| 9 | | '''[wiki:S3REST]''' provides a generic '''RESTful API''' ([http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Representational_State_Transfer Representational State Transfer]) for Sahana Eden database resources, i.e. it can map HTTP requests to data resources and function calls. In particular, it maps resource addresses (=URL's) and HTTP methods (=GET, PUT, DELETE etc.) to CRUD actions, and then invokes hooks to so called ''method handlers'' (provided by the calling controller) to execute those actions. |
