I have built some REST API in Lumen micro framework and it's working fine. Now I want to integrate Swagger editor into it so the API will be well documented on future use. Has anyone done this?
I am trying to integrate Cybersource Payment for Hosted Checkout in our Expo React Native app.
Our e-commerce web application is build on Wordpress and it uses it's custom plugin provided by Cybersource.
So, a little help and guide would be appreciated, I just need to know how it's gonna be implemented.
Thanks.
I've published a native android application which uses a services with response in JSON format. Now, I want to develop a Hybrid application using IBM Mobile first platform. I want to use the same service here in this case also. I'm not able to findout the mechanism to do so. Anyone please suggest me some solution.
I assume that you intend to build your hybrid app using HTML, CSS and JavaScript.
You could directly call the service using standard JavaScript
XMLHttpRequest(serviceUrl)
But you probably will use some framework such as AngularJS - such frameworks really do pay off in the long run - and in which case you have nice APIs
$http.get(serviceUrl).then(doSomeWork);
However this raw JavaScript approach does not exploit the MobileFirst programming model. We tend to find that using a Mobile Gateway architectural pattern, where MobileFirst adapters act as the gateway, pays off as your application becomes more complex. The adapters provide a security model and can implement aggregation and filtering so that precious mobile bandwidth is used more efficiently.
Hence we recommend that you build adapters, as described in the links given by Idan, and then you use the MobileFirst API to call the adapters:
WL.Client.invokeProcedure( ... );
Starting MobileFirst Platform Foundation 7.0, both the JS framework (for Hybrid apps) and the Native SDK (for iOS and Android) provide REST support. You can accomplish this using either JavaScript adapters or Java adapters.
Read the following tutorials explaining how to use MFP adapters:
Server-side development
If you're interested in Java adapters as well, take a look at these videos as well:

We are exploring IBM Mobilefirst capabilities with a mapping application. We are using Esri ArcGIS Mapping service.
Where can I find the available resources or sample tutorial to use Esri ArcGIS with IBM MobileFirst hybrid applications?
Not every available tool out there has guides for IBM Worklight/MobileFirst.
It looks like Esri ArcgGIS has a developer website.
You should start there: https://developers.arcgis.com/en/sign-up/?origin=developer
Read how to integrate it into applications.
If there are SDKs then you will need to integrate those like you would any other SDK - that is outside of the Worklight/MFP scope (the integration).
I would assume that if it an SDK, you could then add a Cordova plug-in that would allow you to access that SDK from your app, or even better you could use the Send Action feature to bridge between Web and Native and vice versa.

Going through the IBM Worklight product documentation,the product looks great for building hybrid or native applications. However for building mobile web (with responsive web design) what are the specific advantages one can get from worklight?
For (the) Mobile Web (environment), I don't think that at this time there is much left.
However, you do still:
get to use Worklight Adapters and its extensive integration abilities, which do make it easier to connect to various backends
use Cordova to access some device native capabilities
use the WL Client JavaScript API
