It will make use of CakePHP 2.X as a RESTfull interface

It will also make use of Extjs4 to create a Webtop (Desktop running in the browser)

We will start with a device and conquer approach. The following sections will discuss how to do this approach.

Token authentication

Description

RESTfull services are suppose to be stateless.

In order to do this in CakePHP while maintaining a secure API we will assign a token to each user and use this token as the username with basic authentication when doing RESTfull requests to CakePHP
