I'm working with SiteCore and I need to pull some data out of the software via either that API or the SQL database using a PHP script. The reason I say both are possible is because even if the database changes later on, that doesn't matter to me.
Anyway...
I'm trying to pull any data fields that I can get from a particular issue. This is my SOAP code so far, and it connects to the service and such, but the return isn't what I need...
try
{
$client = new SoapClient('http://localhost:8083/sitecore/shell/webservice/service.asmx?WSDL');
$credentials = array('Password' => 'mypassword','Username' => 'sitecore\myusername');
$Current_Issue = array(
'id' => '{043B69BA-3175-4184-812F-C925CE80324E}',
//'language' => 'en',
//'version' => '1',
//'allFields' => 'true',
'databaseName' => 'web',
'credentials' => $credentials
);
$response = $client->GetItemMasters($Current_Issue);
print_r($response);
}
catch(SoapFault $e)
{
echo $e->getMessage();
}
catch(Exception $e)
{
echo $e->getMessage();
}
This is my output:
stdClass Object
(
[GetItemMastersResult] => stdClass Object
(
[any] => <sitecore xmlns=""/>
)
)
ANY help is appreciated. If anybody knows an example SQL query that I can use, that would be just as useful as an alternative method.
Thanks
If you are running Sitecore 6.5 / 6.6 you may want to take a look at the Sitecore Item Web API which was released yesterday (5/11/12).
http://sdn.sitecore.net/Products/Sitecore%20Item%20Web%20API.aspx
This allows you to perform RESTful operations against Sitecore items without the need for the old web service / SOAP interface. Using this module you can receive a JSON representation of a Sitecore item or collection of items and even post back changes. You may find it easier to work with :)
If you have to use the SOAP interface, are you sure that your items are published ? Try changing the databaseName -> 'master' and see if you get any results. Other things to check are the permissions of the user credentials you are using.

I've a multisite installation of Drupal 8, the "main" website expose some REST webservices, locally i've some troubles on testing them, because there's no way for the various sites to see each other, when i try to do something like that
try {
$response = $this->httpClient->get($this->baseUri . '/myendpoint', [
'headers' => [
'Accept' => 'application/json',
'Content-type' => 'application/hal+json',
],
'query' => [
'_format' => 'json',
'myparameters' => 'value'
],
]);
$results = $this->serializer->decode($response->getBody(), 'json');
}
catch (RequestException $e) {
$this->logger->warning($e->getMessage());
}
return $results;
I always receive a timeout and there's no way i can make it work, i've my main website with the usual url project.ddev.site (and $this->baseUri is https://myproject.ddev.site ) and all the other websites are in the form subsite.ddev.local
If i ssh in the project and run ping myproject.ddev.site i see 172.19.0.6
I don't understand why they cannot see each other...
Just for other people who can have a similar problem: my issue was with xdebug i have it with the autoconnect, so when the request from the subsite to the main site was made, it get stuck somewhere (phpstorm didn't stop anywhere by the way) so it made the request time out.
By disabling, or configuring only for the subdomain, and avoiding it to accept the external connenction from unconfigured servers (in phpstorm) it started working, still have to do some work as i need to debug "both sides" of the request, but in this way i can work with that...
I've not thought before to try disabling xdebug because actually it didn't came into my mind...
How to retrive wp_get_current_user() inside a register_rest_route callback (Wordpress site)?
I'm just trying to do a simple hello wp_get_current_user()->user_login on a php test page:
add_action('rest_api_init', 'helloTest');
function helloTest() {
register_rest_route('hello', 'hello/(?P<id>\d+)', array(
'methods' => WP_REST_SERVER::READABLE,
'callback' => 'showHello'
));
}
function showHello($someVariable) {
echo "Hello " . wp_get_current_user()->user_login . $someVariable;
}
But wp_get_current_user() is null and wp_get_current_user->ID is 0;
I dont want to authenticate the user again. I just want to retrieve his username. If he is not logged in, just show empty an empty string.
If I have to authenticate again, how to add a "nonce" to it? On internet I just have examples using javascript, but not directly on PHP methods.
Issues in your code
First off, you should understand properly how to add custom WP REST API endpoints:
An endpoint's namespace (the first parameter passed to register_rest_route()) should be in this format: your-plugin/v<version>. E.g. hello/v1 or hello-world/v1 and not just hello or hello-world.
$someVariable (the first parameter passed to your endpoint callback function) is not just any variable — it's an instance of the WP_REST_Request class — and shouldn't be echo-ed like what you did here:
function showHello($someVariable) {
echo "Hello " . wp_get_current_user()->user_login . $someVariable;
}
And normally, the $someVariable is better be changed to $request (i.e. rename it to "request").
And you should return a valid WP REST API response. For example, to return just the username:
return new WP_REST_Response( wp_get_current_user()->user_login, 200 );
And know your own API endpoint URL..
(based on your original namespace)
/wp-json/hello/hello/1 <- correct
/wp-json/hello/?John <- incorrect
because in your code, the parameter is a number and not string: (?P<id>\d+)
I hope those help you, and once again, do read the handbook for a more detailed guide.
The Corrected Code
add_action( 'rest_api_init', 'helloTest' );
function helloTest() {
register_rest_route( 'hello/v1', 'hello/(?P<id>\d+)', array(
'methods' => WP_REST_SERVER::READABLE,
'callback' => 'showHello'
) );
}
function showHello( $request ) {
return new WP_REST_Response( wp_get_current_user()->user_login, 200 );
}
Now about getting the user (from the API endpoint — showHello())
If I have to authenticate again, how to add a "nonce" to it?
