How to use RESTful webservice in drupal 8? - drupal-modules

I am working on building a platform which uses Drupal's web-service functionality to provide the content over any platform. With Drupal 6 & 7 it was all good with conventional HTTP web-service. But as in new release it has decided to take it on next level of web-service by using RESTfull web-service. My question is How can I customize this RESTfull web-service to make it responsive on my request from any other platform?

go to site configuration and there restful webservice there click on it.and select all list which you want.after go throw instruction on it..

what language should I use to integrate with SOAP/XML and REST/JSON APIs (IS IT LIKE COMMON XML FILE)

Hello guys (you can skip to summery) I found at some website an API, and I wanted to use it, but the website says that the API is using SOAP/XML and REST/JSON APIs to integrate with other website, so my question here can I use spring boot as an example to integrate with their API, or it most be in Angular and Node.js, because they said they built their demo project on it. However, I think I can replace Angular with react is that right, please correct me if I'm wrong. am I forced to use node or I can replace it with spring boot, since it is REST API and spring boot is?
Summery :
When I hear SOAP/XML and REST/JSON APIs can I use Spring boot to integrate with it, or any technology, or should I use node.js, because they said so?

Can Kentico 11 API be utilized in the same way Kentico Cloud is used?

We are currently utilizing Kentico 11 for our website. We just reupped our support for Kentico 11 so we don't have any current plans to make any moves.
However, I'm really impressed by the headless CMS approach that Kentico Cloud encourages. My question is, can Kentico 11 api be utilized in a way where I can use Kentico 11 as a purely Content Management System and build an Angular application that will utilize Kentico's built in API.
Or is the only way to do a headless CMS project (using Angular and Kentico) is to purchase a Kentico Cloud account?
In Kentico's Roadmap, you'll see they are moving towards an MVC first approach vs. Portal Engine first approach. That being said, you CAN simply use Kentico CMS/EMS as your content management system and simply have a second web app utilizing MVC to make calls to Kentico to get the data out and displayed properly.
You can check out the documentation for more on how to get started with this in v11.
There are some articles out there from some well known Kentico Developers/Agencies (you can search for "Kentico MVC" on troubles they have overcome with MVC and Kentico as well as approaches. Short story is you can do what you're asking without Kentico Cloud but Kentico Cloud would be a great addition if you needed multi-channel content delivery.
There is a great post here about the differences and some common questions between Kentico Cloud and Kentico EMS.

How to connect WIX template with 3rd party REST APIs?

I created a simple web site using WIX platform. (https://www.wix.com/). I have some simple forms. Like customer registration and package management. All the UI part is done. And I have a Node.JS server to manage customers and packages. API is 100% done.
Now I need to connect WIX template with my NOde.JS REST API. Is there any possible ways to do this ?
My Node Server is deployed on a Ubuntu server and I can access it anywhere.
Please help me on this.
Yes, now Wix has this thing called Wix Code platform, which enables you to dynamically control your UI components and bind it to data coming from the outside.
To answer your question, they have this fetch API which you can use to write code to fetch your own server and get the data from it. Here is a link Wix Code API - fetch
Anyway, this is their site, Wix Code, you may learn a lot more there. Also they have those tutorials and examples of many "how to..." and examples Wix Code Tutorials and Videos
Cheers!

Progressive web app with asp.net core 2.0 Razor Pages

I want to create a progressive web app with ASP.NET CORE 2.0 using Razor Pages preferably because I like the code behind architecture of Razor Pages.
Please recommend me a tutorial or docs or any course where I can begin to learn this. I already know ASP.NET CORE so I don't need to learn that, but actually I want to learn and create PWA but at server side I want to use ASP.NET CORE 2.0 and Razor Pages (if possible). And then I will be hosting them in Azure.
The courses I've searched so far on the web, all of them are with node.js or any other server side technology. Which is a problem because I don't want to use JS, except on the front end, where I don't have a choice.
According to your description, I assume that you could refer to the following tutorials for getting started with PWA using .NET Core:
Yeoman PWA Angular 4 & .NET Core
PWA-Asp.NetCore
Building Progressive Web Applications (PWA) with Visual Studio
This is a very common misconception...that the client-side is tightly coupled to the server-side. They are not.
Your ASP.NET application renders pages/html on demand, at run-time, on the server. The site will work with or without the client-side code, that is why it is progressive....
Your PWA/Service Worker code is only concerned with stuff in the browser. You need to think about it as a stateless concern on the client. The service worker can add a proxy layer to the client-side where you can cache and really perform the task ASP.NET or Node Or PHP, etc perform, just in the browser, before the network must be used.
My advice, to learn the concepts, is to create a static version of your site or a test site. Get comfortable with how to make a PWA and a simple caching service worker, then apply it to your ASP.NET site.
There is nothing in ASP.NET itself your service worker needs to know about, well short of your routes. And your routes are independent of ASP.NET.

Native apps, Web apps communicating with same application server

Hello guys i was learning web developments and have a simple question. If i built a e-commerce web page using node.js and ejs template engine and everything works fine. The next decision is to build a native app for the same e-commerce site either android or IOS. I want the native app to also communicate with the same application server designed in node.js. Do i have to redesign the application server?
My approach or thought:
Native app will have to consume data either xml or json. So i will have to change the business logic of my endpoints. And if i do it this way, i will also have to change the way the web ui interacts with the application server and it also has to consume json or xml response using ajax call. Is my thinking or approach on the right track? But if using node.js, should i avoid the template engines?
Yes, you have to redesign the application server logic by exposing API endpoints. As mobile apps (iOS/Android) will interact with the server using these API endpoints, via JSON. And this will affect your web page also, as everything thing now has to be done via AJAX calls.
Best practice is to built a single page web application using Angular or React.
That way both your mobile app and web app would behave almost the same.
