Hi and thanks for your inquire.
As you can see from online documentation, jBackend provides the basic "framework" to extend Joomla with custom API. It provides a plugin system for adding new APIs and support new extensions. At the moment only two plugins are ready and they provide the following API:
User Module API
www.selfget.com/documentation/jbackend-joomla30/user-module-api.html
Content Module API
www.selfget.com/documentation/jbackend-joomla30/content-module-api.html
Now I'm working on new modules (K2 is almost ready) and on J2 porting, as required by many users. But developers can extend jBackend with their plugins. I will provide online documentation for developers soon, but existing code is really clear, and if you need more info send me a private message to info(at)selfget.com.
About your questions:
- login using username/password, (for requests for logged users, do we need to include always the username/password in the request ?)
Yes, is already supported and t works with session cookie just like Joomla, so there's no need to pass user/pass on each request after logged in.
- regirster,
Yes, already supported, Look at API docs.
- create new articles ?
Not supported. It should be implemented in the content module or in a new (admin) module.
- upload pictures for thoses articles ?
Not supported. It should be implemented in the content module or in a new (admin) module.
- get details of categories and articles.
Yes, already supported. Look at API docs for details about supported fields. New fields can be added easily.
Kind regards,
Luigi
