I am trying to create one restful api in Codeigniter
framework. I need to pass some data to api through POST method so I am trying to retrieve the post data in api but I m getting it blank.
I am passing latitude and longitudes like
{
"lat1" : "19.306506",
"long1" : "72.848110",
"lat2" : "19.288461",
"long2" : "72.860041"
}
from postman.
And trying to retrieve it two ways
class distance_calculator extends REST_Controller
{
function distance_calculator()
{
parent::__construct();
$this->load->model('mdl_cart_web');
}
function get_distance_post()
{
$lat1 = $this->input->post('lat1'); // 1st way
$long1 = $_POST['long1']; // 2nd way
$this->response($lat1.$long1, 200);
}
}
Both aren't working, I got empty string in response. I am a beginner with codeigniter please help. Thank you.
