2008-11-20* Added HTTP status constants and helper functions to REST helper.Jozef Selesi
* HTTP header setting in comment module now going through REST helper API. * Fixed items controller test. * Fixed user installer test. * Fixed _create() handling in the REST controller. * Fixed routing for edit and add forms. * Added some tests for the REST controller. * Set svn:eol-style to LF on a bunch of files. * Added preamble to MY_Forge.php.
2008-11-19Change the way that we do RESTful routing.Bharat Mediratta
1) We now use __call() in REST_Controller to handle any requests to a controller that were not already handled. In the case of RESTful controllers, this should be the only entry point (although they're free to break the model and add other ones.. nothing stops them). This means that we can remove all the catch-all routes in routes.php which greatly simplifies it. 2) Move request_method() and output_format() out of REST_Controller and into the REST helper in core/helpers/rest.php 3) Experiment with letting the various subclasses check the output_format and deal with it themselves. This simplifies the API, but it might be a bad idea in that it might push too much work to the individual controllers. It's a balancing act, time will tell, I'm willing to change it back later.
2008-11-18* Changed REST API. Now there are two separate methods for forms:Jozef Selesi
GET /form/edit/{controller}/{resource_id} -> controller::_form_edit($resource) GET /form/add/{controller}/{parameters} -> controller::_form_add($parameters) * Updated comment, user and core modules to reflect the API changes * Cleaned up routing and handling of requests to /{controller}
2008-11-18- All comments of an item can now be seen /comments?item_id=Jozef Selesi
- Return proper Content-Type header for GET /comments requests - Got rid of the query processing for index() in REST_Controller() - Small misc fixes
2008-11-18First iteration of REST controller refactoring. RESTful controllers that ↵Jozef Selesi
refer to collections should now have plural names and there should be only one controller per resource. Updated existing classes that implement REST_Controller. The routing now works like this: GET /controller -> controller::_index() POST /controller -> controller::_create() GET /controller/id -> controller::_show() PUT /controller/id -> controller::_update() DELETE /controller/id -> controller::_delete() GET /form/edit/controller/resource_id -> controller::_form() GET /form/add/controller/data -> controller::_form()
2008-11-17Add output formats to our REST controllers. Add support for JSON andBharat Mediratta
XML to the comment controllers as a proof of concept. It's not fully baked; we should examine ways to create helpers to make this process easier.
2008-11-16Drop the call to render() and just use the View's __toString method toBharat Mediratta
print it out.
2008-11-16Several large changes:Bharat Mediratta
1) Changed the way that we get forms. Now, if you want to get a form for a REST resource you prefix /form to the resource id. So: /form/photo/1 : returns a form for editing photo id 1 /form/comments/1 : returns a form for adding a comment to photo id 1 /form/comment/1 : returns a form for editing comment id 1 2) Changed the comment module to have two controllers: comment: deals with a single comment resource comments: deal with collections of comments attached to an item Related stuff: - Moved the comments js into the theme - Reworked Comment_Helper for clarity - Moved form generation code down into Comment_Helper - Cleaned up routes (eliminating new comment ones added in recent rev) - Added form() function to all REST controllers - Changed comment module to use a block instead of an arbitrary helper call from the theme - Comment controller only returns HTML currently, but returns a 201 Created status code when a new comment is added, which the Ajax code can catch and act upon. - Got rid of a lot of extra views in comment module
