Phil Sturgeon's REST Client: help posting to REST server

[eluser]cgeisel[/eluser]
Victory! It's what I suspect is a bug in the example_api.php REST_Controller. This method:

Code:

$this->post()

... doesn't seem to be an alias for $this->input->post() after all. When I changed my example_api.php code to:

Code:

function user_post()
{  
    //$this->some_model->updateUser( $this->get('id') );
    $message = array('id' => $this->get('id'), 'name' => $this->input->post('name'), 'email' => $this->input->post('email'), 'message' => 'ADDED!');
        
    $this->response($message, 200); // 200 being the HTTP response code    
}

It started receiving the POSTed parameters correctly. Whew! I post my solution here in case anyone else runs into a similar problem.

I've also opened an issue in the REST Client github site. I'll post back here if the author has any feedback.
