It was the second time that I attended the Magento Imagine. Last year the conference was characterized by the motto „We are Magento“. This year the word „E-Commerce Platform“ stays in my mind.

Use Swagger to generate a full functional Magento API Client

Magento 2 comes with a nice swagger schema which describes the Webapi. The Magento guys were very clever to choose swagger. It not only comes with a schema, but moreover it is a complete interactive API client as well. A swagger schema is a JSON document to formalize the REST API. Formalized documents have the big advantage that you can process the data with a machine. One idea I had was to create a PHP API for the Magento 2 API. Fortunately the swagger…

If you have more than one frontend server running in your business, it’s needed to load balance the traffic between the nodes. In this case we have a new instance between the browser and the web-server. Often it’s a system like HAProxy or Varnish. If the load balancer or proxy receives a request from a browser, it forwards it to backend server in the internal network.

The Magento 2 webapi is very useful to publish entities to the world. One big advantages of the new webapi is the automatic generation of a swagger schema for RESTful API.

Any generated WSDL file contains a XSD with all the types used in the webservices. In…
