i wrote a script, that should call a simple soap service (in python) to receive datas. The url requires get parameters, to work fine.
I realized the request with php curl:
<?php
// Curl Init
$ch = $curlObject;
// Set URL
$url = "http://localhost/soapService/?";
// Add get params
$url .= http_build_query(array("article" => "[($articleNR, 5)]"));
// Fill curl
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_URL, $url);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER, true);
// Execute
$serverOutput = curl_exec($ch);
?>
But the response says:
"NameError: name 'article' is not defined"
And if i call the URL directly in my browser, everything works fine. Where is the magic?
Ah, just made it! There was a missing CURL PARAM
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_HTTPGET, true); // Now everything works fine!

<?php
$message=$_POST["msg"];
echo $message;
// create a new cURL resource
$ch = curl_init();
// set URL and other appropriate options
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_URL, "http://.../pl1.php?
m=$message");
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_HEADER, 0);
// grab URL and pass it to the browser
curl_exec($ch);
// close cURL resource, and free up system resources
curl_close($ch);
?>
Above is the code iam using.anyone suggest me how do i get value of m in pl1.php
I am getting following error:
Your browser sent a request that this server could not understand.
In PHP variables passed as query string inside URL are accessible in $_GET array.
In your case it will be $_GET['m'].
Try this code:
<?php
$message=$_POST["msg"];
echo $message;
// curl initialize
$ch = curl_init();
// set curl options
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_URL, "http://.../pl1.php?
m=$message");
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_HEADER, 0);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER, true);
// execute request and return response
$output = curl_exec($ch);
echo $output;
// close cURL request
curl_close($ch);
?>
And to get that data on page pl1.php use $_GET['m'];
But, I believe sending data using curl with post method is better than get method.
Thank you
Following is the call to an URL using CURL :
<?php
ini_set('display_startup_errors',1);
ini_set('display_errors',1);
error_reporting(-1);
$link = $_GET['link'];
$url = "http://www.complexknot.com/user/verify/link_".$link."/";
// create a new cURL resource
$ch = curl_init();
// set URL and other appropriate options
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_URL, $url);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_HEADER, 0);
// grab URL and pass it to the browser
curl_exec($ch);
// close cURL resource, and free up system resources
curl_close($ch);
?>
The variable $url contains one URL which I'm hitting using CURL.
The logic written in the file(present in a variable $url) is working absolutely fine.
After executing the code I want the control to be redirected to one URL. For it I've written following code :
header('Location: http://www.complexknot.com/login.php');
exit;
The following code is not working. The URL http://www.complexknot.com/login.php is not opening and a blank white page appears. This is the issue I'm facing.
If I don't use the CURL and hit the URL i.e. the URL contained in $url then it gets redirect to the URL http://www.complexknot.com/login.php that means header function works fine when I hit the URL in browser.
Why it's not working when I call it from CURL?
Please someone help me.
Thanks in advance.
This is happening because CURL is outputting the data. You must use curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER, true); in order to let CURL returning data instead of outputting it.
<?php
ini_set('display_startup_errors', 0);
ini_set('display_errors', 0);
error_reporting(0);
$link = $_GET['link'];
$url = "http://www.complexknot.com/user/verify/link_$link/";
// create a new cURL resource
$ch = curl_init();
// set URL and other appropriate options
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_URL, $url);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_HEADER, 0);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER, true);
// grab URL and pass it to the browser
curl_exec($ch);
// close cURL resource, and free up system resources
curl_close($ch);
header('Location: http://www.complexknot.com/login.php');
You can use
<?php echo "<script>window.location.href = 'http://www.complexknot.com/login.php';</script>";die; ?>
I am new here and not a pro in php but need a small help. Actually I was given a code by my service prodvider to upload on my hosting. But when i uploaded that code on my hosting account it didnt work well and after contact the support I was told to use php curl code in some part to make it run. can anyone please help me with the issue.
Original Code:
<?php
$MobileNumber=substr($_REQUEST['VerifiedNumber'],-10);
$APIKey="<Your Dial2verify API Key Here>";
$SenderID="<6 ALPHABETIC CHARACTERS ONLY>";
$Message="<Your SMS Text Here>";
echo `curl -XPOST "http://host/SMS/SEND/$APIKey/$SenderID/$MobileNumber" -d "Msg=$Message"`;
?>
I don't know how to make the above code into curl code to make it work.
Thanks :)
The reason it did not work was that you where trying to call the command line version of cURL (and also doing the call wrong).
The best way is to use the php cURL module to make this call. Verify first that it is installed by creating an info.php file with the contents
<?php phpinfo();
If cURL is present on that page you are good to go.
Obviously I have not had the ability to test this code but something like this should work
$msisdn = substr($_REQUEST['VerifiedNumber'],-10);
$apiKey = "<Your Dial2verify API Key Here>";
$senderId = "<6 ALPHABETIC CHARACTERS ONLY>";
$message = "<Your SMS Text Here>";
$url = "http://host/SMS/SEND/$apiKey/$senderId/$msisdn";
$ch = curl_init();
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_URL, $url);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_POST, true);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_POSTFIELDS, array('Msg' => $message));
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER, true);
$result = curl_exec($ch);
curl_close($ch);
echo 'Response from server:';
print_r($result);
By using `, you are using CURL via command line.
