Base class for REST API controllers defined inside the 'src' directory.
Besides implementing the abstract methods, derived classes must be registered in the dependency injection container with the 'share_with_implements_tags' method inside a service provider that inherits from 'AbstractInterfaceServiceProvider'. This ensures that 'register_routes' is invoked.
Derived classes must also contain this line: use Automattic\WooCommerce\Internal\Traits\AccessiblePrivateMethods;
Minimal controller example:
class FoobarsController extends RestApiControllerBase {
use Automattic\WooCommerce\Internal\Traits\AccessiblePrivateMethods;
protected function get_rest_api_namespace(): string { return 'foobars'; }
public function register_routes() { register_rest_route(
abstract class RestApiControllerBase implements RegisterHooksInterface {
use AccessiblePrivateMethods;
