Weāre pleased to announce the release of apostrophe-headless. apostrophe-headless is a new module that adds a REST API to content types you create with apostrophe-pieces. While most often used for read-only access it is also fully capable of write operations.
The apostrophe-headless module works together with Apostropheās pieces and schemas to provide the fastest possible road to an application with access to all the data it needs, including full access to joins.
See:
Enjoy!
This looks really great, Iāve been playing around with it. I have a question, is there any way to configure it to do single item look-ups with values other than ā_idā? Slug seems to be a natural need no?
Yes, you can:
āYou can use any cursor filter that has a sanitize method via the query string. Itās not hard to add custom filters.ā
This means you can use ?title=xxx, etc. to look for exact matches. See the cursor filter documentation:
http://apostrophecms.org/docs/tutorials/intermediate/cursors.html
(Note that there are also āsearchā and āautocompleteā cursor filters you may find very useful.)
Thank you! Iām off to the races.
Cheers.
I have another question 
This is regarding using apostrophe-headless with apostrophe-blog.
Iāve been digging in and for some reason when I attempt to add the restApi value to the apostrophe-blog config, Iām not getting anything from the api. Apostrophe-blog is an extension of apostrophe-pieces, Iām wondering what Iām missing. Is this not intended to work in this fashion? Hoping this can be answered really easily
Hi Blaine, please send how-to questions to stackoverflow and tag them apostrophe-cms. It is much easier for others to find those answers later there. The forum is for announcements and general discussion. Thanks!
