This REST Webservices will serve as testing purposes, before the full 3 layered architecture is on place. So no security is regarded, nor authentication etc..

There's a test client in the CVS:

http://cvs.moodle.org/contrib/patches/dfws/client/clientrest/

It work just copying directory into public apache dir, edit the "config_rest.php" and set $CFG->serveurl to you moodle webservice rest connector url.

For example, if you moodle url is:

http://localhost/moodle

the $CFG->serverurl must be:

$CFG->serverurl = 'http://localhost/moodle/webservice/inout/rest/inout.php';

That's all!

For daredevils only!

We will keep this example updated to test every API functionality.

Rest connector is done for the implemented API functions. Source can be found here:

http://cvs.moodle.org/contrib/patches/dfws/webservice/inout/rest/

The 3 main files are:

- inout.php: general acces to functions. Uses implicit params via "get_file_argument" moodle function to select which API function must be called.
- lib.php: support library
- wrapper (dir): contains API wrappers libraries

Inside wrappers, every lib contains a certain number of wrapper functions.

Rest connector works properly with basic API functions wrappers. From now we only have to code new wrappers and incorporate authentication methods.
