Now you have no need to make additional requests to get taxonomy info (term_id, name, slug, term_group, term_taxonomy_id, taxonomy, description, parent, count, filter) from their id that is available in the default json response.
Now all available taxonomy data is available in ‘pure_taxonomies’ field from your json response. It works for all custom added taxonomies, and for custom post types.
For example in ‘wp-json/wp/v2/posts’ you can find default fields ‘categories’, ‘tags’ and name of custom added taxonomies that contain only its id. With this plugin you can also find new ‘pure_taxonomies’ field that include all available ‘categories’, ‘tags’ and custom taxonomies data.
Before: 
 { 
 … 
 categories: [ 
 3 
 ], 
 tags: [ 
 2 
 ], 
 custom_taxonomy_name: [ 
 1 
 ] 
 … 
 }
After: 
 { 
 … 
 pure_taxonomies: { 
 categories: [ 
 { 
 term_id: 3, 
 name: “First category”, 
 slug: “first-category”, 
 term_group: 0, 
 term_taxonomy_id: 3, 
 taxonomy: “category”, 
 description: “”, 
 parent: 0, 
 count: 3, 
 filter: “raw”, 
 cat_ID: 3, 
 category_count: 3, 
 category_description: “”, 
 cat_name: “First category”, 
 category_nicename: “first-category”, 
 category_parent: 0 
 } 
 ], 
 tags: [ 
 { 
 term_id: 2, 
 name: “First tag”, 
 slug: “first-tag”, 
 term_group: 0, 
 term_taxonomy_id: 2, 
 taxonomy: “post_tag”, 
 description: “”, 
 parent: 0, 
 count: 2, 
 filter: “raw” 
 } 
 ], 
 custom_taxonomy_name: [ 
 { 
 term_id: 1, 
 name: “Custom Taxonomy Name”, 
 slug: “custom-taxonomy-name”, 
 term_group: 0, 
 term_taxonomy_id: 1, 
 taxonomy: “custom_taxonomy_name”, 
 description: “”, 
 parent: 0, 
 count: 1, 
 filter: “raw” 
 } 
 ] 
 } 
 … 
 }

WP REST API – Pure Taxonomies

Works Perfectly

Very useful to reduce number of requests



This plugin include all available taxonomy attributes into the WordPress REST API (v2) without additional API requests.

This plugin extends the <a href="https://wordpress.org/plugins/json-rest-api/" rel="ugc">WordPress JSON REST API</a> with new routes for WordPress registered menus
The new routes available will be:
<ul>
<li><code>/menus</code> list of every registered menu.</li>
<li><code>/menus/<id></code> data for a specific menu.</li>
<li><code>/menu-locations</code> list of all registered theme locations.</li>
<li><code>/menu-locations/<location></code> data for menu in specified menu in theme location.</li>
</ul>
Currently, the <code>menu-locations/<location></code> route for individual menus will return a tree with full menu hierarchy, with correct menu item order and listing children for each menu item. The <code>menus/<id></code> route will output menu details and a flat array of menu items. Item order or if each item has a parent will be indicated in each item attributes, but this route won’t output items as a tree.
You can alter the data arrangement of each individual menu items and children using the filter hook <code>json_menus_format_menu_item</code>.
An important note on WP API V2:
In V1 the routes are located by default at <code>wp-json/menus/</code> etc.
In V2 the routes by default are at <code>wp-json/wp-api-menus/v2/</code> (e.g. <code>wp-json/wp-api-menus/v2/menus/</code>, etc.) since V2 encourages prefixing and version namespacing.
