RESTful API for WordPress to Enable Public HTTP GET Request for Posts

RESTful API for WordPress Can Enable Many Features to a Website Like We Can Fetch Data for Facebook Page from Widget via HTTP GET Request. Previously, we explained Why Your Cloud Based App Needs API and if you are not sure what is REST API or Representational State Transfer API, you must read the linked article first. We have a nice tool named CocoaRestClient which can test your App™s response. As an example, the basics how a RESTful API for Self Hosted iOS App can be created was outlined.

 

RESTful API for WordPress to Enable Public HTTP GET Request for Posts : Importance

 

Importance of the whole descriptive phrase – RESTful API for WordPress to Enable Public HTTP GET Request for Posts is that; as a simple example; a subdomain of your website running WordPress optimized as iOS App, using the same database will act as an App itself. Secondly, next generation search engines (it is likely that Google will get replaced for enterprise grade search by a known Apache project, for example) can fetch the data in easy manner, social sharing no longer will require the old RSS Feed dependent system.

JSON is a data format based on Javascript™s representation of objects, but it™s widely used because it can be easily represented in almost every programming language. Current mobile apps use the XML-RPC API, and up to 40% of their code is just to understand the XML properly, whereas JSON
support is built-in to iOS and Android natively. This RESTful API must not be confused with WordPress internal API. That is for connecting the functions to fetch data from MySQL database. For example;

From our knowledge, Thermal was the first Plugin which allowed to add such function via a Plugin :

Vim

https://github.com/voceconnect/thermal-api

WordPress recently is thinking of implementing the Restful API in a kind of same way :

https://github.com/WP-API/WP-API

Probably this is another Plugin :

Dangers of Mass Implementation of RESTful API for WordPress to Enable Public HTTP GET Request

 

As far the things are clear “ Google Bot or Google Search practically is an useless product which unfortunately has no alternative. We used RESTful API for customer services and other stuffs for custom application. Indeed, API has kind of site specific directory websites along with the description and usage of the API by the clients. It is likely that, as WordPress is the most commonly abused platform for spamming and Google practically has failed to rank good websites, highly penalized the original websites and promote content scrapping websites which uses RSS feed to create content. They outranked the main website as simply the scrapper website is very light (it is not intended to be well designed, hence light on size) and runs on free WordPress.com™s good cloud infrastructure. To counteract, people usually add links in RSS Feeds and only publish the excerpt “ still those come up higher in SERP as there automated plug ins to add Keywords, bold, italics etc automatically.

With Publicly available RESTful API for WordPress, the chance of abuse might be increased.

This is a recovered post from Google Cache due to WordPress and PHP’s Failure.
