Re: Getting CakePhp to talk to Android devices
To test HTTP Post web services for edit action, I tried something like; curl -X POST -H "Content-Type: text/xml" -T local-file.xml http://127.0.0.1/myproject/edit/1.xml The problem is I do not know how local-file.xml should look like as there is no documentation that I can find on this aspect. Is there any sample xml file that someone here can show? Thank you very much.

Re: Getting CakePhp to talk to Android devices
Dear Cakephp gurus, I managed to get web services for view and index working by following the instructions at the link below. http://book.cakephp.org/2.0/en/development/rest.html View and index are easy because it uses HTTP GET. For edit and delete which uses HTTP POST, I am at a loss. I do not know how the URL will look like in the first place to edit certain data fields. Can someone advise or provide some useful link? Thank you very much.

Re: Getting CakePhp to talk to Android devices
Thank you. I am a newbie. I don't even see the answer when it is presented to me. On careful reading, I think the links already provided the tips on how to add CRUD web services.

You are doing the Cake part or the Android part?

Re: Getting CakePhp to talk to Android devices
Thank you for all the helpful answers. Are there ready samples of web services to enable a CakePHP app to allow Android apps to retrieve and update data from MySql? It is hard for a newbie like me to be able to start work based on API documentation. Thank you.

Re: Getting CakePhp to talk to Android devices
Create a REST api and let your Android device consume it http://book.cakephp.org/2.0/en/development/rest.html and http://book.cakephp.org/2.0/en/views/json-and-xml-views.html HTH Tarique On Thu, Jul 26, 2012 at 4:01 PM, Lightee wrote: > Dear CakePHP experts, > > I am thinking of creating an Android app to talk to CakePHP server app. > Sorry for my amateur questions because I am still a newbie.

Re: Getting CakePhp to talk to Android devices
Take a look the Xml/Json view coming with 2.1 http://book.cakephp.org/2.0/en/views/json-and-xml-views.html but never ever let it talk to mysql directly ..

Guess you could have the layout+views in an easy-to-interpret format (maybe xml or json) when returning the data to your Android App? 2012/7/26 Lightee : > Dear CakePHP experts, > > I am thinking of creating an Android app to talk to CakePHP server app. > Sorry for my amateur questions because I am still a newbie.

Getting CakePhp to talk to Android devices
Dear CakePHP experts, I am thinking of creating an Android app to talk to CakePHP server app. Sorry for my amateur questions because I am still a newbie. Is there anything extra I need to do on the CakePHP side? Are web services the way to go? Can the Android talk to MySql database directly and pull out data?
