Can I use this for mobile app development?

Yes, it is designed to create the backends necessary for the Moodle Mobile app and other external REST consumers by defining functions in services.php.

What is the standard structure for a Moodle external API?

Moodle APIs require three static methods: execute_parameters() for inputs, execute() for business logic, and execute_returns() for the output structure.

How does this skill handle security in Moodle?

It enforces Moodle's native security layer, including validate_context() to check context levels and require_capability() to verify user permissions before execution.

How are input parameters validated?

Parameters are validated using the external_function_parameters class and Moodle's PARAM_* constants (like PARAM_INT or PARAM_TEXT) within the execute_parameters method.

소개

This skill provides a comprehensive framework for developing Moodle external APIs following the platform's strict three-method architectural pattern. It guides developers through implementing the mandatory structure—execute_parameters, execute, and execute_returns—ensuring robust security via context validation and capability checks. By enforcing Moodle coding standards, it simplifies the process of building mobile backends, AJAX endpoints, and external system integrations while managing complex database operations and error logging.
