Did you check the documentation at http://devs.x-cart.com/en/basics/rest_api_documentation.html ?

Rest API is a method to manipulate objects that are subclass of \XLite\Model\AEntity. So, you should check what models the listed features add and access their methods via the API.

Thank you. Orders, products and categories are fine. I want to know how to write a new API service that will give us the static pages list and details?

How to create and get the featured products list?

How to create and get the bestsellers products list?

Bestsellers, new arrivals and other listed entities are \XLite\Model\Product.
So, you should retrive product models and use the _cnd parameter to filter the returned data.
I'm not sure if the modules provide all necessary search handlers in their Repo classes (the _cnd parameter is translated to prepareCnd*()" methods of Repo classes). You may have to add such methods manually by creating a custom module.

Hi Team,

I have created a separate page called showproducts.php (Client application that is hosted in separate website domain, not the main website where X-Cart 5.2.15 is hosted). I have accessed the main site products data using REST API. I am facing two problems at the moment.



1) In the single call "all products, categories, manufacturers, pages" are called. We have created one custom module and when the module is enabled, all these data are pulled in a single web service call. It is very heave data. Obviously this substantially increases the page loading. will it be possible to access products data separately, categories data separately by calling different web service call when the module is enabled. I am able to create different web services by creating different modules for each service. I do want "One module, multiple web services"


2) The main site has more than 30,000 products. I can use limit option to pull first 1000 records. We don't want to call web services to load 20/100 products every time. In this case, "Time To First Byte (TTFB) is very long" when we work in local enviornment or another server. How can this be increased.


Thanks,

1) I'm sorry, but I don't understand what you mean there. What is the problem of creating a single module that handles multiple custom API calls?

2) What do you want to increase? Are you sure that retrieving 30K database records is a good idea? What do you want to achieve in the end?

Hi qualiteam ,

The Problem ,We Are facing whenever we call our custom module using REST API
it's takes more time to show output even through it has less data, we want know how to reduce this time.

When inspect the page, Loaded for TTFB(Time To First Byte ) time is too long even through it in our localhost.

How reduce this time?? to Show output more quick..

Thanks,
