RESTful services with CI |
[eluser]stevefink[/eluser]
Hi all, I'm looking to leverage REST with an application which is using a Code Igniter foundation. I noticed CI does indeed have an XML-RPC class, but I was curious if anyone have ever worked with REST? It seems a bit less bloated and easier to implement than XML-RPC and SOAP. One key feature I'm certainly in need of is authentication as I'm going to be supporting write requests over my Web Service. Thanks all, /sf

I'm very interested in this idea. I'm currently playing around with the files provided here: http://blog.medryx.org/2008/10/03/codeigniter-rest/ and things look pretty interesting. I'm wondering, if anyone as implemented successfully a response type recognition, so that also type like JSON and XML could be requested. —I'm pretty sure I could provide a base model that could generate a the responses. Another question that came to my mind was how to send additional parameters like paging and filters using "pretty urls" in such a service. The router extension at http://blog.medryx.org/ doesn't allow me to do this. Has anyone had any experience or advice in this case? Every hint towards a RESTful CI would be highly appreciated. I've found a couple things here on the forum, but nothing is really flexible or "matured" enough to be used. I can try to write my own, but I guess it doesn't hurt to ask, if anyone could provide some guidance. Cheers, —trice |
