I’m looking into writing an PHP REST API that would allow registered users interact with the web service from third party applications.

What I need the API to be able to do is:

  • provide support for secure user authentication
  • allow registered users to interact with the service from 3rd party applications
  • this applications should be registered and approved on the system beforehand (similar to twitter)

I was wondering what would be a good framework or library to start from that provides a good basis for such a service.

    Sounds like an OAuthProvider would do what you describe.
    Here are some tutorials on how to make an OAuthProvider using PHP’s OAuth module.
