Short Description Easily talk with the WordPress REST-API to access and display your WordPress (model) data without rest-authentication errors when creating Javascript Themes for consistent views by all users/clients accessing your WordPress site. Description and Features We chose the bundled node-wpapi isomorphic Javascript client, because it is the simplest way to get up and running quickly to display live website data in your installed WordPress website, using a Javascript-controlled Theme or Plugin The WEB Landscape is changing. Today, we can use Javascript to build WordPress Themes. WordPress becomes our Model, which we can theme with Javascript using the WordPress REST-API. This plugin was developed to make life easy for web developers who which to create full-fledged Javascript WordPress Themes OR Javascript-PHP WordPress Themes using a Javascript Framework/Library like: jQuery, React, OpenUI5, et.c. for use in a WordPress installation with the wpapi.js rest-client. It relies on the node-wpapi isomorphic javascript client to access the WP REST-API. The problem with accessing the REST-API using javascript-clients is the headache of authentication issues and private data access, which can hamper fluid display of the web-page, leading to rest-errors when using Javascript to display the data. This plugin works under the hood and makes the javascript-client object, ‘wp’ that interfaces with the WP REST-API globally accessible for direct and easy use in a javascript(.js) file under the scope of a WordPress installation. It handles three authentication use cases: admin user, non-admin user and for a client from inside a WP installation. Say your WordPress website url is e.g: http://talker-test.com or http://localhost:8080 WordPress switches to Cookie WP Authentication for switched to when an administrator is currently logged in to the WordPress installation. Basic WP-Authentication is switched to when a Client accesses your WordPress website When an authenticated non-admin user, like an Author or Subscriber is currently logged in to your website, it displays data using Basic WP-Authentication. We then make the WPAPI global as a globally scoped javascript object, wp, for use in a WordPress Installation to talk with the WP REST-API on the go. So, with added ease, you can start building your next Javascript Themes for WordPress, or accessing the WP REST-API So start coding and talking with the WordPress REST-API and display consistent, unhindered data, as you permit to all your clients, and users. See Demo WP Installation that shows how this plugin is used to display live website data from the WordPress REST-API In it we created a sample JS-controlled WordPress theme using jQuery and the ‘wp’ object provided by our bundled javascript client, which our plugin has made globally scoped and authenticated.
