hackalive Posted December 24, 2011 Share Posted December 24, 2011 Hi guys, I need to develop an API for the web-service I am building. The API needs to work like the Apple iPhone one, when user data is requested the user is prompted by me (forced) the developer does not make the prompt. Anyways, I have no idea where to start in building the API with PHP ect. So any help/suggestions is greatly appreciated. A Merry Christmas and many thanks in advance to you all.

AGuyWithAthing Posted December 24, 2011 Share Posted December 24, 2011 Restful JSON service here is a simple little tutorial if you're interested . With my experience in iPhone development the iPhone has a great JSON library TouchJSON Well you will have to decide what the iPhone needs to do and what it will relay on from the API. Usually some level of authentication is a good starting place, then add some functionality around it. Merry Christmas.

hackalive Posted December 24, 2011 Author Share Posted December 24, 2011 @AGuyWithAthing: The iPhone does nothing, I was making a statement that I would like to build an API for my service that works LIKE the iOS API layer does, in regards to the prompting of users for information.
