如何在 PHP 中创建 Rest 服务器

Question

I'm going to create a Restful web service API using PHP. I've googled and found how to create a rest client, but I want to know how to create rest server instead.

I already have a MySQL database to retrieve the data but I don't know how to output my results in XML format.

Answer 1

You can take a look at PHP-CRUD-API , which is an extensible PHP script that I wrote that does exactly what you want: provide a REST API based on a MySQL Database.

Answer 2

Take a look at RockWall engine. The main feature of RockWall is multiple REST requests by single HTTP request.
