Do any of you know a way to get datas from a database of a website? I already studied and made a program that POST data using json. It gets the shipment status of a certain tracking number and if it's shipped, it will be changed to delivered. And I already done that.
Now what I'm trying to do is get all the datas, or the row of that tracking number and then encode it to JSON. But I don't know what to do.
This is how I did the first program: on getting a specific tracking number and update the status to delivered.
<?php
$url='https://sample.com.ph';
$apikey='apikey';
$method ='SendPackageStatus';
$data = array(
'package' => array(
'tracking_number' => '735898532',
'package_status' => 'delivered',
'failed_reason' => '',
'updated_at' => '2014-01-01 07:02:14'
)
);
$check=json_encode($data);
$postdata = "&data=$check&apikey=$apikey&method=$method";
$ch = curl_init();
curl_setopt_array(
$ch,
array(
CURLOPT_URL => $url.'/webservice/',
CURLOPT_SSL_VERIFYPEER => false,
CURLOPT_FOLLOWLOCATION => true,
CURLOPT_VERBOSE => true,
CURLOPT_POST => 1,
CURLOPT_POSTFIELDS => $postdata,
CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER => 1,
CURLOPT_HTTPHEADER => array('Content-type: application/x-www-form-urlencoded',
)
)
);
$result = curl_exec($ch);
curl_close($ch);
echo $result;
?>
Why not use mysql?... you can store json string on db (as..strings). I dont follow what you are trying to do.

I am testing an api on postman. The request body should be in x-www-form-url-encoded. My requests are being passed successfully, and am able to generate a snippet which I have shared here. However, some of the parameters that am adding to the body (Amount, and phone number) will not be static when the api is employed on my site. These parameters will vary by user. I have tried to define those parameters at the top of the code as you cane see $Airtime_amount and
$Recieving_mobile, but how can I pass them to the x-www-form-url-encoded CURLOPT_POSTFIELDS in the code below? See how am trying to pass them, but without success...
In other words, I have a url encoded string from postman, but the parameters in that string are static. i would like to make them dynamic..Like get user phone number from wordpress, and insert it in the urlencoded string
//Wordpress hook to call the api begins here
add_action('hrw_withdrawal_request_notification','disburse_airtime',7);
function disburse_airtime() {
$Airtime_amount = "KES 230";
$Recieving_mobile = "+254757777777";
//Snippet generated from postman begins here
$curl = curl_init();
curl_setopt_array($curl, array(
CURLOPT_URL => 'https://api.sandbox.africastalking.com/version1/airtime/send',
CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER => true,
CURLOPT_ENCODING => '',
CURLOPT_MAXREDIRS => 10,
CURLOPT_TIMEOUT => 0,
CURLOPT_FOLLOWLOCATION => true,
CURLOPT_HTTP_VERSION => CURL_HTTP_VERSION_1_1,
CURLOPT_CUSTOMREQUEST => 'POST',
CURLOPT_POSTFIELDS => 'username=sandbox&recipients=%5B%7B%22phoneNumber%22%3D%3E%24Recieving_mobile%2C%22amount%22%3D%3E%24Airtime_amount%7D%5D',
CURLOPT_HTTPHEADER => array(
'Content-Type: application/x-www-form-urlencoded',
'apiKey: 61449ca078574078a6d0eaaa01cfb751f803797c99714f74d8541a25e2a612ef',
'Accept: application/json'
),
));
$response = curl_exec($curl);
curl_close($curl);
echo $response;
}
You should probably build the POSTFIELDS string using the http_build_query function.
