WP API Developer Console

An open source version of https://developer.wordpress.com/docs/api/console/ that works with WP API.

Setting Up

Step 1: Creating a Consumer

Once you have WP API and the OAuth server plugins activated on your server, you'll need to create a "consumer". This is an identifier for the application, and includes a "key" and "secret", both needed to link to your site.

To create the consumer, run the following on your server:

$ wp oauth1 add

ID: 4
Key: sDc51JgH2mFu
Secret: LnUdIsyhPFnURkatekRIAUfYV7nmP4iF3AVxkS5PRHPXxgOW

Note the key and secret returned here. You'll need those in a moment.

Step 2: Save your configuration

Time to link the console to your site. Copy config.sample.json to config.json and begin editing. You'll need to set all options in there, and your api_url setting should point to your API install without the trailing slash:

{
    "api_url": "http://example.com/wp-json",
    "client_key": "sDc51JgH2mFu",
    "client_secret": "LnUdIsyhPFnURkatekRIAUfYV7nmP4iF3AVxkS5PRHPXxgOW"
}

Replace http://example.com/ with the site you're running WP API on.

Step 3: Run it!

Open the console in your browser. You should see routes appear in the top left of your screen. (If these are missing, your api_url is set incorrectly.)

To make authenticated requests, simply hit the Auth button and follow the steps on-screen!
