Hello,
I built my first module which stores data in its own tables using db_query(...).
Now, i'd like to manage thoses tables through a webservice which would be a part of my module but i'm wondering how to achieve it.
As it is my first module i'm not really familiar with the API so how could i integrate a uri in drupal site which would lead to a php5 web service and how could i get access to db_query() in that script ?
I thought about : http://localhost/drupal/sites/default/modules/myfirstmodule/service.php
Or maybe is there a special hook in modules that does not lead to a drupal page with theming etc. Until now i only could create blocks.
If anybody has hints, i would appreciate.
Thanks,
Eric

First Google result for "drupal web service" is:
http://drupal.org/project/Services

If you register a function in hook menu and the page does php print instead of returning $output, you will bypass the theming layer. I do this regularly to return XML data instead of a drupal themed page.
Does that answer your question?
