I want to retrieve data from database using mysql in codeigniter/custom php through text from my mobile.
I am student and new developer.
I'm going to try to point you in the right direction although a little research would take you there anyway. You should start by looking for an SMS API in php. A simple google search returns a lot of relevant results.
TextMagic is one such SMS Api and is hosted on https://code.google.com/. It is pretty well documented and quite simple to use:
$api = new TextMagicAPI(array(
"username" => "your_user_name",
"password" => "your_API_password",
));
$text = "Hello world!";
$phones = array(9991234567);
$is_unicode = true;
$api->send($text, $phones, $is_unicode);
So it's just about creating an account and it allows you to receive SMS as well.It all depends on how you want to go about it (if you are looking for a free or paid service and other features that you might want).
Anyway, I hope it gets you started in the right direction.

I am trying to get a reply text message from Clickatell using their Rest API, when I call the parseReplyCallback function when their system posts to my page - it seems to be null or I am not sure how to get the variables it is returning. What I would like to do is have all of the variables returned insert into a SQL database so I can use it elsewhere.
I have tried quite a few things, using various styles of getting the variables such as $_POST, $results['text'], $results->text, and so forth each time I can't seem to get any information out of it. I can't just var_dump or anything because I can't see any backend or console so I am pretty much in the blind, hoping someone else is using this system and has it working fine.
require __DIR__.'/clickatell/src/Rest.php';
use clickatell\ClickatellException;
use clickatell\Rest;
$Rest = new Rest("j8VKw3sJTZuVfQGVC7jdhA");
// Incoming traffic callbacks (MO/Two Way callbacks)
$Rest->parseReplyCallback(function ($result) {
//mysqli_query($con,"INSERT INTO `SMSCHAT` (`text`) VALUES ('$result')");
$mesageId = mysqli_real_escape_string($con,$result['messageId']);
$text = mysqli_real_escape_string($con,$result['text']);
$replyMessageId = mysqli_real_escape_string($con,$result['replyMessageId']);
$to = mysqli_real_escape_string($con,$result['toNumber']);
$from = mysqli_real_escape_string($con,$result['fromNumber']);
$charset = mysqli_real_escape_string($con,$result['charset']);
$udh = mysqli_real_escape_string($con,$result['udh']);
$network = mysqli_real_escape_string($con,$result['network']);
$keyword = mysqli_real_escape_string($con,$result['keyword']);
$timestamp = mysqli_real_escape_string($con,$result['timestamp']);
//do mysqli_query
});
I'd like for it to break the result into individual variables (because I plan on doing other things such as an auto-reply, etc) and upload it to the SQL database scrubbed.
Either doesn't create the table entry or gives me a blank one altogether in that first test where I put the result in the text field.
From a Clickatell point of view, although we understand what you're asking - it's unfortunately outside the scope of support that we offer on our products.
If you would like more information on our REST API functionality, please feel free to find it here: https://www.clickatell.com/developers/api-documentation/rest-api-reply-callback/
If you don't succeed in setting up the callbacks, please feel free to log a support ticket here: https://www.clickatell.com/contact/contact-support/ and one of our team members will reach out and try to assist where possible.
I want to put my fortnite stats on my website HTML/CSS. I find this.
But I don't know php very good, so I need your help. Must I delete this: 'your_api_key' and put : your_api_key without the ' ' ?
And lines like this:
$this->auth = new Fortnite_Auth($this);
$this->challenges = new Fortnite_Challenges($this);
$this->leaderboard = new Fortnite_Leaderboard($this);
$this->items = new Fortnite_Items($this);
$this->news = new Fortnite_News($this);
$this->patchnotes = new Fortnite_PatchNotes($this);
$this->pve = new Fortnite_PVE($this);
$this->status = new Fortnite_Status($this);
$this->weapons = new Fortnite_Weapons($this);
$this->user = new Fortnite_User($this)
Must I modify something?
(here are some informations:
-user_id: 501b9f2dfda34249a2749467513172bf
-username: NoMaD_DEEPonion
-platform: pc
-windows: season 5
)
For all this code, I used xammp server (I hope it's good)
Thank you for your help
You should always quote '' your key/strings. So it would look like:
$api->setKey('123qwerty456');
$api->user->id('NoMaD_DEEPonion');
Please read their documentation. You're supposed to get an API key from them to get started. And you don't have to edit Client.php. You're supposed to include the files instead. Try including Autoloader.php, since it requires the necessary files.
XAMPP is alright for development, but not suitable for production/public. Good luck!
What #sykez wrote.
I personally use https://fortniteapi.com/ to get the data. They also have a sweet POSTMAN page with different requests https://documenter.getpostman.com/view/4499368/RWEjoGqD
At last. I am not really sure that this will be a good project to start learning PHP from. I really suggest that you get to understand the basics of PHP first before you jump into API calls, processing arrays and more.
