Hi, there numerous plugins for working with the wp api to get or put wp posts and such on wp itself or external apps, but none that work nicely with an external api to get that data and put that data.
As working with api is almost always a developer thing to do, it a bit limited while apis are everywhere now. Its 2014, everything is API enabled, but people dont know how! Yes one can have a developer arange this for you, but i think it should be taken out of the developers and into the consumer world. It should be easy to deal with an API and it should be affordable or free to do so. It would enable people to do great stuff and do it themselfs
There should be a plugin that deals with that
As it depends on the specific api used there should be some rules to create to be able to use that api. api profiles would be a nicename.
I figure that an api can use a list of protocols and has other atributes that are kind of normal or standard, so its posible to have a list of available methods and create a visual way of constructon api urls with vars in them.
One can read an api documentation, find the corresponding functions in the GUI and create an api profile for that which enables u to choose that api profile for your new connection.
per example i create a form on my site that collects username and password.
It should then be posible to go into the new module, choose or create the api profile
per xample read the api docs and find that it needs an: url, (username+password md5 hash) to get auth creds for further usage
So one would set the api profile to include the needed url, way of communication and available functions
The create a new connection based on that profile
url (http/[login to view URL])/function/authcreds/(var:md5 hash)
done via nice fields where the url is fixed because taken from profile, and the functions that are in the url as dropdown (taken from profile) as we specified the api options when creating the connection as item in the new module. The vars are taken from a form on the page
Forms: one could take an opensouce form plugin and alter it to use the api url for action
the result of the initial request would be an auth token (url (http/[login to view URL])/function/authcreds/(var:md5 hash)
that auth token can be used for the api from now on.
I want to create a new account via the api, so i have a form with accountname, usrname, password
So i create a new api call in the created connection
url (http/[login to view URL])/accounts/auth token/addsubaccount/ with a header containing the data needed, taken fromthe form vars
click the button and the plugin will receive the data, change the vars to their values and make the request.
I see that to create this would be some work, but it would enable people to implement api data and work with it easily,
and if they cant set the api settings themselfs as its too complex they can always ask someone, as finding those rules and putting them in a profile for a certain connection is not that hard. We would gather the profiles online on github so that they can be forked and altered, copied or added
What we have then? A very simple way to work with and manipulate api data, not seen elswhere.
Im no developer, i need a developer with a team that understands and fills the gaps that i have left out. Per example the md5 hash option, but also other common used extra thing that just need to be there. Do not take the above rules and base the price on that, think about it first
