you can use cURL for simulating post requests:
$data = 'data[User][token]=87f77a583929c700119878128dc108bd62ca7772';
$data .= '&data[Ride][start_address]=Osijek, Croatia';
$data .= '&data[Ride][end_address]=Pula, Croatia';
$ch = curl_init('http://domain.com/controller/action.json');
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_POST, 1);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER, TRUE);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_POSTFIELDS, $data);
$head = curl_exec($ch);
print_r($head);
curl_close($ch);
Then, in some controller you go:
function action() {
if ($this->RequetsHandler->ext === 'json') {
//ext could be an xml also, and here you do stuff with post data
}
}
also inside your routes.php file:
Router::parseExtensions('json');
hope this example helps you.
