Goal
We want a fast REST server that anybody can request.
similar to the Hub implementation
We extend the Moodle REST server and overwrite the protected function authenticate_user().
local/plugins/db/services.php
install the web service functions + the pre-build service
local/plugins/db/install.php
- create a user (password + username could be set into the plugin admin by the admin)
- create a role with required capabilities by the web service function
- also set the webservice/user:rest for this role
- assign the role to the user on system context
- create a token for the service/user
local/plugins/server.php:authenticate_user()
Extend the Moodle rest server.
- load the public token
- call the normal parent::authenticate_user();
