Wordpress for LaravelPHP

This package allows you to fetch data from any Wordpress installation via a RESTful API. It requires that the Wordpress installation include the JSON API plugin.

Install

In application/bundles.php add:

'wordpress' => array('auto' => true),

Configuration

Copy the sample config file to application/config/wordpress.php and input the proper information.

Usage

Use any API method and pass params as a single array. Here are some common API requests you might make:

// get a page
$page = Wordpress::get_page(array(
	'post_type' => 'page',
	'slug' => 'about',
));

// get a post
$post = Wordpress::get_post(array(
	'post_type' => 'post',
	'id' => 100,
));

// get recent posts
$posts = Wordpress::get_recent_posts(array(
	'post_type' => 'post',
	'count' => 10,
	'page' => 1,
));

See the API docs for a full list of available methods.

Notes

The Wordpress class is built on top of the Wordpress\API class, and simply adds some caching and filtering features (as specified in your config file). For straightup API calls and nothing else, use Wordpress\API. Methods and paramaters are the same.

Edit Mode

Caching results can cause frustration for users trying to see the immedate effect of their content changes. To help with this issue, a user can enter and exit "edit mode" by pointing their browser to http://<DOMAIN>/wordpress and clicking the appropriate option. Edit mode is governed by a simple Session::put('wordpress_edit_mode', true); variable, and thus is user specific.
