Send userservice request to openfire - php

Question

I'm using codeigniter and I want to send an add request to openfire, but i don't really understand what I have to do. I'm a beginner, I read this guide User Service and i tried to add a new user with curl Curl lib, but I'm stuck. Openfire is correctly configured because if I make request from browser the add works
This is my code
$this->load->library('curl');
$username='usertest';
$password='password';
$header='Authorization';
$content='mykey';
$this->curl->create('http://myserver.net', 9090);
$this->curl->http_header($header, $content);
$this->curl->http_header('Content-Type', 'application/xml');
$this->curl->post(array('username'=>$username,'password'=>$password));
$this->curl->execute();
But users are not added
I'm sorry for my bad English

Answer 1

Here is one implementation of user service client (it is based on Curl but not on codeigniter):
$url = "http://localhost:9090/plugins/userService/users";
$xml = '<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" standalone="yes"?>
<user>
<username>'.$user['username'].'</username>
<password>'.$user['password'].'</password>
<name>'.$user['name'].'</name>
<email>'.$user['email'].'</email>
</user>';
//open connection
$ch = curl_init();
//set the url, number of POST vars, POST data
curl_setopt($ch,CURLOPT_URL, $url);
curl_setopt($ch,CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER,true);
curl_setopt($ch,CURLOPT_HEADER,true);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_HTTPHEADER, array(
'Authorization: secret',
'Content-Type: application/xml'
));
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_POST, 1 );
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_POSTFIELDS, $xml );
#curl_setopt($ch,CURLOPT_POSTFIELDSPOST, count($fields));
#curl_setopt($ch,CURLOPT_POSTFIELDS, $fields_string);
//execute post
$result = curl_exec($ch);
$http_status = curl_getinfo($ch, CURLINFO_HTTP_CODE);
ob_start(); // outer buffer
#echo "Code: $http_status | Username: {$user['name']}\n";
ob_end_flush();
//close connection
curl_close($ch);
if ($http_status == 201) {
return true;
}
else return false;
You should set the Content Type and and Authorization as array in a header.
And your XML content looks wrong. It is not only username / password in array.
