://url.com/?...
