Connexion with the API

lupyo

Hello,
i try to create a script php to communicate with the API's flarum.
for make this : https://discuss.flarum.org/d/2808-how-i-implemented-cross-authentication-with-flarum

I have no error message, but the page is always searching a response indefinitely...
i work on a local with MAMP.

Here my code to test, i just ask list of users :

	header('Content-Type: text/plain');
	$name = 'forum.griphus.dev';
			 
	//la requête
	$envoi  = "GET /api/users HTTP/1.1\r\n";
	$envoi .= "Host: forum.griphus.dev\r\n";
	$envoi .= "Connection: Close\r\n";

	/*ouverture socket*/
	$socket = socket_create(AF_INET, SOCK_STREAM, SOL_TCP);
	if($socket < 0){
	        die('FATAL ERROR: socket_create() : " '.socket_strerror($socket).' "');
	}
	 
	if (socket_connect($socket,gethostbyname($name),80) < 0){
	        die('FATAL ERROR: socket_connect()');
	}
	/*/ouverture socket*/

	/*envoi demande*/
	if(($int = socket_write($socket, $envoi, strlen($envoi))) === false){
	        die('FATAL ERROR: socket_write() failed, '.$int.' characters written');
	}

	/*/envoi demande*/
	 
	/*lecture réponse*/
	$reception = '';
	while($buff = socket_read($socket, 2000)){
	   $reception.=$buff;
	}
	echo $reception;
	/*/lecture réponse*/
	 
	socket_close($socket);

EDIT : the problem come from "socket_read()" who load infinitly, but i don't know why.

How retrieve the json string on /api/users with a script php ?

Do i use socket request ? Or may be curl ?

lupyo

Ok i finally found another solution :

$json = file_get_contents('http://forum.griphus.dev/api/users');
$obj = json_decode($json);
print_r($obj);

It's working.

and another solution with curl :

           $ch = curl_init();
	curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_SSL_VERIFYPEER, false);
	curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER, true);
	curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_URL, 'http://forum.griphus.dev/api/users');
	$result = curl_exec($ch);
	curl_close($ch);

	$obj = json_decode($result);
	print_r($obj);

May be it can be useful for another newbie as me lol
