WP-API JSON Feed

Implements a JSON feed following the version 1 spec by means of a REST API endpoint.

Features

• Adds JSON feeds following the official version 1 spec.
• Places a link tag to the posts feed inside the HTML head tag.
• Adds a new namespace feed/v1 to the REST API.
• Allows adding individual endpoints per post type, simply by specifying an additional argument when registering the post type. By default a feed is only added for regular posts (posts of the post post type).
• Uses a proper REST API controller including schema for the endpoints.
• Contains several filters to modify the feed responses as necessary.

Installation and Setup

You can download the latest version from the WordPress plugin repository or directly from your WordPress backend.

Once the plugin is activated, it will work out of the box and provide a JSON feed for posts. If you want to provide JSON feeds for further post types, you need to specify an additional argument show_json_feed when registering the post type, and set it to a boolean true. You may also specify a json_feed_base argument being a string identifier that should be used in the feed URL. If no string identifier is provided, the post type slug will be used.
