Submit xml to GSA with PHP / foreach loop - php

Question

Trying to submit to GSA (google search applicance). Works fine for 1 xml file. But im trying to loop through all files in a directory and submit to the gsa with a loop but cannot get it working.
<?php
$target_url = 'http://1.1.1.1:19900/xmlfeed';
$header = array('Content-Type: multipart/form-data');
$directory = 'xml';
if (! is_dir($directory)) {
exit('Invalid diretory path');
}
$files = array();
foreach (scandir($directory) as $file) {
if ('.' === $file) continue;
if ('..' === $file) continue;
}
//print $file;
$fields = array(
'feedtype'=>'incremental',
'datasource'=>'testing',
'data'=>file_get_contents(realpath($file))
//'data'=>file_get_contents(realpath('test.xml')) //works fine
);
$ch = curl_init();
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_HTTPHEADER,$header);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_TIMEOUT,120);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_URL,$target_url);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_POST,1);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER,1);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_SSL_VERIFYPEER, false);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_POSTFIELDS, $fields);
$return = curl_exec($ch);
if (curl_errno($ch)) {
$msg = curl_error($ch);
}
curl_close ($ch);
echo $return;
?>
Tried adding a foreach loop but that gives me an error that the file is empty.

You should do a request for each file. Put your curl execution in the foreach loop and it should be fine :
<?php
$target_url = 'http://1.1.1.1:19900/xmlfeed';
$header = array('Content-Type: multipart/form-data');
$directory = 'xml';
if (! is_dir($directory)) {
exit('Invalid diretory path');
}
$files = array();
//List all files in the directory
foreach(glob($directory."/*.*") as $file) {
//Check the file extension
$ext = pathinfo($file, PATHINFO_EXTENSION);
if($ext != 'xml') continue;
//Add the fields
$fields = array(
'feedtype'=>'incremental',
'datasource'=>'testing',
'data'=>file_get_contents($file)
);
//Post the request
$ch = curl_init();
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_HTTPHEADER,$header);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_TIMEOUT,120);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_URL,$target_url);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_POST,1);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER,1);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_SSL_VERIFYPEER, false);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_POSTFIELDS, $fields);
$return = curl_exec($ch);
if (curl_errno($ch)) {
$msg = curl_error($ch);
}
curl_close ($ch);
//Print the result for each file
echo "Result for " . basename($file) . " is : " . $return;
}
?>
It works fine for me. I hope it will help :)
