Hi,
Just to make sure I understand correctly:
a) In my index.php (bootstrap)
$front = Zend_Controller_Front::getInstance();
$front->addModuleDirectory('../application/');
// I only wat my RestController of my default module to be handled by the
Zend_Rest_Route
$restRoute = new Zend_Rest_Route($front, array(), array(
'default' => array('rest')));
$front->getRouter()->addRoute('rest', $restRoute);
// Go Speed Racer...Go!
$front->dispatch();
b) In my application/default/controllers/RestController
class RestController extends Zend_Rest_Controller
{
public function getAction()
{
$request = $this->getRequest();
$params['method'] = $request->getParam('action');
$params['request']['object'] = $request;
$restServer = new Zend_Rest_Server();
$restServer->setClass('My_API_Rest_Server');
$restServer->handle($params);
}
}
c) In my Client
$client = new Zend_Rest_Client('http://mysite.com/default/rest');
$rc = $client->mymethod('x', 'y')->get();
This will call the mymethod of My_API_Rest_Server?
