Fuel-API-Controller

The API Controller brings RAILS-inspired output-format handling to FuelPHP. It's like a mix of Rest Controller and Template Controller.

Like all Controllers, you create a class in the fuel/app/class/controller directory. They need to extend the Api_Controller class and are prefixed by default by "Controller_". Below is an example of the controller "test":

class Controller_Test extends Api_Controller
{
	// Specify a template for HTML output
	public $template = 'template';
	
	// Notice the REST inspired syntax
	public function get_list()
	{
		$this->handles(array(
			'json' => true, // Json, true that
			'rss' => 'test/feed', // Specify a View File for RSS
			'html' => 'test/list'
		));
		
		// Note that you have to set the template title a tiny bit different
		$this->title('My Test Controller Method');
		
		// And away we go...
		$this->response(array(
			'foo' => 'bar',
			'baz' => array(
				1, 2, 3
			)
		));
	}
}
