Jifty::Plugin::REST - Add REST web services to your app
A RESTful web services API for your Jifty app.
Add the following to your site_config.yml
framework: Plugins: - REST: {}
See the URL /=/help in your Jifty app for more information about how to access the REST resources.
The REST interface calls a method named jifty_serialize_format on records and collections to downgrade them to simple data structures. By default, this just lists the attributes specified with "column". If you want to include calculated values in your REST interface, you can do so by overriding jifty_serialize_format.
jifty_serialize_format
