Json Bannertype

[billandr]

I have a need to reply with json data instead of HTML so that front-end on the site can format the information as necessary.  I've created the following files:

1. /plugins/bannerTypeJson/oxJson/genericJson.class.php

2. /plugins/bannerTypeJson/oxJson/genericJson.delivery.php

3. /plugins/etc/oxJson/oxJson.xml

4. /plugins/customBannerTypes.xml

5. /lib/OX/Extension/bannerTypeJson/bannerTypeJson.php

6/ /lib/OX/Extension/bannerTypeJson/bannerTypeJsonDelivery.php

 

In #5 above:

contentType = json

storageType = json

 

Modified config "allowedBanners": json=1

 

I see the plugin and clicking details shows me everything; but when adding a new banner - I don't see that type listed.

 

I've been looking through the code to see how/where that information is pulled from - but I can't quite seem to locate it.

 

any ideas?

ahh - ok - had to also modify banner-edit to add it to the list; I thought this was something that would dynamically be added; but because I added a new type (json) instead of an HTML type - it didn't show up.

Hi, I am trying to return json banners as well, any chance you could share your plugin on a git repo?

+1 for this, I'm working with XML-RPC banners now but JSON would have much, much less overhead on the server.
