Requirements
For authentication and usage of administrator level REST APIs, you need to use either of the two popular authentication plugins in your WordPress site:
- Application Passwords
- JWT Authentication for WP REST API (recommended)
Getting Started
1. Import library
First:
Find your pubspec.yaml in the root of your project and add flutter_wordpress: ^0.2.0 under dependencies:
Second:
import 'package:flutter_wordpress/flutter_wordpress.dart' as wp;
2. Instantiate WordPress class
wp.WordPress wordPress;
// adminName and adminKey is needed only for admin level APIs
wordPress = wp.WordPress(
baseUrl: 'http://localhost',
authenticator: wp.WordPressAuthenticator.JWT,
adminName: '',
adminKey: '',
);
3. Authenticate User
Future<wp.User> response = wordPress.authenticateUser(
username: 'ChiefEditor',
password: 'chiefeditor@123',
);
response.then((user) {
createPost(user);
}).catchError((err) {
print('Failed to fetch user: $err');
});
4. Fetch Posts
Future<List<wp.Post>> posts = wordPress.fetchPosts(
postParams: wp.ParamsPostList(
context: wp.WordPressContext.view,
pageNum: 1,
perPage: 20,
order: wp.Order.desc,
orderBy: wp.PostOrderBy.date,
),
fetchAuthor: true,
fetchFeaturedMedia: true,
fetchComments: true,
postType: 'post'
);
5. Fetch Users
Future<List<wp.User>> users = wordPress.fetchUsers(
params: wp.ParamsUserList(
context: wp.WordPressContext.view,
pageNum: 1,
perPage: 30,
order: wp.Order.asc,
orderBy: wp.UsersOrderBy.name,
roles: ['subscriber'],
),
);
6. Fetch Comments
Future<List<wp.Comment>> comments = wordPress.fetchComments(
params: wp.ParamsCommentList(
context: wp.WordPressContext.view,
pageNum: 1,
perPage: 30,
includePostIDs: [1],
),
);
7. Create User
Future<void> createUser({@required String email, @required String username, @required String password, @required List<String> roles}) async {
await widget.wordPress.createUser(
user: wp.User(
email: email,
password: password,
username: username,
roles: roles
)
).then((p) {
print('User created successfully ${p}');
}).catchError((err) {
print('Failed to create user: $err');
});
}
8. Create Post
void createPost({@required wp.User user}) {
final post = widget.wordPress.createPost(
post: new wp.Post(
title: 'First post as a Chief Editor',
content: 'Blah! blah! blah!',
excerpt: 'Discussion about blah!',
authorID: user.id,
commentStatus: wp.PostCommentStatus.open,
pingStatus: wp.PostPingStatus.closed,
status: wp.PostPageStatus.publish,
format: wp.PostFormat.standard,
sticky: true,
),
);
post.then((p) {

}).catchError((err) {
print('Failed to create post: $err');
});
}
9. create Comment
void createComment({@required int userId, @required int postId}) {
final comment = widget.wordPress.createComment(

comment.then((c) {
print('Comment successfully posted with ID: ${c.id}');
}).catchError((err) {
print('Failed to comment: $err');
});
}
10. Update Comment
Future<void> updateComment({@required int id, @required int postId, @required wp.User user}) async {
await widget.wordPress.updateComment(
comment: new wp.Comment(

});
}
11. Update Post
