Plugin Description
An Event Espresso 4 plugin for providing an RESTful interface for Event Espresso’s events data.
We’ve reached the first milestone which provides read access to all EE4 data. That means you can build client-side javascript code, mobile apps, and programs in any language (and on any server) that can read data used in Event Espresso 4.
So what’s great about the EE4 REST API and what can you do with it? Here’s a start:
- Unlike its predecessor, the EE3 JSON API, this add-on is compatible with Event Espresso 4 (not Event Espresso 3)
- It’s built using the WordPress REST API (aka WP API). That means many plugins that work with the WP API work with it too. WP API gives the EE4 REST API a solid foundation by handling authentication, providing endpoint discovery, and supplying lots of the “behind-the-scenes” code.
- It provides read access to all Event Espresso 4 data: events, tickets, datetimes, registrations, custom questions and answers, payment methods, and configuration data. Even Event Espresso 4 add-ons’ data, like from the Mailchimp Add-on or the People Add-on, is available by default. If we’ve missed something tell us in the Github issue tracker!
- It uses Event Espresso’s models system for querying the database. This gives API clients nearly as much querying abilities as server-side plugins.
Documentation, installation and usages guides are located on developer.eventespresso.com/ee-plugin/ee4-json-rest-api/
This plugin also requires you have the master branch of the WP API active on your site.
