Hello,

I have some plugins I’ve built for my site that use the react APIs for gutenberg.

One of the things I want to do is create a multi-checkbox control for selecting roles associated with a post, then store that in a custom meta field.

The checkbox control and meta field part I know how to do.

What I can’t quite figure out, is how to get the roles from wordpress via JavaScript.

I’m guessing it’s through the @core/data package somehow, but I’m not sure.

Any help would be awesome, thank you!

Nevermind. I just created a rest API.

If anyone is curious:


namespace MyPlugin\REST;

/**
 * REST endpoint for wordpress roles.
 */
class RolesController extends \WP_REST_Controller
{
    /**
     * Create a new instance of the class.
     */
    public function __construct()
    {
        $this->namespace     = 'myplugin/v1';
        $this->resource_name = 'roles';

        register_rest_route(
            $this->namespace,
            '/' . $this->resource_name,
            array(
                array(
                    'methods'   => \WP_Rest_Server::READABLE,
                    'callback'  => array( $this, 'getItems'),
                    'permission_callback' => function () {
                        return true;
                    }
                )
            )
        );
    }

    /**
     * Get a list of roles from the collection.
     *
     * @param WP_REST_Request $request Full data about the request.
     * @return WP_Error|WP_REST_Response
     */
    public function getItems($request)
    {
        $role_list = wp_roles();

        // Return the roles in a successful response
        $response = new \WP_REST_Response($role_list->role_names, 200);

        return $response;
    }
