This is a quick and dirty Lumen base API for the ViMbAdmin database
ViMbAdminis a web based virtual mailbox administration system for dovecote and posftix
The down side of ViMdAdmin is that it has no APi front end and at Nottingham Hackspace we needed to change our mailbox aliase from the Hackspace Mangment System (HMS) as the systems run on two diffrent server this quick REST api was thrown together for comsumption by HMS 2.0.
Two database conections are used, first to the app's own DB (this looks after the API oauth stuff), second to the ViMbAdmin DB, details for both need to be defined in the .env file as below. Along with the location to the ViMbAdmin aplliction config file
DB_CONNECTION=mysql
DB_HOST=127.0.0.1
DB_PORT=3306
DB_DATABASE=vimbadmin-api
DB_USERNAME=homestead
DB_PASSWORD=secret
VBA_CONNECTION=mysql
VBA_HOST=127.0.0.1
VBA_PORT=3306
VBA_DATABASE=mailserver
VBA_USERNAME=homestead
VBA_PASSWORD=secret
VBA_CONFIG_FILE=../../vimbadmin/application/configs/application.ini
