Retrieve data passed to extended api
-
I have extended [WP API][1] plugin to provide an API which can process documents.
Routes
`public function register_routes($routes)
{
$documents_routes = array(
‘/v1/documents’ => array(
array(array($this, ‘create_document’), WP_JSON_Server::CREATABLE),
)
);
$new_routes = array_merge($routes, $documents_routes);
return $new_routes;
}`Callback function
`public function create_document($data, $_files = null){
if(!empty($_files)) {
// process file
}// how to retrieve
}`Request
POST /api/v1/documents/ HTTP/1.1 Host: localhost Cache-Control: no-cache Postman-Token: d5277e1c-12ac-309a-034f-135173b7c7f2 Content-Type: multipart/form-data; boundary=----WebKitFormBoundary7MA4YWxkTrZu0gW ----WebKitFormBoundary7MA4YWxkTrZu0gW Content-Disposition: form-data; name="doc_id" 3268360 ----WebKitFormBoundary7MA4YWxkTrZu0gW Content-Disposition: form-data; name="file"; filename="PINS REST API Documentation v1.2.doc" Content-Type: application/msword ----WebKitFormBoundary7MA4YWxkTrZu0gW Content-Disposition: form-data; name="case_reference" EN0102234 ----WebKitFormBoundary7MA4YWxkTrZu0gW Content-Disposition: form-data; name="author" Ghazanfar ----WebKitFormBoundary7MA4YWxkTrZu0gW Content-Disposition: form-data; name="stage" 1 ----WebKitFormBoundary7MA4YWxkTrZu0gW Content-Disposition: form-data; name="category" Application ----WebKitFormBoundary7MA4YWxkTrZu0gW Content-Disposition: form-data; name="type" Document ----WebKitFormBoundary7MA4YWxkTrZu0gW Content-Disposition: form-data; name="description" This is test document ----WebKitFormBoundary7MA4YWxkTrZu0gW**The Problem**
I have some properties such as doc_id, case_reference, description, author, size etc which will be passed to the api along with the file.
Now the problem is I want to be able to retrieve all data if content-type:form-data is used. What is the best way to retrieve all passed data in the callback function efficiently?
