I need your help guys,
I have this issue:
When I use the bigbluebutton api for retrieve the meetings from the server I received this result:
Array
(
[returncode] => SimpleXMLElement Object ( [0] => SUCCESS )
[messageKey] => SimpleXMLElement Object ( )
[message] => SimpleXMLElement Object ( )
[0] => Array
(
[meetingId] => SimpleXMLElement Object ( [0] => 1111)
[meetingName] => SimpleXMLElement Object ( [0] => Test MeetingName )
[createTime] => SimpleXMLElement Object ( [0] => 1402148945933 )
[attendeePw] => SimpleXMLElement Object ( [0] => passw)
[moderatorPw] => SimpleXMLElement Object ( [0] => passw)
[hasBeenForciblyEnded] => SimpleXMLElement Object ( [0] => false )
[running] => SimpleXMLElement Object ( [0] => false )
)
)
Where the second array will be populated by the meetings. Now there is one meeting so u see only one element.
I don't need help with cycle for or foreach but I need your help for retrieve the meetingid or meetingname or attendepw.
i found this on stackoverflow :Get value from SimpleXMLElement Objectsimplexmlelement-object
and the solution was: $value = (string) $xml->code[0]->lat;
But I think this is not the solution for me.
I tried this code:
$array=$result['message'];
$id=$array['meetingId'];
But now I can't retrieved the id from this $id.
Sorry for my English, any help will be appreciated
To get the meetingId SimpleXMLElement Object
$meetingIdEl = $result[0]['meetingId'];
To get the value of meetingIdEl
$mettingId = $meetingIdEl->__toString(); // or (string)$meetingIdEl;
echo $meetingId; // 1111

I am working with the Zoho CRM api and I was able to extract the product ID when only inserting one product, but can't figure out how to do it with multiple products. https://www.zoho.com/crm/help/api/insertrecords.html#Insert_Multiple_records
I convert the response to simpleXMLElement and I can get the first product ID easily with:
...curl stuff
$data = curl_exec($ch);
$xml = new SimpleXMLElement($data);
$product_id = $xml->result->recorddetail->FL[0];
The question is if I have multiple product ID's sent back how would I get each one in a loop as my code will only return the first product ID successfully. This is an example of the response from 2 products inserted in the api and the returned response:
SimpleXMLElement Object ( [#attributes] => Array ( [uri] =>
/crm/private/xml/Products/insertRecords ) [result] => SimpleXMLElement
Object ( [message] => Record(s) added successfully [recorddetail] => Array (
[0] => SimpleXMLElement Object ( [FL] => Array ( [0] => **2389399000000122065**
[1] => 2017-03-12 21:33:50 [2] => 2017-03-12 21:33:50 [3] =>
SimpleXMLElement Object ( [#attributes] => Array ( [val] => Created By ) )
[4] => SimpleXMLElement Object ( [#attributes] => Array ( [val] => Modified
By ) ) ) ) [1] => SimpleXMLElement Object ( [FL] => Array ( [0] =>
**2389399000000122066** [1] => 2017-03-12 21:33:50 [2] => 2017-03-12 21:33:50
[3] => SimpleXMLElement Object ( [#attributes] => Array ( [val] => Created
By ) ) [4] => SimpleXMLElement Object ( [#attributes] => Array ( [val] =>
Modified By ) ) ) ) ) ) )
Not sure if it shows up in bold but the two values enclosed in ** ** is what I am looking to extract.
The key to this is to understand that this:
$xml->result->recorddetail->FL[0];
Is just shorthand for this:
$xml->result[0]->recorddetail[0]->FL[0];
That should make it obvious that to access the 2nd recorddetail (with index 1), you could write this:
$xml->result->recorddetail[1]->FL[0];
Because of the magic SimpleXML provides you can also find out how many there are:
count($xml->result->recorddetail);
And most relevantly for your case, loop over them:
foreach ( $xml->result->recorddetail as $recorddetail ) {
$product_id = $recorddetail->FL[0];
}
As a final tip, you probably want the $product_id variable to hold an ordinary string, not a SimpleXML object; you get that with a "string cast", like this:
$product_id = (string)$recorddetail->FL[0];
I'm new to woking with XML with PHP. I have a fairly complex XML structure and am using simplexml in laravel and am having trouble accessing all the elements I need to get. I am able to loop through the large XML file but simpleXML is returning two objects per record and I only seem to be able to access the elements in 'header', the first object returned...
here is part of the xml object
SimpleXMLElement Object
(
[identifier] => RCM0635
[datestamp] => 2015-06-09
)
SimpleXMLElement Object
(
[lidoWrap] => SimpleXMLElement Object
(
[lido] => SimpleXMLElement Object
(
[lidoRecID] => RCM:1748
[descriptiveMetadata] => SimpleXMLElement Object
(
[objectClassificationWrap] => SimpleXMLElement Object
(
[objectWorkTypeWrap] => SimpleXMLElement Object
(
[objectWorkType] => SimpleXMLElement Object
(
[term] => musical instruments
)
)
[classificationWrap] => SimpleXMLElement Object
(
[classification] => Array
(
[0] => SimpleXMLElement Object
(
[term] => Cornet
)
[1] => SimpleXMLElement Object
(
[conceptID] => SimpleXMLElement Object
(
[#attributes] => Array
(
[type] => SH_Class
)
)
)
)
)
)
With the code below I can get the elements in the header but I can't figure out how to get the other elements?
