I want to learn how to create a rest api url so that I could get and post information into my mysql database using that url.
Googled alot and read various article and didnt find anything precise to learn on this. All are start with about apis and ends with already created rest urls.
Can anyone help on this ?
How to create my own url and authorization key etc ?
Thanks in advance !!
This should help you:
https://github.com/mevdschee/php-crud-api
CRUD stands for:
Create
Read
Update
Delete
This api is written in PHP and gives you a simple and comfortable opportunity to
access your database (MySQL, SQLite 3, PostgreSQL 9 orMS SQL Server 2012). Its well documented and its gonna be easy to get started.
If you need something more custom and not only raw data you should write your own api with help of an framework for example the SlimFramework, where you can specify the methods for requests.
Cause for rest apis there are more methods than GET and POST.
Good Luck ;)

I've got a question related to oracle database and working with an API/web service to extract data from said database for use.
My experience in the area is limited so I'm hoping for some discussion here about it. My goal is to create a web service that has several fields and the should all fields submitted match an entry in the database, the program should return something positive, lets just say "true". If false, it will identify that there is a problem with the input.
My understanding right now is I can first use an API to expose the data, which I can then manipulate and query-check with a web service? Correct me if I am wrong with this general/overall plan. Moving on from this, if anyone have any relevant advice or programs that might prove to be useful here, but the main goal of posting this is to get a high-level understanding of the process.
Also, the plan is to use REST/JSON services here. Thanks all.
I am also not very skilled yet but if I correctly understand your question the answer could be ORDS
I found many essential informations here
With ORDS is possible to POST a request associated with a store procedure that do all the validations that the client can't do.
My question is a simple enough one but I can't quite seem to find a good tutorial on it. Maybe I am not being specific enough with what I am asking but I can't really type an explanation into google and expect an answer.
So here is my question;
I currently have a website up and running on a hosting site and this hosting site allows me to have a database up on their server as well.
So my question is how do I read data from this database that I have setup using phpAdmin? Also, it is a mySQL database.
The website will be acting like a review site built I just want to use it to learn web development as well. So What I am trying to do it read articles that I will be saving in the database so I can display them on my website.
Any help or advice in regard to this is much appreciated.
Thanks in advance,

you cant read directly from a Database using AngularJS or any Client-side framework , you need a back-end / server-side language such as PHP ,C# ,Java..
to connect to your MySql ,MSSql... ,
so in your case your need to create PHP script which will connect to the Database and provide an interface you can access with (GET , POST methods ) using AngularJS ($http.post("url"...)
for a best practice (if you want) the Data should be in JSON format.
We are very struggled about getting and posting table data for Navistion Database.We need getting data for Navistion DB to our local(sqlLit) DataBase and posting data SqlLit Db to Navistion DB.In PHoneGap
We are goggled.But no luck.So Please give any documentation and link .Please help me.
PhoneGap/Cordova can work with other databases when you use middleware on your server to respond to it. So for example, your server (with the Navistion DB) could use PHP or ColdFusion to respond to Ajax requests from your app. It would handle taking the request, querying the db, and converting the response to JSON. There is no documentation link for this as it is too abstract of a question really.
Agree with Raymond - the question is too general to give any kind of recommendation. Maybe if you could elaborate it a bit - at least outline the task you need to solve, it would be easier to suggest something.
Anyway, I presume, you don't want to insert data into the Navision DB directly, but need an interface to Nav functionality. My first idea would be to look at Web services. Some documentation is available on msdn: Web services in Nav. You can expose Nav objects (Codeunits, Pages and Queries) through a web service and call it from PhoneGap.
I am doing a Web project, where I am using HTML5 and Django to store database in sqlite3. The part being, since I had to use python, I installed mod_python for apache2. Now the thing is I went through many sites for head start to store the data and retrieve it. When I check in google related to how to use mod_python I did get certain information on how I can send a request to a .py file and then execute it. But with Django documentation providing a tutorial which is to develop a polling webApp, I am not finding it measurable to the part I am trying to achieve.
I want to send the request from an Html file where I have a search box and some radio buttons, to Django through Apache2 (mod_python) and then access my database in sqlite3. Please could anyone give me brief idea on whether I am doing it right? Also if yes, can u give me a hint as in how can I send the request from HTML file to the database from Django and mod_python being used? I am a bit confused with Django tutorial.
Please if anyone can just let me know what exactly I should do! Or if any link with a proper guidance would be of great help.
Thank you.
Well, for starters, if you can install and use mod_wsgi instead of mod_python, you should -- mod_python hasn't been supported for years. I'd also strongly recommend that you use anything other than SQLite for a production web application -- SQLite doesn't cope well with multiple simultaneous transactions.
If you're stuck using mod_python, then see the Django documentation for using mod_python.
Once you've got that working, the rest of your questions can be answered by the Django Tutorial, particularly part 4, which covers the use of HTML forms with Django views and templates:

I am really confused on how to get data in and out of an android app from the internet.
I imagined that I would store information in the mysql db on the server I already have set up. But from what I have read, I would need some type of in-between web service to make queries with data sent from the app.
Can anybody toss me some tips on how to get something like this started.
Or, if you know of a better way, let me know about it.
This question has been asked several times, for example here: How to get from a MySql server to an Android app?.
Bottom line - you don't connect directly. You have something on your server (like RESTful) that you connect with via HTTP.
Try this method out. I will be using this method for the current project i am working on.
You basically create a php script on a server and use http posts to send the data to the script, read the tutorial linked below for better explanation.