I'm actually building a PHP bot that reads the youtube live streaming chat, and store in a Database the message that contains a specific keyword wrote by the users during the livestream. All the logic is in place, what is missing is the feedback on chat when the bot is "triggered".
I looked everywhere but seams the PHP documentation is missing, if you look inside the PHP Classes there is the public function insert, but there is no example at all on how to use it?
Someone know how to use it?
Should be something "simple" like: $result = $youtube->liveChatMessages->Insert($args); but I can't figure out on what args looks like.
HERE the only reference about the Insert method
Thanks to all for any suggestion on how to use it!
17/06/2018 edit Working Example
$liveChatMessage = new Google_Service_YouTube_LiveChatMessage();
$liveChatSnippet = new Google_Service_YouTube_LiveChatMessageSnippet();
$liveChatSnippet->setLiveChatId($liveChatID);
$liveChatSnippet->setType("textMessageEvent");
$messageDetails = new Google_Service_YouTube_LiveChatTextMessageDetails();
$messageDetails->setMessageText("Message to type in chat");
$liveChatSnippet->setTextMessageDetails($messageDetails);
$liveChatMessage->setSnippet($liveChatSnippet);
$videoCommentInsertResponse = $youtube->liveChatMessages->insert('snippet', $liveChatMessage);
Having read documentations and tutorials for hours, I ended up in more confusion after all. So, here I'm asking for your help/tips and I'd really appreciate any effort helps me take a step further. Sorry for any mistakes I might possibly make, I'm quite newbie on this topic, so to say.
I'm building a web application, actually a single web page, that will start running as soon as it receives a GET/POST request from an external source. So, the page will be updated asynchronously if any request is received, for which I thought of using AngularJS and AngularFire on the front-end later on. I know there are many other ways and probably much simpler too, but I'm quite curious about how to integrate my CakePHP application with Firebase platform. So, let's stick with CakePHP + Firebase solutions for now.
So far, using the SDK Firebase PHP Client made much sense, however, I'm still confused about the files that needs to be manipulated. Since there are simply not many -I've found none so far- examples that use CakePHP3 Framework with Firebase, I'm stuck here and I'd really appreciate any help here. Firstly, this code is given in the link and I wonder how it works and what those vars and constants stand for.
const DEFAULT_URL = 'https://kidsplace.firebaseio.com/';
const DEFAULT_TOKEN = 'MqL0c8tKCtheLSYcygYNtGhU8Z2hULOFs9OKPdEp';
const DEFAULT_PATH = '/firebase/example';
$firebase = new \Firebase\FirebaseLib(DEFAULT_URL, DEFAULT_TOKEN);
// --- storing an array ---
$test = array(
"foo" => "bar",
"i_love" => "lamp",
"id" => 42
);
$dateTime = new DateTime();
$firebase->set(DEFAULT_PATH . '/' . $dateTime->format('c'), $test);
// --- storing a string ---
$firebase->set(DEFAULT_PATH . '/name/contact001', "John Doe");
// --- reading the stored string ---
$name = $firebase->get(DEFAULT_PATH . '/name/contact001');
And here is the main question, assuming that I have a test function on one of the end points of my application, let say www.example.com/visits/test, how do I make sure that my application is integrated to Firebase platform and any request sent to that end point is being listened continuously?
Here is how I solved it, just so you know. It's needed to add a test end point to the controller file that you're using. You can find your token using Project Settings in your project file. A quick example is below.
public function test()
{
$DEFAULT_URL = 'YOUR_URL';
$DEFAULT_TOKEN = 'YOUR_TOKEN';
$DEFAULT_PATH = '/';
$firebase = new \Firebase\FirebaseLib($DEFAULT_URL, $DEFAULT_TOKEN);
$lines = [
"I had a problem once",
"I used Java to solve it",
"Now, I have ProblemFactory",
];
foreach ($lines as $line) {
$foo = $firebase->push($DEFAULT_PATH."code/",$line);
echo "child_added";
sleep(0.1);
echo "<br> ";
}
Then, in order to capture the lines added on the front-end, you may use a code similar to the code below. You can easily reach the version that fits your code from your firebase console by clicking Add "firebase to your web app" button or sth like this.
<script src="https://www.gstatic.com/firebasejs/live/3.0/firebase.js"> </script>
<script>
// Initialize Firebase
var config = {
apiKey: "YOUR_API_KEY",
authDomain: "YOUR-DOMAIN",
databaseURL: "YOUR_URL",
storageBucket: "YOUR_BUCKET",
};
firebase.initializeApp(config);
var codeRef = firebase.database().ref('code/');
codeRef.on('child_added', function(data) {
console.log(data.val());
});
</script>
I'm not done with the app yet, however, this insight may help you deal with similar issues.