Just because the user is logged-in/authenticated to the (WordPress) site, it doesn't mean the user is automatically logged-in to the WP REST API. So yes, you'd need to either provide a nonce along with your API request, or use one of the authentication plugins mentioned right here.
Now in most cases, GET (i.e. read-only) requests to the API do not need any authentication, but if you'd like to retrieve the data of the currently logged-in user on your site, then one way is via the _wpnonce data parameter (either POST data or in the query for GET requests).
Example for a GET request:
http://example.com/wp-json/wp/v2/posts?_wpnonce=<nonce>
So based on your comment and the corrected code (above):
Theres no "code" that make the request. Its is just an anchor that
calls my route: Hello
You can add the nonce as part of the URL query string like so: (the namespace is hello/v1 and the <id> is 1)
// Make request to /wp-json/hello/v1/hello/<id>
$nonce = wp_create_nonce( 'wp_rest' );
echo 'Hello';
So try that out along with the corrected code and let me know how it goes. :)
And once again, be sure to read the REST API authentication handbook.
Is there any url like
http://mysymfony.app/_profiler/LAST_ID?panel=db ???
Have no Symfony Profile Footer when profile a json API and it cost time to go back to the overview everytime.
There should be a response header called: "X-Debug-Token-Link" which is a direct link to the latest profiler. You can inspect that in google chrome devtools after each request.
There is no way to do this that I'm aware of. I checked the bundle and there's no route that seems to cover this.
It seems plausible to me, however, that you could write you own route and action for it. Start here and then I think the basic logic of your action would look like this
$token = array_pop($this->profiler->find(null, null, 1, null, null, null));
return new RedirectResponse(
$this->generator->generate(
'_profiler',
array('token' => $token, 'panel' => 'db')
),
302,
array('Content-Type' => 'text/html')
);
What are the best practices to send emails from html & css? I have much mails in my projects & need the solution, that can allow me not to write all below code again & again:
$msg = \Swift_Message::newInstance()
->setSubject('Test')
->setFrom('noreply#example.com')
->setTo('user#example.com')
->setBody($this->renderView('MyBundle:Default:email1.text.twig'));
$this->get('mailer')->send($msg);
Maybe my answer can help. There is a special bundle Symfony2-MailerBundle that render email body from template and allows to set up sending parameters in config file & you won't have to pass them every time you want to build & send email.
Set that code as a function in a service. Functions are for that.
To create a service see the link below.
How to inject $_SERVER variable into a Service
Note: don't forget to inject the mail service as an argument!
arguments: ["#mailer"]
After you set your service;
public function sendMail($data)
{
$msg = \Swift_Message::newInstance()
->setSubject($data['subject'])
->setFrom($data['from'])
->setTo($data['to'])
->setBody($this->renderView($data['view']));
$this->mailer->send($msg);
}
And you can call your service like;
// this code below is just for setting the data
$data = [
'subject' => 'Hello World!',
'from' => 'from#address.com',
'to' => 'to#address.com',
'template' => 'blabla.html.twig'
];
// this code below is the actual code that will save you
$mailer = $this->get('my_mailer_service');
$mailer->sendMail($data);
The following function is contained in include/mail.inc of Drupal6, it uses the default SMTP settings buried in a file named "php.ini" to send mail.
function drupal_mail_send($message) {
// Allow for a custom mail backend.
if (variable_get('smtp_library', '') && file_exists(variable_get('smtp_library', ''))) {
include_once './'. variable_get('smtp_library', '');
return drupal_mail_wrapper($message);
}
else {
$mimeheaders = array();
foreach ($message['headers'] as $name => $value) {
$mimeheaders[] = $name .': '. mime_header_encode($value);
}
return mail(
$message['to'],
mime_header_encode($message['subject']),
// Note: e-mail uses CRLF for line-endings, but PHP's API requires LF.
// They will appear correctly in the actual e-mail that is sent.
str_replace("\r", '', $message['body']),
// For headers, PHP's API suggests that we use CRLF normally,
// but some MTAs incorrecly replace LF with CRLF. See #234403.
join("\n", $mimeheaders)
);
}
}
but I use shared host, therefore i can't edit php.ini, i want to edit the above function "drupal_mail_send", add the codes below into that function so that it can bypass the PHP mail() function and send email directly to my favorite SMTP server.
include('Mail.php');
$recipients = array( 'someone#example.com' ); # Can be one or more emails
$headers = array (
'From' => 'someone#example.com',
'To' => join(', ', $recipients),
'Subject' => 'Testing email from project web',
);
$body = "This was sent via php from project web!\n";
$mail_object =& Mail::factory('smtp',
array(
'host' => 'prwebmail',
'auth' => true,
'username' => 'YOUR_PROJECT_NAME',
'password' => 'PASSWORD', # As set on your project's config page
#'debug' => true, # uncomment to enable debugging
));
$mail_object->send($recipients, $headers, $body);
Could you write down the modified code for my reference?
The code in drupal_mail_send is part o the Drupal core functionality and should not be changed directly as your changes may be overwritten when you update Drupal.
Modifications of Drupal core files is often referred to by the Drupal community as "hacking core" and is largely discouraged.
Drupal already has a number of modules available which may help you. See:
http://drupal.org/project/phpmailer module:
Adds SMTP support for sending e-mails using the PHPMailer library.
Comes with detailed configuration instructions for how to use Google
Mail as mail server.
http://drupal.org/project/smtp module:
This module allows Drupal to bypass the PHP mail() function and send
email directly to an SMTP server.
