具有Web服务的Drupal 7网站

Question

I have a Drupal 7 site.
I want to create some web-services written in PHP, that uses Drupal's database. For example export/ import the users.

• Can I create the services under the Drupal site folder?
• Is there any module for that? or I just read the data from the database?

Answer 1

You can use the services module to create your own RESTful service. There are several articles on the net on how to do this, eg:

• This article
• A very detailed article from IBM
• Here is a step-by-step video tutorial on services with CRUD operations
• You can find a lot of info, a description of the API and examples in the services module documentation page
