Calling a Zend_Rest_Server Service
To call a Zend_Rest_Server service, you must supply a
GET/POST method argument with a value that is the
method you wish to call. You can then follow that up with any number
of arguments using either the name of the argument (i.e. "who") or
using arg following by the numeric position of the
argument (i.e. "arg1").
Numeric index
Numeric arguments use a 1-based index.
To call sayHello from the example above, you can use either:
?method=sayHello&who=Davey&when=Day
or:
?method=sayHello&arg1=Davey&arg2=Day
Sending A Custom Status
When returning values, to return a custom status, you may return an
array with a status key.
Returning Custom Status
"An Error Occurred", 'status' => false);
}
$server = new Zend_Rest_Server();
$server->addFunction('sayHello');
$server->handle();

Returning Custom XML Responses
If you wish to return custom XML, simply return a
DOMDocument, DOMElement or
SimpleXMLElement object.

to the client.
