This plugin modifies the default REST API for a content management system, removing extraneous data fields to deliver cleaner, more efficient responses. It is designed for developers building front-end applications, headless sites, or mobile apps who need to optimize data payloads for speed and simplicity.
Compact and Detailed Endpoints: The plugin adds two new query parameters (_compact and _detailed) to API requests. The compact endpoint returns minimal data like ID, title, link, date, and a featured image, ideal for listing pages. The detailed endpoint includes additional fields such as author, full content, and categories, suitable for single-page views.
Reduced Payload Size: By stripping out unused fields from the default API response, it decreases the amount of data transferred. This can lead to faster page loads and lower bandwidth usage, especially beneficial for list views with many items.
Focused Data for Posts and Users: Currently, the filtering functionality is applied specifically to post and user endpoints. This provides targeted optimization for common content types without modifying the entire API structure.
Simple Implementation: After installation, optimization is activated by appending ?_compact or ?_detailed as a GET parameter to the relevant API URL. No complex configuration is required.
Automatic Image Handling: For posts, the plugin automatically extracts and includes the URL of the first featured image in the response under an 'image' field, simplifying media access for front-end display.