Apologies, since I may not know the terminologies for the salesforce API. I just started programming a connector to interact with salesforce and I am stuck.
I have a requirement, where each time a new entry is added to the Leads section, I will have to retrieve a couple of fields (Firstname and Product Code) and pass it to a different software that makes use of PHP.
<?php
require "conf/config_cleverbridge_connector.inc.php";
require "include/lc_connector.inc.php";
// Start of Main program
// Read basic parameters
if ($LC_Username === "")
{
$LC_Username = readParam("USER");
}
if ($LC_Password === "")
{
$LC_Password = readParam("PASSWORD");
}
$orderID = "";
$customerID = substr(readParam("PURCHASE_ID"), 0, 10);
$comment = readParam("EMAIL")."-".readParam("PURCHASE_ID");
// Create product array
$products = array();
$itemID = readParam("INTERNAL_PRODUCT_ID");
$quantity = 1;
if (!ONCE_PER_PURCHASED_QUANTITY)
{
$quantity = readParam("QUANTITY");
}
// Add product to the product array
$products[] = array (
"itemIdentification" => $itemID,
"quantity" => $quantity,
);
// Create the order
$order = array(
"orderIdentification" => $orderID,
"customerIdentification" => $customerID,
"comment" => $comment,
"product" => $products,
);
// Calling webservice
$ticket = doOrder($LC_Username, $LC_Password, $order);
if ($ticket)
{
Header("HTTP/1.1 200 Ok");
Header("Content-Type: text/plain");
print TICKET_URL.$result->order->ticketIdentification;
exit;
}
else
{
$error = "No result from WSConnector_doOrder";
trigger_error($error, E_USER_WARNING);
printError(500, "Internal Error.");
exit;
}
// End of Main program
?>
Now this is the code that I got and have to work with. And this is hosted on a different remote server.
I am very very new to salesforce and I am not really sure how to trigger calling this php file over a remote site.
The basic idea is:
1. New entry in Lead is created.
2. Immediately 2 fields (custID and prodID) are sent to this PHP file I have pasted above (some of the variables are different)
3. This does its processing and sends 2 fields back to salesforce.
Any help or guidance is appreciated. Even links to read up on is okay as I am completely clueless.
PS: I have another example where it makes use of JSON Messages if that may make any difference.
Thanks
I'll repost the links from my comment :)

Web hook in salesforce?
If your PHP endpoint is visible on the open web (not a part of some intranet or just your own localhost) then simplest thing to do would be to send an Outbound Message from Salesforce. No coding required, just some XML document you'll have to parse on the PHP side. Plus it will automatically attempt to resend the messages if the host is unreachable...
If your app can't be accessed from SF servers then I think your PHP app will have to be the "actor". Querying SF every X minutes for new Leads or maybe subscribing to Streaming API... This will mean you'd have to store credentials to SF on your PHP app and remember to either change the password periodically or set on the "integration user"'s profile the "password never expires" checkbox.
So you're getting the notification, you generate your tickets, time to send them back. Will you want to pretend the update of Lead was done by the person that created it or will you want to see "last modified by: Integration User"? Outbound message can contain session id which you can use to act as the person who initiated the action (created the lead and fired the workflow) - at least until they log out or the session timeouts.
For message back you can use SOAP or REST salesforce apis - read the docs to figure out how to send an update command (and if you want to make it clear it was done by special user associated with this PHP app - how to log in to the APIs). I think the user's profile must have "API enabled" ticked before you could reuse somebody's session so maybe it's better to have a dedicated account for integrations like that...
Another thing to keep in mind if it'd be outbound messages is to ignore the messages sent from sandboxes so if somebody makes a test environment you will not call your "production" database of tickets. You can also remember to modify the outbound message and remote site setting every time a sandbox is made so you'll have "prod talking to prod, test talking to test". I know you can include user's session id in the OM - so maybe you can also add organization's id (for production it'll stay the same, every new sandbox will have new id).
The problem with this approach is that it might not scale. If 1000 leads is inserted in one batch (for example with Data Loader) - you'll get spammed with 1000 outbound messages. Your server must be able to handle such load... but it will also mean you're using 1 API request to send every single update back. You can check the limit of API requests in Setup -> Company Information. Developer Edition will have this limit very low, sandboxes are better, production is best (it also depends how many user licenses have you bought). That's why I've asked about some batching them up.
More coding but also more reliable would be to ask SF for changes every X minutes (Streaming API? Normal query? check the "web hook" answer) and send an update of all these records in one go. SELECT Id, Name FROM Lead WHERE Ticket__c = null (note there's nothing about AND LastModifiedDate >= :lastTimeIChecked)...
