installed jwt plugin

install and enable WordPress plugin:

wordpress server enable jwt authorization

RewriteCond %{HTTP:Authorization} ^(.*)
RewriteRule ^(.*) - [E=HTTP_AUTHORIZATION:%1]
  1. edit wp-config.php

add:

define('JWT_AUTH_SECRET_KEY', 'anyValueIsOk');
  • anyValueIsOk: change to yours, any value is OK
    • just do NOT tell other, ^_^
  • Remember service php-fpm restart after edit php file

POST /wp-json/jwt-auth/v1/token to generate jwt token

call REST api to generate jwt token

    # category nameList=['Mac'] -> taxonomyIdList=[1374]

if tagNameList:
    # ['切换', 'GPU', 'pmset', '显卡模式']
    tagIdList = self.getTaxonomyIdList(tagNameList, taxonomy="post_tag")
    # post_tag nameList=['切换', 'GPU', 'pmset', '显卡模式'] -> taxonomyIdList=[1367, 13224, 13225, 13226]

postDict = {
    "title": title, # '【记录】Mac中用pmset设置GPU显卡切换模式'
    "content": content, # '<div>\n  折腾：\n </div>\n <div>\n  【已解决】Mac Pro 2018款发热量大很烫非常烫\n </div>\n <div>\n  期间，...performance graphic cards\n    </li>\n   </ul>\n  </ul>\n </ul>\n <div>\n  <br/>\n </div>'
