-
-// Usage
-const api = new TaskManagerFetchAPI(

-    tmaData.nonce
-);
-
-// Get tasks
-api.getTasks({ status: 'pending' })
-    .then(tasks => console.log(tasks))
-    .catch(error => console.error(error));
-```

----
-
-## Testing the API
-
-### Using cURL
-
-```bash
-# Get all tasks
-curl -X GET https://example.com/wp-json/task-manager/v1/tasks
-
-# Get tasks with filters
-curl -X GET "https://example.com/wp-json/task-manager/v1/tasks?status=pending&per_page=5"
-
-# Get single task
-curl -X GET https://example.com/wp-json/task-manager/v1/tasks/1
-
-# Create task (requires authentication)
-curl -X POST https://example.com/wp-json/task-manager/v1/tasks \
-  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
-  -H "X-WP-Nonce: YOUR_NONCE" \
-  --cookie "wordpress_logged_in_HASH=YOUR_COOKIE" \
-  -d '{
-    "title": "New Task",
-    "description": "Task description",
-    "status": "pending",
-    "priority": 3
-  }'
-
-# Update task
-curl -X PUT https://example.com/wp-json/task-manager/v1/tasks/1 \
-  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
-  -H "X-WP-Nonce: YOUR_NONCE" \
-  --cookie "wordpress_logged_in_HASH=YOUR_COOKIE" \
-  -d '{
-    "status": "completed"
-  }'
-
-# Delete task
-curl -X DELETE https://example.com/wp-json/task-manager/v1/tasks/1 \
-  -H "X-WP-Nonce: YOUR_NONCE" \
-  --cookie "wordpress_logged_in_HASH=YOUR_COOKIE"
-```
-
-### Using Postman
-
-1. **Set up authentication**:
-   - Method: Cookie Authentication
-   - Add `X-WP-Nonce` header
-
-2. **Test endpoints**:
-   - GET `/wp-json/task-manager/v1/tasks`
-   - POST `/wp-json/task-manager/v1/tasks`
-   - PUT `/wp-json/task-manager/v1/tasks/{id}`
-   - DELETE `/wp-json/task-manager/v1/tasks/{id}`

-## Key Features Demonstrated
-
-### 1. **Complete CRUD Operations**
-- ✅ GET (list and single)
-- ✅ POST (create)
-- ✅ PUT (update)
-- ✅ DELETE (delete)
-
-### 2. **Authentication & Permissions**
-- ✅ Permission callbacks for each endpoint
-- ✅ User capability checks
-- ✅ Nonce verification
-
-### 3. **Validation**
-- ✅ Input validation
-- ✅ Schema validation
-- ✅ Error responses
-
-### 4. **Pagination**
-- ✅ Page and per_page parameters
-- ✅ Total count headers
-- ✅ Collection parameters
-
-### 5. **Error Handling**
-- ✅ WP_Error responses
-- ✅ Proper HTTP status codes
-- ✅ Descriptive error messages
-
-### 6. **JavaScript Integration**
-- ✅ wp.apiFetch client
-- ✅ Vanilla Fetch API client
-- ✅ Error handling in JavaScript
-
----
-
-## Best Practices Demonstrated
-
-1. **Use WP_REST_Controller** - Extends base controller class
-2. **Schema definition** - Proper schema with validation
-3. **Permission callbacks** - Security checks for each endpoint
-4. **Sanitization** - All input sanitized
-5. **Error handling** - Proper WP_Error usage
-6. **Pagination** - Collection endpoints support pagination
-7. **Versioning** - API namespace includes version (v1)
-8. **Documentation** - Clear docblocks and comments
-
----
-
-## Next Steps
-
-1. Add unit tests for API endpoints
-2. Implement caching for GET requests
-3. Add rate limiting
-4. Implement webhook notifications
-5. Add batch operations endpoint
-6. Create Swagger/OpenAPI documentation
-
+# Task Manager REST API Plugin Example
+
+## Overview

+
+## Testing the API
+
+### Using cURL
+
+```bash
+# Get all tasks
+curl -X GET https://example.com/wp-json/task-manager/v1/tasks
+
+# Get tasks with filters
+curl -X GET "https://example.com/wp-json/task-manager/v1/tasks?status=pending&per_page=5"
+
+# Get single task
+curl -X GET https://example.com/wp-json/task-manager/v1/tasks/1
+
+# Create task (requires authentication)
+curl -X POST https://example.com/wp-json/task-manager/v1/tasks \
+  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
+  -H "X-WP-Nonce: YOUR_NONCE" \
+  --cookie "wordpress_logged_in_HASH=YOUR_COOKIE" \
+  -d '{
+    "title": "New Task",
+    "description": "Task description",
+    "status": "pending",
+    "priority": 3
+  }'
+
+# Update task
+curl -X PUT https://example.com/wp-json/task-manager/v1/tasks/1 \
+  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
+  -H "X-WP-Nonce: YOUR_NONCE" \
+  --cookie "wordpress_logged_in_HASH=YOUR_COOKIE" \
+  -d '{
+    "status": "completed"
+  }'
+
+# Delete task
+curl -X DELETE https://example.com/wp-json/task-manager/v1/tasks/1 \
+  -H "X-WP-Nonce: YOUR_NONCE" \
+  --cookie "wordpress_logged_in_HASH=YOUR_COOKIE"
+```
+
+### Using Postman
+
+1. **Set up authentication**:
+   - Method: Cookie Authentication
+   - Add `X-WP-Nonce` header
+
+2. **Test endpoints**:
+   - GET `/wp-json/task-manager/v1/tasks`
+   - POST `/wp-json/task-manager/v1/tasks`
+   - PUT `/wp-json/task-manager/v1/tasks/{id}`
+   - DELETE `/wp-json/task-manager/v1/tasks/{id}`
+

+
+## Key Features Demonstrated
+
+### 1. **Complete CRUD Operations**
+- ✅ GET (list and single)
+- ✅ POST (create)
+- ✅ PUT (update)
+- ✅ DELETE (delete)
+
+### 2. **Authentication & Permissions**
+- ✅ Permission callbacks for each endpoint
+- ✅ User capability checks
+- ✅ Nonce verification
+
+### 3. **Validation**
+- ✅ Input validation
+- ✅ Schema validation
+- ✅ Error responses
+
+### 4. **Pagination**
+- ✅ Page and per_page parameters
+- ✅ Total count headers
+- ✅ Collection parameters
+
+### 5. **Error Handling**
+- ✅ WP_Error responses
+- ✅ Proper HTTP status codes
+- ✅ Descriptive error messages
+
+### 6. **JavaScript Integration**
+- ✅ wp.apiFetch client
+- ✅ Vanilla Fetch API client
+- ✅ Error handling in JavaScript
+
+---
+
+## Best Practices Demonstrated
+
+1. **Use WP_REST_Controller** - Extends base controller class
+2. **Schema definition** - Proper schema with validation
+3. **Permission callbacks** - Security checks for each endpoint
+4. **Sanitization** - All input sanitized
+5. **Error handling** - Proper WP_Error usage
+6. **Pagination** - Collection endpoints support pagination
+7. **Versioning** - API namespace includes version (v1)
+8. **Documentation** - Clear docblocks and comments
+
+---
+
+## Next Steps
+
+1. Add unit tests for API endpoints
+2. Implement caching for GET requests
+3. Add rate limiting
+4. Implement webhook notifications
+5. Add batch operations endpoint
+6. Create Swagger/OpenAPI documentation
+
