WP EDD Addons API &mdash; WordPress Plugins

WP EDD Addons API

Provides the API required to expose EDD products marked as add-ons through the REST API.

This is a plugin built specifically for developers that use Easy Digital Downloads to sell add-ons for freemium WordPress plugins.

It's often the case that freemium plugins have an "add-ons" page within the wp-admin panel that shows a list of all add-ons available for a plugin. In most cases the list is retrieved from an RSS or json feed.

WP EDD Addons API provides an easy way to mark EDD products as "add-ons" and exposes all of them through a new route within the WordPress REST API without the need to manually code the feed.

Once installed, all products marked as add-ons are available through the wp-json/wp/v2/edd-addons route.

Example:

http://example.com/wp-json/wp/v2/edd-addons

Some info for developers

All add-ons are cached into the wp_edd_addons_api_cached transient. The transient is deleted each time a download is updated or created.
You can modify the query $args for the REST API through the filter wp_edd_addons_api_query.
I've also built an example of class to build the add-ons page within a plugin, you can find it here https://github.com/alessandrotesoro/wp-edd-addons-page
