Calling a remote resource
The connection infrastructure in zero.core
provides a simple way to make REST-style requests to resources using a variety of protocols.
For the application developer
The Connection API is used to send requests to resources and work with their response. You can use a variety of protocols,
including HTTP, to work with remote resources and SMTP to send e-mails.
- Using the Connection API
- Working with HTTP or HTTPS services
- Sending an e-mail using EmailConnection
The activities of the zero.assemble.flow component use the connection infrastructure
to work with HTTP and HTTPS services and send e-mails.
PHP developers can also take advantage of the connection infrastructure, by
using the zero.php.connection component.
For the application builder
The destinations addressed by the application using the Connection API can be configured without modification to
the application code through the specification of protocol configuration and connection handlers in zero.config.
For advanced scenarios
The connection infrastructure includes interfaces to enable the implementation of new connection handlers and protocol transports.
