PHP Post JSON value to next page - php

Question

I want to grab json string, set objects and httpheaders in 1.php (for example). Get these values in JSON format and display in next page (2.php).
I tried to use CURL method. I m very new to PHP. Not sure whether CURL method is the best to POST data.. Session or cookie method no need. Is there any other method other than this to POST data?
1.PHP:
<?php
$data = array($item_type = "SubscriptionConfirmation";
$message = "165545c9-2a5c-472c-8df2-7ff2be2b3b1b";
$Token = "2336412f37fb687f5d51e6e241d09c805a5a57b30d712f794cc5f6a988666d92768dd60a747ba6f3beb71854e285d6ad02428b09ceece29417f1f02d6";
$TopicArn = "arn:aws:sns:us-east-1:123456789012:MyTopic";
$Message = "You have chosen to subscribe to the topic arn:aws:sns:us-east-1:123456789012:MyTopic.\nTo confirm ";
$SubscribeURL = "https://sns.us-east-1.amazonaws.com/?Action=ConfirmSubscription&TopicArn=arn:aws:sns:us-east-1:123456789012:MyTopic&Token=2336412f37fb6";
$Timestamp = "2012-04-26T20:45:04.751Z";
$SignatureVersion = "1";
$Signature = "EXAMPLEpH+DcEwjAPg8O9mY8dReBSwksfg2S7WKQcikcNKWLQjwu6A4VbeS0QHVCkhRS7fUQvi2egU3N858fiTDN6bkkOxYDVrY0Ad8L10Hs3zH81mtnPk5uvvolIC1CXGu43obcgFxeL3khZl8IKvO61GWB6jI9b5+gLPoBc1Q=";
$SigningCertURL = "https://sns.us-east-1.amazonaws.com/SimpleNotificationService-f3ecfb7224c7233fe7bb5f59f96de52f.pem";);
$json_data = json_encode($data);
$ch = curl_init('http://example.com');
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_CUSTOMREQUEST, "POST");
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_HEADER, false);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_POSTFIELDS, $json_data);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER, true);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_CAINFO, "/path/to/CA.crt");
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_HTTPHEADER,array(
'Content-Type: application/json',
'Content-Length: ' . strlen($json_data))
);
$output = curl_exec($ch);
$result = json_decode($output);
echo $result;
?>
2.PHP:

Answer 1

1.php
$data = array(
'test' => 'data',
'new' => 'array');
$json_data = json_encode($data);
// Only work with your example, curl need full url
$request_url = 'http://teshdigitalgroup.com/2.php';
$ch = curl_init($request_url);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_CUSTOMREQUEST, "POST");
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_POSTFIELDS, $json_data);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER, true);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_HTTPHEADER, array(
'Content-Type: application/json',
'Content-Length: ' . strlen($json_data))
);
$output = curl_exec($ch);
print_r($output);
AND 2.php
print_r(file_get_contents('php://input'));
// Response 1.php's request HTTP Header
function parseRequestHeaders() {
$headers = array();
foreach($_SERVER as $key => $value) {
if (substr($key, 0, 5) <> 'HTTP_') {
continue;
}
$header = str_replace(' ', '-', ucwords(str_replace('_', ' ', strtolower(substr($key, 5)))));
$headers[$header] = $value;
}
return $headers;
}
print_r(parseRequestHeaders());
