CData: Connecting to WordPress from Delphi

In this episode of my „Delphi Quick Thoughts“ series, I am demonstrating how to connect to a WordPress site from Delphi. I am using CData’s WordPress Enterprise connector for that.

CData has more than one hundred „Enterprise Connectors“ that connect to almost every data source, that you can imagine: SAP, Twillio, WordPress, ActiveDirectory, SalesForce – just to name a few. These Connectors are implemented as FireDAC drivers. In other words, you can talk to all of these data sources by using SQL Queries and/or Stored Procedures, you don’t have to learn new syntaxes and components but just check the available schema and methods.

For WordPress, for example, check the docs here:

You can download the sources that I used in the video here.
Note: I left the app id and secret in the sources for your references but changed them on my server, so the app won’t be able to connect to my server anymore. You will need your own WordPress instance that is.
