this is the code in ionic to link to my slim api:

 postData(credentials, type)

 return new Promise((resolve, reject) =>
 let headers = new Headers();
 this.http.post("http://slimapp:8080/api/signup", JSON.stringify(credentials), headers: headers).
 subscribe(res =>
 resolve(res.json());
 , (err) =>
 reject(err);
 );
 );
 

credentials is my data and type is"signup"

and this is the slim php code tp match the route

$app->post('/api/signup', function(Request $request, Response $response)
// my function is here
);

when i connect postman with php slim, everything works well, but when i connect it with ionic, this error comes up:
[404]: /api/signup - No such file or directory

This is the error showing on the command prompt where i started the the php server

how to fix this?

After looking at your error log (usually better to include formatted error messages in your question rather than linking an image) I noticed you're creating the PHP server in the root of the slim framework, but you're not declaring the document root to the public directory like in the documentation.

You should be able to do one of two things:

You can navigate to the public directory - .../htdocs/slimapp/public - and start the PHP server there - php -S 127.0.0.1:8080

Or you can specify the document root of the server (just like in the docs posted) with the -t flag.

php -S localhost:8080 -t public public/index.php

If you run php --help you can see all of the flags available with the php binary.

php --help
...
-S <addr>:<port> Run with built-in web server.
-t <docroot> Specify document root <docroot> for built-in web server.
