To call a Zend_Rest_Server
service, you must supply a GET/POST method
argument
with a value that is the method you wish to call. You can then follow that up with any number of arguments
using either the name of the argument (i.e. "who") or using arg
following by the numeric position
of the argument (i.e. "arg1").
![]() |
Numeric index |
---|---|
Numeric arguments use a 1-based index. |
To call sayHello
from the example above, you can use either:
?method=sayHello&who=Davey&when=Day
or:
?method=sayHello&arg1=Davey&arg2=Day
When returning values, to return a custom status, you may return an array with a status
key.
If you wish to return custom XML, simply return a DomDocument
, DomElement
or SimpleXMLElement
object.
Example 4.9. Return Custom XML
<?php require_once 'Zend/Rest/Server.php'; function sayHello($who, $when) { $xml ='<?xml version="1.0" encoding="ISO-8859-1"?> <mysite> <value>Hey $who! Hope you're having a good $when</value> <code>200</code> </mysite>'; $xml = simplexml_load_string($xml); return $xml; } $server = new Zend_Rest_Server(); $server->addFunction('sayHello'); $server->handle(); ?>
The response from the service will be returned without modification to the client.
