Registration and Examples

Ok, for those of you who need registration, here is what I have come up with. Please note that the methods below that are empty and do nothing have arguments passed that may not work. The api only sends certain data to certain functions (and “_” data to all), so the $data param will only be available to some of the methods (the ones responsible for creation/editing). This extension creates a new user with the data passed to it (ext_pass, ext_login, ext_nicename, ext_email, ext_display_name, ext_nickname, ext_first_name, ext_last_name) and also will create additional user meta under the key (as an array) $data[‘ext_usermeta’].

The array to be passed will look something like this before being serialized:

$userparams = array(
	'ext_pass' => 'fakerpasw',
	'ext_login' => 'FAKERUNAME',
	//'ext_nicename' => '',
	'ext_email' => 'fake@faker.fake',
	//'ext_display_name' => ,
	//'ext_nickname' => ,
	'ext_first_name' => 'FAKEGUEY',
	'ext_last_name' => 'FAKINGNAME',
	'ext_usermeta' => array(
		'address' => '123 fake st.',
		'city' => 'KA',
		'state' => 'US',
		'postalcode' => '92109',
		'mobilenum' => '123-456-7890',
		'carrier' => 'npt',
		'dob' => '1/2/13',
		'sex' => 'male',
		'wanttext' => 'no',
		'colorwant' => 'pink'
	)
);

FYI, the media is uploaded during a new post entry. It’s done at the bottom of insert_post in the ‘json_insert_post’ hook. That hook is declared in plugin.php and calls ‘attachThumbnail’ in the wp-json-media class. Looking at that class, it seems as though there is an expected media id as a parameter in the data object[‘featured_image’]. This doesn’t seem to make a whole lot of sense unless it is expected that media must first be uploaded via the /media endpoint, the media id retrieved, then the media id provided as a data parameter in the new or updated post. Seems kind of round-about, but I’m not sure whether they can both be done at the same time. I will investigate and post here with finding for anyone interested.

insert_post does not have new metadata insert with either new or updated posts. I created the class in the previous post and added: apply_filters(‘json_insertadd_postmeta’, $post_ID, $data, $update); after if ( is_wp_error( $post_ID ) ). It needs to be added here because you don’t need to add meta to a post id that doesn’t exits. So, if there is no error and you have a valid post id, you can add the filter for json_insertadd_postmeta. I am only passing $data and not $post because the $data variable will contain the meta by whatever method you choose to have it sent. In your hook, you will be able access that data and the post id and with those variables, update whatever post meta is passed in whatever way you feel is necessary.

Uhm, without going into the method of trying to send the same data via an ajax call, instead, all you have to do is put that into a php file, and use ajax to call that php file. So, you have ajax.js which calls middleman.php. middleman.php has the cul code you have listed, gets the data back into a variable and spits it out into the underverse where the ajax call can retrieve it and do with the returned data as you desire.
