I'm trying to get a basic query going with the new V2 API and Angular in WordPress 4.4.1. Perhaps someone can help me understand why the URL, /wp-json/wp/v2/posts
, gives a JSON response with a 404.
Browsing to that URL gives me JSON like this:
{"code":"rest_no_route","message":"No route was found matching the URL and request method","data":{"status":404}}
And here is the JavaScript I'm using to make that .GET
var base = 'http://localhost:8888/recruitler';
var posts = '/wp-json/wp/v2/posts';
var user = '/wp-json/wp/v2/users/'; // append user id
var s = '/wp-json/wp/v2/posts?filter[s]='; // append search term
// basic HTTP call with Angular
var app = angular.module('app', ['ngRoute'])
app.factory('myService', function($http) {
var myService = {
async: function() {
// $http returns a promise, which has a then function, which also returns a promise
var promise = $http.get( base+posts ).then(function (response) {
// The then function here is an opportunity to modify the response
console.log(response);
// The return value gets picked up by the then in the controller.
return response.data;
});
// Return the promise to the controller
return promise;
}
};
return myService;
});
app.controller('MainCtrl', function( myService, $scope ) {
// Call the async method and then do stuff with what is returned inside our own then function
myService.async().then(function(d) {
$scope.data = d;
});
});
UPDATE: This must be a local environment issue. Live websites work just fine. I've tested and this issue persists on all my local WAMP and MAMP dev sites. Restarting the server and or checking this answer got it working.
