WP Simple Gutenberg Block Greeting Plugin Sending Input Message to any OAuth2 Layer based REST API

A simple wordpress gutenberg input block plugin that allows to send the message typed to any REST API with a OAuth2 Layer

Requirements

• WP Gutenberg Editor
• An available REST API Endpoint based on OAuth2.0 layer with grant type clients_credentials. If you don't have an available REST API Endpoint, you may install this WP Rest API Plugin With OAuth2 Layer plugin on a seperate Wordpress Installation.

Installation

• Clone/Insert these files in the WordPress Installation Plugin Directory in a folder (and name/rename it maybe ibl-gutenberg-greeter)
• Edit the variables in crud.js (located at src >> crud.js) accordingly :

const LOGIN_ENDPOINT_URL = 'https://ibleducation-instance1.local/wp-json/greetingbot/v1/login'
const SEND_GREETING_ENDPOINT_URL = 'https://ibleducation-instance1.local/wp-json/greetingbot/v1/send'
const GRANT_TYPE = 'client_credentials'
const CLIENT_ID = 'michaeloncode'
const CLIENT_SECRET = 'michaeloncode'

• Run on your terminal on the current plugin folder :

$ npm install
$ npm run build

• Once finished, you can then activate the plugin on the Wordpress Installation

Usage

• Open a gutenberg editor and search for these keywords

{
    "greeting"
    "ibleducation"
}

• You should be able to identify the new Gutenberg Block and any message you type in the block would be sent as a request to your OAuth2 based REST API Endpoint using this request body format (example) :

{
    "greeting":"Hello World!"
}

Enjoy !
