Use in headless setup about komments HOT 2 CLOSED

Hey Juan,

thank you for the kind words :)

Yes, you can do that. The plugin is already using JavaScript for sending comments to kirby, the regular form action is a fallback only.

There is a POST endpoint available under /komments/send which takes the form values as body. So you can steal the form from the snippet in snippets/kommentform.php. And have a look at the JS file in assets/komments.js. Be aware that there are two hidden fields which are used for spam protection, so don't forget to add them, even if they aren't visible.

There is currently no api endpoint for getting the comment list, but I guess you'll do that on build time. The comments are stored in a structured field. I would recommend to use $komments = $kommentUtils->parseKomments($page->kommentsInbox()); as you can see in snippets/webmention-splitted.php.

It may be that I will switch from structured field to sqlite in the future, so using $kommentUtils->parseKomments(); will ensure that your comments show up even if their storage might be changed.

Let me know if there are any problems or questions.
