Convert the application into a powerful API. Install the Gato GraphQL package to convert it into a GraphQL server, and the REST API package to enable adding REST endpoints.
Follow the instructions under Bootstrap a PoP API for WordPress (even though CMS-agnostic, only the WordPress adapters have been presently implemented).
Via Composer
composer require pop-api/api
Add the following code in the .htaccess
file to enable API endpoint /api/
:
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /
# Rewrite from /some-url/api/ to /some-url/?scheme=api
RewriteCond %{SCRIPT_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteCond %{SCRIPT_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteRule ^(.*)/api/?$ /$1/?scheme=api [L,P,QSA]
# Rewrite from api/ to /?scheme=api
RewriteCond %{SCRIPT_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteCond %{SCRIPT_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteRule ^api/?$ /?scheme=api [L,P,QSA]
</IfModule>
To add pretty API endpoints for the extensions (GraphQL => /api/graphql/
), REST => /api/rest/
), add the following code to file .htaccess
:
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /
# a. Resource endpoints
# 1 and 2. GraphQL or REST: Rewrite from /some-url/api/(graphql|rest)/ to /some-url/?scheme=api&datastructure=(graphql|rest)
RewriteCond %{SCRIPT_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteCond %{SCRIPT_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteRule ^(.*)/api/(graphql|rest)/?$ /$1/?scheme=api&datastructure=$2 [L,P,QSA]
# b. Homepage single endpoint (root)
# 1 and 2. GraphQL or REST: Rewrite from api/(graphql|rest)/ to /?scheme=api&datastructure=(graphql|rest)
RewriteCond %{SCRIPT_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteCond %{SCRIPT_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteRule ^api/(graphql|rest)/?$ /?scheme=api&datastructure=$1 [L,P,QSA]
</IfModule>
Add the following code in the Nginx configuration's server
entry, to enable API endpoint /api/
. Please notice that the resolver below is the one for Docker; replace this value for your environment.
location ~ ^(.*)/api/?$ {
# Resolver for Docker. Change to your own
resolver 127.0.0.11 [::1];
# If adding $args and it's empty, it does a redirect from /api/ to ?scheme=api.
# Then, add $args only if not empty
set $redirect_uri "$scheme://$server_name$1/?scheme=api";
if ($args) {
set $redirect_uri "$scheme://$server_name$1/?$args&scheme=api";
}
proxy_pass $redirect_uri;
}
To add pretty API endpoints for the extensions (GraphQL => /api/graphql/
), REST => /api/rest/
), add the following code:
location ~ ^(.*)/api/(rest|graphql)/?$ {
# Resolver for Docker. Change to your own
resolver 127.0.0.11 [::1];
set $redirect_uri "$scheme://$server_name$1/?scheme=api&datastructure=$2";
if ($args) {
set $redirect_uri "$scheme://$server_name$1/?$args&scheme=api&datastructure=$2";
}
proxy_pass $redirect_uri;
}
