How to post XML using socket ?

Posted by om 28 August, 2009 (0) Comment

I had discussed posting XML over HTTP using CURL in last post. Remember that was first method.
As I had promised on earlier post I would like to share second method with you. That is socket!!
Use this code and send your XML file.

View Code PHP
<?php
function postXMLToURL ($server, $path, $xmlDocument) {
$contentLength = strlen($xmlDocument);
$fp = fsockopen($server, 80, $errno, $errstr, 30);
fputs($fp, "POST $path HTTP/1.0rn");
fputs($fp, "Host: $serverrn");
fputs($fp, "Content-Type: text/xmlrn");
fputs($fp, "Content-Length: $contentLengthrn");
fputs($fp, "Connection: closern");
fputs($fp, "rn"); // all headers sent
fputs($fp, $xmlDocument);
$result = '';
while (!feof($fp)) {
$result .= fgets($fp, 128);
}
return $result;
}
 
function getBody ($httpResponse) {
$lines = preg_split('/(rn|r|n)/', $httpResponse);
$responseBody = '';
$lineCount = count($lines);
for ($i = 0; $i < $lineCount; $i++) {
if ($lines[$i] == '') {
break;
}
}
for ($j = $i + 1; $j < $lineCount; $j++) {
$responseBody .= $lines[$j] . "n";
}
return $responseBody;
}
 
$xmlpacket ='<AATHtlDispReq1>
<Agency>
<Iata>1234567890</Iata>
<Agent>lgsoftwares</Agent>
<Password>myapassword</Password>
<Brand>phpmind.com</Brand>
</Agency>
<Passengers>
<Adult AGE="" ID="1"></Adult>
<Adult AGE="" ID="2"></Adult>
</Passengers>
<DestCode>OGG</DestCode>
<CheckInDate>101009</CheckInDate>
</AATHtlDispReq1>';
 
 
$result = postXMLtoURL("www.yourdomain.com", "/path/",$xmlpacket);
 
$responseBody = getBody($result);
 
echo $responseBody;
?>

How to post XML using CURL?

Posted by om 28 August, 2009 (17) Comment

Recently I was working in a hotel booking engine and found a couple of methods to post XML to server; I thought this might be good to share with my friends who want to post xml via HTTP POST method.

There are several ways to Send XML requests via HTTP POST.
I am going to show you two ways. Both are very simple and easy.

As first approach I have used a small xml file with CURL.

View Code PHP
 
<?php 
$xml_data ='<AATAvailReq1>'.
    '<Agency>'.
        '<Iata>1234567890</Iata>'.
        '<Agent>lgsoftwares</Agent>'.
        '<Password>mypassword</Password>'.
        '<Brand>phpmind.com</Brand>'.
    '</Agency>'.
    '<Passengers>'.
        '<Adult AGE="" ID="1"></Adult>'.
        '<Adult AGE="" ID="2"></Adult>'.
    '</Passengers>'.
'<HotelAvailReq1>'.
'<DestCode>JHM</DestCode>'.
        '<HotelCode>OGGSHE</HotelCode>'.
        '<CheckInDate>101009</CheckInDate>'.
        '<CheckOutDate>101509</CheckOutDate>'.
        '<UseField>1</UseField>'.
  '</HotelAvailReq1>'.  
  '</AATAvailReq1>';
 
 
$URL = "https://www.yourwebserver.com/path/";
 
			$ch = curl_init($URL);
			curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_MUTE, 1);
			curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_SSL_VERIFYHOST, 0);
			curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_SSL_VERIFYPEER, 0);
			curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_POST, 1);
			curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_HTTPHEADER, array('Content-Type: text/xml'));
			curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_POSTFIELDS, "$xml_data");
			curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER, 1);
			$output = curl_exec($ch);
			curl_close($ch);
 
?>
