Introduction

The API system of the WAPS framework is based on the JSON standard. Calls are primarily structured using POST andGET requests. Like the CLI system, the API system is based on drag and drop. New API's are simply dragged into the core / API folder. They follow the apiName.API.php scheme in the naming.

Addressing an API

An API is called via the API.php interface. The prefix of an API serves as the identifier of each API. Accordingly, a call is made as follows: /API.php?ApiMode=apiName

All subsequent parameters are freely variable. However, it is recommended unless otherwise necessary, set to POST requests. This means that less information is sent publicly.

Create a new API

When creating a new API, you must make sure that it responds to every request with either the expected response or an error message. Since API's of the framework are based on the JSON standard, the answers to the methods of the static classJsonHandler.class.php can be used. Further information can be found in the Static Class Guide.
