Are there any hooks to alter the Services modules output. For eg : If I get a result like this for a file object. 

{
  "fid": "132",
  "uri": "public:\/\/512dab4918036.jpg",
  "filename": "512dab4918036.jpg",
  "filemime": "image\/jpeg",
  "uid": "1",
  "status": 1,
  "timestamp": 1361947464,
  "filesize": 2521,
}

I want to limit it for users with certain roles.

I am looking for this as I have made many services resource manually so I don't want to edit them all and simply use the output alter hook to do something.

Is it possible ?

  • What exactly do you want to do ? Remove some of the fields in the file object ? – drcelus Feb 27 '13 at 13:45
  • @drcelus no i want to deliver a default output if user dont met certain criteria. – niksmac Feb 27 '13 at 14:13

The available hooks for Services are documented in the api docs for services

You probably want hook_services_request_postprocess_alter($controller, $args, $result); which allows you to change the array of $result any way you want.

  • may i know how to use "hook_services_request_postprocess_alter" .I have field called 'body' in $result ,I want to wrap it with CDATA.Any idea how to do it? &$result[0]->body is my variable – rks Mar 21 '16 at 11:31
  • I assume you mean you don't know how to implement a hook? If you have a module named mymodule, you would implement a function called mymodule_services_request_postprocess_alter() with the arguments described above. More on Drupal's (pretty weird) hook system is at drupal.org/node/292 – rfay Mar 23 '16 at 14:39
