Hi,

Is it possible to make restful services with kohana 3 , i reviewed the source and found an abstract class Kohana_Controller_REST, how to use it ? If someone can post a snippet with routing as Example code, it will be very appreciated.

Also, the lack of documentation on KO3 is making me crazy, if someone knows a well documented, fast and proven PHP framework to use with an 100% javascript Frontend, just let me know, but i would like to stick with Kohana because of the powerful ORM lib.

Thanks.

I have been very happy using CodeIgniter REST Server, which is an extension to the CodeIgniter framework. One of the nice things about CI is the excellent documentation when compared to Kohana. Then again, Kohana is an "improved" fork of CI; for example, CI does not have an out-of-the-box ORM library.

CI seems to be nice, but it is written in php4 ? i would like to stick with kohana , but i will try CI, thanks for your suggestion.

Unfortunately it supports both PHP 4 and 5, so the code is not as clean as it could be. On the other hand, CI has great docs and a company behind it. So its really up to you. If you want "bleeding-edge" go with Kohaha, if you want something more... "established" (for lack of a better word) go with CI.