$streamer = \Prewk\XmlStringStreamer::createStringWalkerParser(public_path().'/xml/many_mimo_records.xml');
while ($node = $streamer->getNode()) {
$simpleXmlNode = simplexml_load_string($node);
echo (string)$simpleXmlNode->identifier;
echo (string)$simpleXmlNode->datestamp;
}
I'd be very grateful for any advice...
I'm not sure if I understand You but in major:
You act on while ($node = $streamer->getNode()) loop what means that after first iteration You'll get this object:
SimpleXMLElement Object
(
[identifier] => RCM0635
[datestamp] => 2015-06-09
)
so for the first time it's ok to read it like:
`
$simpleXmlNode = simplexml_load_string($node);
echo (string)$simpleXmlNode->identifier;
echo (string)$simpleXmlNode->datestamp;
`
but in the second iteration You have:
`
SimpleXMLElement Object
(
[lidoWrap] => SimpleXMLElement Object
(
[lido] => SimpleXMLElement Object
(
[lidoRecID] => RCM:1748
[descriptiveMetadata] => SimpleXMLElement Object
(
[objectClassificationWrap] => SimpleXMLElement Object
(
[objectWorkTypeWrap] => SimpleXMLElement Object
(
[objectWorkType] => SimpleXMLElement Object
(
[term] => musical instruments
)
)
[classificationWrap] => SimpleXMLElement Object
(
[classification] => Array
(
[0] => SimpleXMLElement Object
(
[term] => Cornet
)
[1] => SimpleXMLElement Object
(
[conceptID] => SimpleXMLElement Object
(
[#attributes] => Array
(
[type] => SH_Class
)
)
)
)
)
)
`
so the code inside while is wrong.
i sugest to try something like this:
`
while ($node = $streamer->getNode()) {
$simpleXmlNode = simplexml_load_string($node);
if (!empty($simpleXmlNode->identifier))
echo (string)$simpleXmlNode->identifier;
if (!empty($simpleXmlNode->datestamp))
echo (string)$simpleXmlNode->datestamp;
if (!empty($simpleXmlNode->lidoWrap)) {
$lido = $simpleXmlNode->lidoWrap->lido;
echo (string)$lido->lidoRecID;
// and so on as the recursive XML node objects
}
}
`
When I set $sales like so $sales = $response->xml->transactions the contents look like:
SimpleXMLElement Object
(
[transaction] => Array
(
[0] => SimpleXMLElement Object
(
[transId] => 9999999999
[submitTimeUTC] => 2016-03-16T21:57:54Z
[submitTimeLocal] => 2016-03-16T14:57:54
[transactionStatus] => capturedPendingSettlement
[invoiceNumber] => 4b1008a87f5262f0c867
[firstName] => Foo
[lastName] => Bar
[accountType] => Visa
[accountNumber] => XXXX1414
[settleAmount] => 155.00
[marketType] => eCommerce
[product] => Card Not Present
)
[1] => SimpleXMLElement Object
(
[transId] =>
So ->transaction contains an array. But if I do this:
$sales = $response->xml->transactions->transaction;
foreach ($sales as $s) {
$list[]= $s->invoiceNumber;
}
$list contains
Array
(
[0] => SimpleXMLElement Object
(
[0] => ac502c094fe1722ba100
)
[1] => SimpleXMLElement Object
(
[0] => e2eb58351c87155e3720
)
[2] => SimpleXMLElement Object
(
[0] => 0bca2bb6d5a13e641b67
)
What am I doing wrong? Where are the SimpleXMLElement Objects coming from where I just expected the invoiceNumber string?
The reason you are getting the SimpleXMLElement type objects is because when you are doing $list[]= $s->invoiceNumber; you are adding the element as it is. Since it is part of the SimpleXMLElement object it has that type internally. This comes up a lot when working with SimpleXML so its good to keep in mind.
As mentioned in the comments casting to a string will give you just the value:
$list[] = (string) $s->invoiceNumber;
I have a PHP file that uses cURL to retrieve some XML. I now want to retrieve a value from the XML but I cannot traverse to it as I am confused with the notation.
Here's my retrieved XML:
SimpleXMLElement Object
(
[#attributes] => Array
(
[uri] => /fruit/apple/xml/green/pipType
)
[result] => SimpleXMLElement Object
(
[JobOpenings] => SimpleXMLElement Object
(
[row] => Array
(
[0] => SimpleXMLElement Object
(
[#attributes] => Array
(
[no] => 1
)
[FL] => Array
(
[0] => 308343000000092052
[1] => ZR_6_JOB
)
)
[1] => SimpleXMLElement Object
(
[#attributes] => Array
(
[no] => 2
)
[FL] => Array
(
[0] => 308343000000091031
[1] => ZR_5_JOB
)
)
)
)
)
)
I have this XML stored in a variable called $xml using:
$xml = new SimpleXmlElement($data, LIBXML_NOCDATA);
Any help for how I can select the ZR_5_JOB element please?
I have tried countless times, the last effort I had was:
print_r($xml->result->JobOpenings->row[0]->FL[0]);
Could anybody please help?
(I know I will then need to do some iteration, but I'll deal with that later!)
First loop the JobOpenings rows to get each row separately and then you can access the childrens of that element in an easy way.
foreach($xml->result->JobOpenings->row as $item) {
echo $item->FL[0] . '<br>';
}

Well, the very first thing you might want to do is to convert that object into an array (to avoid naming problems)
You can use this function to do that:
function object2array($object) {
return json_decode(json_encode($object), true);
}
then something like this:
$data = object2array(simplexml_load_string('....'));
print_r($data); // Its regular array now, use it keys to access values, then simply insert them into db
