Web service protocols

Name	Moodle Ver.	Description	CORS	Issue
AMF	2.0	Adobe protocol to communicate with Flash/Flex apps	Not supported
REST (returning XML)	2.0	XML data accessed through a REST API (not restful)	Supported (3.0 and onwards)
REST (returning JSON)	2.2	JSON data accessed through a REST API (not restful)	Supported (3.0 and onwards)	MDL-29242
REST (returning JSONP)	2.X	Would be very useful for client-side JavaScript	Not supported	MDL-29913
JSON	2.X	JSON server receives a JSON encoded params and return JSON encoded values.	Not supported	MDL-21341
SOAP	2.0	Very important for interoperating with Java and .Net applications. There was a partial implementation JAVA/.Net in Moodle 2.0, but it does not work for anything but the most trivial functions. It is fully working with PHP clients.	Not supported	MDL-20804, MDL-28988, MDL-28989
XMLRPC	2.0	XML remote-procedure call.	Not supported

Web service functions

Naming convention

We updated (regularised) the naming convention in Moodle 2.2. See MDL-29106 for those details.

All functions should be named as follows:

wsfunction = fullcomponent_methodname
fullcomponent = frankenstyle (eg core_xxxx or mod_xxx etc)
methodname = verb_noun(s)
verb = get|create|delete|update
noun = moodle objects, usually plural (eg posts, discussions, users, courses etc)
