Re: How To Use POST HTTP Method in REST cakePHP?

[rijal.asep.nugr...@gmail.com]

my problem has solved. I combine with post httpsocket
http://book.cakephp.org/view/803/post

in web service project, i work according 
http://book.cakephp.org/view/477/The-Simple-Setup

ex:
1. Make Recipes Controller
<?php
// file : app/controllers/recipes_controller.php
class RecipesController extends AppController {
   var $data=array();
   var $components=array('RequestHandler');
   var $helpers=array('Html', 'Xml');

   function add(){
         if (isset($_POST[0])) $this->data['Recipe']=$_POST[0];

         if ($this->data){
           if ($this->Recipe->save($this->data)) {
                   $data['result']=1;
                   $data['message']='Recipe has been added';
           }
           else {
                   $data['result']=0;
                   $data['message']='Error. please try
again.';
            }
         }
         $this->set(compact('data'));
         $this->RequestHandler->renderAs($this, 'xml');
     }
}
?>

2. make file app/views/layout/xml/default.ctp
<?php
        // file : app/views/layout/xml/default.ctp
        echo $xml->header();
        echo $content_for_layout;
?>

3. make file app/views/recipes/xml/add.ctp
<container>
        <?php echo $xml->serialize($data);?>
</container>

DONE for web service project.

then we need to make recipe project to consume web service.
1. Make Recipe model
<?php
        // file : app/models/recipe.php
        class Recipe extends AppModel{
                var $useTable=false;
        }
?>

2.  make Recipes Controller
<?php
        // file : app/controllers/recipes_controller.php
        class RecipesController extends AppController{
                var $components=array('Session');

                function beforeFilter(){
                        App::import('Core', 'HttpSocket');
                        App::import('Core', 'Xml');
                }

                function add(){
                        if ($this->data){

                                $HttpSocket = new HttpSocket();
                                $data = 
$HttpSocket->post('http://localhost/recipeswebservice/
recipes/add', array($this->data['Recipe']));
                                $data = new Xml($data);
                                $data = $data->toArray();
                                if ($data['Container']['StdClass']['result']) {
                                        
$this->Session->setFlash($data['Container']['StdClass']
['message']);
                                        $this->redirect('/');
                                        die();
                                }
                                else {
                                        
$this->Session->setFlash($data['Container']['StdClass']
['message']);
                                }

                        }
                }
        }
?>
3. Make view for add recipe
<span><?php $session->flash(); ?></span><br/>



<?php echo $form->create('Recipe', array('url'=>'/recipes/add'));?>

<?php echo $form->input('recipe', array('type'=>'textarea'));?>

<?php echo $form->end('Add');?>

ALL DONE
