In the app directory, generate the files for the resource you want:

$ generate-api-platform-client https://demo.api-platform.com src/ --resource foo
# Replace the URL by the entrypoint of your Hydra-enabled API
# Omit the resource flag to generate files for all resource types exposed by the API

The code is ready to be executed! Register the generated reducers and components in the index.js file, here is an example:

import React from 'react';
import ReactDom from 'react-dom';
import registerServiceWorker from './registerServiceWorker';
import { createStore, combineReducers, applyMiddleware } from 'redux';
import { Provider } from 'react-redux';
import thunk from 'redux-thunk';
import { reducer as form } from 'redux-form';
import { BrowserRouter as Router, Route, Switch } from 'react-router-dom';
import createBrowserHistory from 'history/createBrowserHistory';
import { syncHistoryWithStore, routerReducer as routing } from 'react-router-redux'

// Replace "foo" with the name of the resource type
import foo from './reducers/foo/';
import fooRoutes from './routes/foo';

const store = createStore(
  combineReducers({routing, form, foo}), // Don't forget to register the reducers here
  applyMiddleware(thunk),
);

const history = syncHistoryWithStore(createBrowserHistory(), store);

ReactDom.render(
  <Provider store={store}>
    <Router history={history}>
      <Switch>
        {fooRoutes}
        <Route render={() => <h1>Not Found</h1>}/>
      </Switch>
    </Router>
  </Provider>,
  document.getElementById('root')
);

registerServiceWorker();
