[SOLVED]Web and mobile via same backend |
EDIT: Solution found thanks to rtorralba and mwhitney. Going to make use of a REST api which I'm going to build in seperate controllers.
I'm not sure how to start with this, maybe one of you has a suggestion. Basically I'm going to create a website, and a mobile application (Android, iOS, doesn't matter), which both have to talk via the same PHP backend. This backend interacts with the database. So I want the frontend (so the website + mobile application) to send some sort of "command" to the backend. The backend then does something depending on the command it gets, and returns a value (I guess JSON would be the easiest here). Should I create a seperate project for the backend, and call it from the frontend via a CURL call, or something like that? Or should I create the backend in the same project as the frontend, but seperate the controllers in different folders, and call the backend directly? I would think the latter is better for performance and security, but I don't know how to call one controller from the other, if that is even possible. Not sure if I'm really clear so an image to describe what I mean: |
