REST API

API is an indispensable tool for any project when access to its resources from outside is required. REST API allows you to receive various data from the project server on request, and upload various data to the server, for example, register new users, and listings, add comments, delete data, and do many other operations.

How it works

The plugin is an intermediate link between the developer and the Flynex-based website. Requests to the plugin's receiving controller are made via the HTTP protocol using the GET, POST, and DELETE methods. The request initializes certain actions on the server side with saving or retrieving data from the database, after which the data is formed into an array and sent to the developer in JSON format as a response. In this way, the developer interacts with the project, receiving and adding the necessary information to it.

Back end

The plugin does not have a manager in the admin panel, but it creates a configuration section in which the admin can specify the necessary keys for the operation of certain API methods, for example, to work with PUSH notifications, you must specify the account data in FireBase. The REST API configuration section of the plugin will be expanded over time.

Documentation

We are currently working on the documentation, a link to it will be published as soon as it is ready.
