[Plugin: JSON API] How can i create post with attachments?

Hi,
I am also concerned by his issue.
Does anybody get an idea/snippet ?

Same here… I’v tried passing the attachment id, attachment object, then the attachment object as an array for the &attachment variable unfortunately nothing seems to stick. What gives?

Hi guys, just wanted to contribute a quick fix solution for what I was trying to achieve.

I added the following code on line 121 of json-api/models/post.php

if (isset($values['media'])) {
        foreach($values['media'] as $att){
          $attachment_id = wp_insert_attachment(get_post($att), false, $this->id);
          $this->attachments[] = new JSON_API_Attachment($attachment_id);
        }
    }

This will allow you to pass an array of attachment id’s to the &media variable and it will link them to the new post.

I also wrote a simple custom controller called attachments/get_attachments to get unattached files as well. If you need to view unattached files just feed it a &parent=0, to see all files use &parent=null.

json-api/controllers/attachments.php

<?php
/*
Controller name: Attachments
Controller description: Basic introspection methods for fetching attachments
*/

class JSON_API_Attachments_Controller{
    public function get_attachments(){
        global $json_api;

        if($json_api->query->parent !== "null")
            $parent = (integer) $json_api->query->parent;
        else
            $parent = null;    

        return $json_api->introspector->get_attachments($parent);

    }
}

?>

I hope this helps.
