Thanks for the comments Erik! I would modify the article however wordpress is goofing up and destroying my code blocks so I don’t want to corrupt the article further!

Point 5 did not escape properly above… let’s try again:

5. As steven mentioned, you will need an application/views/scripts/rpc/service.phtml file as follows:
echo $this->data;
?>

Thankyou, great article, helped me get JSON RPC up and running w/ only basic knowledge of Dojo and ZF.

Few notes for other newbies trying this:

1. You can just download development release of ZF (currently 1.6.0 RC 1) and copy Json directory to the latest release (1.5.3) instead of setting up SVN.
2. Watch out for the non-standard quotes when copying and pasting code from this article.
3. The class Nickel_RPC_Book should go in the library/Nickel/RPC/Book.php file, not the library/Nickel/Model/Book.php file as stated in the article.
4. The JS call:
dojo.addOnLoad(function(){
nickel.rpc.book.simpleEcho().addCallback(function(msg){
alert(msg); //Alert: Hello World
});
is missing a second });.
5. As steven mentioned, you will need an application/views/scripts/rpc/service.phtml file as follows:
data;
?>
6. The Nickel_Model_Book class is not provided in the article.

OK – nevermind. I figured it out: echo $this->data;

Hi, great article. I’m trying to do this on my local machine. One question though: what’s in the service file rendered in /application/default/controllers/RpcController.php ?
