Addition of Examples & Use Cases

[royboy789]

Create a new section (with nav) sorted by language / framework. Each page (language/framework) should have at minimum the following examples:

• GET - posts, posts with filter, custom post type
• POST - creating a new post
• UPDATE - editing a post
• DELETE - deleting a post

Will start with:

• PHP (WordPress focused)
• jQuery
• AngularJS
• BackboneJS
• ReactJS

If you have examples, please link me to articles / themes / plugins with code

Create Simple example one every Reference page (as needed) with further detailed in own page with link.

Starting to get some examples in, and checking formatting or if we want to go tabbed interface - https://github.com/WP-API/docs-v2/pull/51

I think it would be important to have a generic example of calling arguments, such as:

http://demo.wp-api.org/wp-json/wp/v2/posts/?filter[ARG_NAME]=ARG_OPTION

This could be a simple line underneath the 'Arguments' heading.

Additionally, this same type of documentation could be applied to several other sections, such as Schema. Right now, all of these areas seem a little vague in their actual usage in an api call.

I hope this is the proper place to post this idea. If there is a better protocol, let me know!

@royboy789 , I have a demo plugin that shows how to do an upload to the media library from the front-end (user must be logged in and have the upload_files capability). The plugin is tested with WP-API Version 2.0-beta13

The plugin is available at my site: https://soderlind.no/dropzonejs-wordpress-rest-api/

btw, here a similar demo that creates a custom endpoint: https://soderlind.no/dropzonejs-wordpress-rest-api-with-custom-endpoint/
