I am stucked at one point in which I need to get JSON response if I pass .json behind the URL as below Example:

http://www.urlabc.com/home.json

The same way I need to get XML data like,

You can achieve it by using $_SERVER

 $actual_link = "http://$_SERVER[HTTP_HOST]$_SERVER[REQUEST_URI]";

This will return you actual path i.e http://www.urlabc.com/home.json

ANd by using pathinfo You get the extension of url as

echo $ext = pathinfo($actual_link, PATHINFO_EXTENSION);

if($ext=="json")
{
  // json code
}

if($ext=="xml")
{
  // xml code
}

I think you should use pass "json" as query parameter
e.g.[http://www.example.com?type=json]

Also use Codeigniter Rest Server Click here