Your existing string has what looks like a JSON string for the value of the recipients parameter, so we can build that up using arrays, then encode it when we set it in the params.
function disburse_airtime()
{
$Airtime_amount = "KES 230";
$Recieving_mobile = "+254757777777";
$recipients = [
[
'phoneNumber' => $Recieving_mobile,
'amount' => $Airtime_amount
]
];
$params = [
'username' => 'sandbox',
'recipients' => json_encode($recipients)
];
$postFields = http_build_query($params);
$curl = curl_init();
curl_setopt_array($curl, [
CURLOPT_URL => 'https://api.sandbox.africastalking.com/version1/airtime/send',
CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER => true,
CURLOPT_ENCODING => '',
CURLOPT_MAXREDIRS => 10,
CURLOPT_TIMEOUT => 0,
CURLOPT_FOLLOWLOCATION => true,
CURLOPT_HTTP_VERSION => CURL_HTTP_VERSION_1_1,
CURLOPT_CUSTOMREQUEST => 'POST',
CURLOPT_POSTFIELDS => $postFields,
CURLOPT_HTTPHEADER => [
'Content-Type: application/x-www-form-urlencoded',
'apiKey: 61449ca078574078a6d0eaaa01cfb751f803797c99714f74d8541a25e2a612ef',
'Accept: application/json'
],
]);
$response = curl_exec($curl);
curl_close($curl);
echo $response;
}
Side note, if you want to "reverse engineer" the data that is in the encoded string in order to build it up in your own code, you can do so with using urldecode and parse_str:
$str = 'username=sandbox&recipients=%5B%7B%22phoneNumber%22%3D%3E%24Recieving_mobile%2C%22amount%22%3D%3E%24Airtime_amount%7D%5D';
parse_str(urldecode($str), $params);
print_r($params);
Result:
Array
(
[username] => sandbox
[recipients] => [{"phoneNumber"=>$Recieving_mobile,"amount"=>$Airtime_amount}]
)
So I have the following CURL command in PHP, if I send it https://webhook.site I can extract all the required data in JSON format.
Instead of using webhook.site, I would like to create my own PHP webhook client.
The code below is the CURL command that works 100% when using webhook.site:
<?php
$curl = curl_init();
curl_setopt_array($curl, array(
CURLOPT_URL => 'https://webhook.site/832090f1-f54f-4847-8c0d-5ec9208541a1',
CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER => true,
CURLOPT_ENCODING => '',
CURLOPT_MAXREDIRS => 10,
CURLOPT_TIMEOUT => 0,
CURLOPT_FOLLOWLOCATION => true,
CURLOPT_HTTP_VERSION => CURL_HTTP_VERSION_1_1,
CURLOPT_CUSTOMREQUEST => 'POST',
CURLOPT_POSTFIELDS => array('SmsSid' => 'SMe8723661742d423fbf3fa9f7bbede050','SmsStatus' => 'sent','MessageStatus' => 'sent','ChannelToAddress' => '+1788123XXXX','To' => 'whatsapp:+15196978899','ChannelPrefix' => 'whatsapp','MessageSid' => 'SMe8723661742d423fbf3fa9f7bbede050','AccountSid' => 'AC306a09582e77715b0eb72df90de4c590','StructuredMessage' => 'false','From' => 'whatsapp:+154xxxxxx','MediaUrl0' => 'https://api.twilio.com/2010-04-01/Accounts/werwersdsdg72df90de4c590/Messages/wweugryuwyr7762b11ea/Media/wjeruwiy6243742
'),
CURLOPT_HTTPHEADER => array(
'user-agent: TwilioProxy/1.1',
'host: Postman'
),
));
$response = curl_exec($curl);
curl_close($curl);
echo $response;
I then tried to use PHP to create a basic webhook just to pull the data:
<?php
if($json = json_decode(file_get_contents("php://input"), true)){
$data = $json;
$fp = file_put_contents( 'request.log', $data );
}
print_r($data);
?>
But I keep coming with a blank request.log file - what am I doing wrong??? Thanks in advance
Twilio developer evangelist here.
By default, curl will make a POST request with the Content-Type header application/x-www-form-urlencoded. This is actually the same content type that Twilio uses when it sends a webhook request.
Your PHP to receive the request is trying to json_decode the data, which won't work with form encoded data. Instead, you can access $_POST to get an associative array of the parameters sent to your script. You can then write them to a log file however you like.
am trying to login to netflix using php curl but i get no response at all or errors.here is my code
$handle = curl_init();
$url = "https://www.netflix.com/ke-en/login";
// Array with the fields names and values.
