REST API output does not include complex types #232
Description
What I expected
On the 3.2.0-beta1 branch, I would expect the API to return the serialized meta values for posts, arrays of posts and arrays created with the repeater field.
What happened instead
The meta values and repeater fields come back as "post". Example JSON:
[{
"meta": {
"home_testimonials": "post", // Relationship
"home_hero_title": "Welcome",
"home_hero_image": {
"width": 800,
"height": 1000,
"file": "2017\/05\/nfafn7r4.jpg",
"sizes": {
"thumbnail": {
"file": "nfafn7r4-150x150.jpg",
"width": 150,
"height": 150,
"mime-type": "image\/jpeg",
"url": "http:\/\/....\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/05\/nfafn7r4-150x150.jpg"
},
"medium": {
"file": "nfafn7r4-240x300.jpg",
"width": 240,
"height": 300,
"mime-type": "image\/jpeg",
"url": "http:\/\/....\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/05\/nfafn7r4-240x300.jpg"
},
"medium_large": {
"file": "nfafn7r4-768x960.jpg",
"width": 768,
"height": 960,
"mime-type": "image\/jpeg",
"url": "http:\/\/....\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/05\/nfafn7r4-768x960.jpg"
}
},
"image_meta": {
"aperture": "0",
"credit": "",
"camera": "",
"caption": "",
"created_timestamp": "0",
"copyright": "",
"focal_length": "0",
"iso": "0",
"shutter_speed": "0",
"title": "",
"orientation": "0",
"keywords": []
},
"alt": "",
"caption": "",
"description": "",
"id": 70,
"is_image": true,
"title": "nfafn7r4",
"url": "http:\/\/....\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/05\/nfafn7r4.jpg"
},
"home_videos": "post", // Relationship
"home_infographics": "post", // Repeater Field
"home_tips": "post" // Relationship
},
}]If I create a hook for rest_api_init I can get the values to be output in the response:
add_action( 'rest_api_init', 'create_api_posts_meta_field' );
function create_api_posts_meta_field() {
register_rest_field( 'page', 'meta', array(
'get_callback' => function ( $data ) {
$meta = get_post_meta($data['id'], '', true);
$ret = [];
foreach ($meta as $key => $value) {
if (substr($k,0,1) != "_") {
$ret[$key] = papi_get_field($data['id'], $key);
}
}
return $ret;
},
));
}However, this will not include the meta value of included posts.
Steps to reproduce
Create a custom page type that uses relationships or repeater fields
