从移动应用程序与Wordpress网站API进行交互

I am developing an app that is presented with a login screen containing the usual username and password text inputs.

When pressing the Login button the code is supposed to make a HTTP Web Request to the Wordpress website as an attempt to log in.

I have had a look at the WP plugins called JSON API and JSON API USER but the documentation is very limited.

How would I go about to properly log in to the Wordpress website as well as retrieving user information from databases?

NOTE: I'm developing in Xamarin but any code examples from any language is fine, as I could easily port the code.

To connect to the Wordpress website's system and interact with it, you need to indeed make a few API calls.

Using the plugins JSON API and JSON API USER is the easiest way to do so.

1. Install JSON API and JSON API USER plugins from the website control panel
2. Make a Web Requests, one after another, to get nonce and get authorization cookie using the the following calls:

Nonce: http://www.mywordpresswebsite.com/api/get_nonce/?controller=user&method=generate_auth_cookie&insecure=cool

and

Auth Cookie: http://www.mywordpresswebsite.com/api/user/generate_auth_cookie/?username=USERNAME_HERE&password=PASSWORD_HERE&insecure=cool

NOTE:

At the end of the requests you can see the parameter insecure=cool.

This is used for unsecured communication.