// The field names should match the field names in the form.
$postData = array(
'userLoginId' => 'Lady',
'password' => 'Gaga',
'submit' => 'ok'
);
curl_setopt_array($handle,
array(
CURLOPT_URL => $url,
// Enable the post response.
CURLOPT_POST => true,
// The data to transfer with the response.
CURLOPT_POSTFIELDS => $postData,
CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER => true,
)
);
$data = curl_exec($handle);
echo curl_error($handle);
echo curl_errno($handle);
curl_close($handle);
echo $data;
the error i get is 0 and i saw that it means it is successfull
I want to request for a certain web page content for particular option selected from drop down list.
In my example, I want content from web page where Community and Level are two drop down lists. and I want web page for option Community='SoftwareFactory/Cloude' and Level='V6R2015x'.
My code is
<?php
// init the resource
$ch = curl_init('http://e4allds/');
// set a single option...
$postData = array(
'Community' => 'SoftwareFactory/Cloud',
'Level' => 'V6R2015x'
);
curl_setopt_array(
$ch, array(
CURLOPT_URL => 'http://e4allds/',
CURLOPT_POSTFIELDS => $postData,
//OPTION1=> 'Community=SOftwareFactory/Cloud',
//OPTION2=> 'Level=V6R2015x',
CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER => true
));
$output = curl_exec($ch);
echo $output;
But its giving result for default selection. Could anyone please help me how can I pass these parameters to the URL?
You need to enable the cURL POST parameter to true.
curl_setopt_array(
$ch, array(
CURLOPT_POST => true, //<------------ This one !
CURLOPT_URL => 'http://e4allds/',
CURLOPT_POSTFIELDS => $postData,
//OPTION1=> 'Community=SOftwareFactory/Cloud',
//OPTION2=> 'Level=V6R2015x',
CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER => true
));
According to manual, CURLOPT_POSTFIELDS option is The full data to post in a HTTP "POST" operation.
So, either you should switch to POST method:
curl_setopt_array(
$ch, array(
CURLOPT_URL => 'http://e4allds/',
CURLOPT_POST => true,
CURLOPT_POSTFIELDS => $postData,
CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER => true
));
or, put all the parameters in the query-string if you wish to keep using GET method:
curl_setopt_array(
$ch, array(
CURLOPT_URL => 'http://e4allds/?' . http_build_query($postData,null,'&'),
CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER => true
));
I'm trying to do an NVP pay request via cURL to the Paypal servers, but i always end up getting ERRORCODE0=81002, which basically means there's something wrong with my method.
But I just cant seem to find the problem:
//The request parameters
$request_params = array(
'METHOD' => 'PAY',
'VERSION' => '85.0',
'USER' => 'xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx',
'PWD' => 'xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx',
'SIGNATURE' => 'xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx',
'CURRENCYCODE' => 'USD',
'RETURNURL' => 'https://localhost',
'CANCELURL' => 'https://localhost'
);
$endpoint = 'https://api-3t.sandbox.paypal.com/nvp?';
//Building the NVP string
$request = http_build_query($request_params);
//cURL settings
$curl_options = array(
CURLOPT_URL => $endpoint,
CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER => 1,
CURLOPT_POST => 1,
CURLOPT_POSTFIELDS => $request,
CURLOPT_VERBOSE => 1,
CURLOPT_SSL_VERIFYPEER => FALSE,
CURLOPT_TIMEOUT => 30,
);
$ch = curl_init();
curl_setopt_array($ch, $curl_options);
$response = curl_exec($ch);
curl_close($ch);
where did you get this sample from?
I never saw the value "PAY" for "METHOD"
These need to be valid paypal actions. For example most recently I used DoDirectPayment (and I think that is the most used method for payments with paypal pro)
all the operations are available in this table on their site: http://rvyu.com/rcuu
Update: so the main question is: what do you want to do? because I don't think you are making a payment since you are not sending some basic fields (like the amount or card number); after that look for the value that matches the action you need to take
