XML + HTTP Put -> PHP -> CDML with REST Style Arch

[joseppic]

Here goes..

I would like to get XML data into FileMaker by writing an XML FileMaker Gateway in PHP. The idea is that external apps will only have to call my URI & post the XML.

I will then parse it into CDML format and post it using PHP and a Templating system.

I would like to ensure the Gateway, how it is called and how it is secured all

abide by the REST Architecture Style so that all interworkings and interfaces are future proof.

Has anyone done this and documented it yet?

Does anyone have any incisive advice?

Does anyone have any 'make my life easier' sample code?

Fingers crossed,

Joseppic.

Check the notes at XML Central ( www.filemaker.com ), they give you some insight to the Gateway (WebCompanion). There is a reasonable document on the structures required.

All the best.