1st, check if the CURL extension for php is installed properly on you environment. Check if something about CURL is available when you print <?php phpinfo();?>
2nd, if CURL is installed, check on php.net/curl to know how to use CURL.
Here a simple example to call your webservice :
<?php
$ch = curl_init();
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_URL,"http://www.host.com/SMS/SEND/$APIKey/$SenderID/$MobileNumber");
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_POST, 1);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_POSTFIELDS,"Msg=This+is+my+text+message");
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER, true);
$reply = curl_exec ($ch);
curl_close ($ch);
echo $reply;
?>
trying to send post request to api, to get an image back.
example url:
https://providers.cloudsoftphone.com/lib/prettyqr/createQR.php?user=1003123&format=png&cloudid=asdasdasd&pass=123123123
the above url works fine in the browser,
the api doesnt care if the request is get/post,
result of my code is always 'invalid input'.
code:
$url='https://providers.cloudsoftphone.com/lib/prettyqr/createQR.php';
$u = rand();
$p = rand();
$fields = array(
'user'=> urlencode($u),
'pass'=> urlencode($p),
'format'=> urlencode('jpg'),
'cloudid' => urlencode('test')
);
$ch = curl_init();
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_URL, $url);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER, 1);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_POST, 1);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_POSTFIELDS, $fields);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_SSL_VERIFYPEER, false);
$output = curl_exec($ch);
curl_close($ch);
echo $output;
on a side note: is there a way to debug the request in order to see what is being sent ?
The URL provided isn't working for POST request. Here is resulting screenshot (I tried using Advance Rest Client)
However Its working perfectly with GET method. So you can continue using GET request method to generate QR code.
I agree that GET isn't much secure compare to POST method but in your case while requesting from curl user won't get to know about such URL parameters (userid, password). Because curl request will be sending from your web server and not from client/user's browser.
Later you can just output the response image you got from the api.
I'm trying to create a script that will delete all user properties for a particular individual. I'm able to use an api call to get the users' properties. And I'm trying use a delete api to remove each property. But I'm having an issue doing so. Below is the code:
$delete = "http://www.ourwiki.com/#api/DELETE:users/$user_id/properties/%s";
$xml = new SimpleXMLElement($xmlString);
foreach($xml->property as $property) {
$name = $property['name']; // the name is stored in the attribute
file_get_contents(sprintf($delete, $name));
}
I believe I need to use curl to perform the actual delete. Here is an example of that command (property=something):
curl -u username:password -X DELETE -i http://ourwiki.com/#api/users/=john_smith#ourwiki.com/properties/something
-u Provides external user authentication.
-X Specifies the HTTP request method.
-i Outputs the HTTP response headers. Useful for debugging.
Is this something that I can incorporate right into the existing script? Or is there something else I need to do? Any help would be greatly appreciated.
update:
<?php
$user_id="john_smith#ourwiki.com";
$url=('http://aaron:12345#192.168.245.133/#api/deki/users/=john_smith#ourwiki.com/properties');
$xmlString=file_get_contents($url);
$delete = "http://aaron:12345#192.168.245.133/#api/deki/DELETE:users/$user_id/properties/%s";
$xml = new SimpleXMLElement($xmlString);
function curl_fetch($url,$username,$password,$method='DELETE')
{
$ch = curl_init();
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_URL, $url);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_CUSTOMREQUEST, $method);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER, TRUE); // returns output as a string instead of echoing it
curl_setopt($ch,CURLOPT_USERPWD,"$username:$password"); // if your server requires basic auth do this
return curl_exec($ch);
}
foreach($xml->property as $property) {
$name = $property['name']; // the name is stored in the attribute
curl_fetch(sprintf($delete, $name),'aaron','12345');
}
?>
You can use php curl, or shell out to curl using exec.
If curl is already enabled on you web server, go with php curl. If you cant install php-curl copy a command line version of curl and you are good to go.
In php-curl to set the delete method do:
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_CUSTOMREQUEST, 'DELETE');
edit
Something like this:
$ch = curl_init();
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_URL, "http://www.ourwiki.com/#api/whatever/url/you/want/or/need");
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_CUSTOMREQUEST, 'DELETE');
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER, TRUE); // returns output as a string instead of echoing it
curl_setopt($ch,CURLOPT_USERPWD,"$username:$password"); // if your server requires basic auth do this
$output = curl_exec($ch);
edit2
stick that above code in a function:
function curl_fetch($url,$username,$password,$method='DELETE')
{
$ch = curl_init();
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_URL, $url);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_CUSTOMREQUEST, $method);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER, TRUE); // returns output as a string instead of echoing it
curl_setopt($ch,CURLOPT_USERPWD,"$username:$password"); // if your server requires basic auth do this
return curl_exec($ch);
}
and replace the call to file_get_contents() in your script with the new function.
curl_fetch(sprintf($delete, $name),'aaron','12345');
Done.
looks like you are looking for the curl function calls in php, including curl_setopt
