Hi,

sorry for my late answer, but is was busy.

here is an example (maybe an ugly one) as a bash script, which I Use to make Infolog entries via xmlrpc:

Jürgen

#============ Logon, Session holen =======================

XMLREQUEST="<?xml version=\"1.0\"?>

system.login

domain $DOMAIN username $USERNAME password $PASSWORD "

echo “request LogOn: $XMLREQUEST”

CONTENTLENGTH=echo $XMLREQUEST | wc -c
CONTENTLENGTH=expr $CONTENTLENGTH - 1
CONTENTLENGTH=echo $CONTENTLENGTH | sed "s/ //g"

CURLREQUEST=$(curl -v --user $HT_USER:$HT_PASSWORD -b “$COOKIE_NAME” -k -d “$XMLREQUEST” -H ‘Content-Type: text/xml’ -H “Content-length: $CONTENTLENGTH” -H ‘User-Agent: egw xmlrpc’ $EGW_SERVER$EGW_URI)

echo “response Anmeldung: $CURLREQUEST”

SESSIONID="$(echo $CURLREQUEST | cut -f11 -d’ ’ | cut -f3 -d’>’ | cut -f1 -d’<’ )“
KP3=”$(echo $CURLREQUEST | cut -f14 -d’ ’ | cut -f3 -d’>’ | cut -f1 -d’<’ )"

echo " session -> $SESSIONID \n"
echo " KP3 -> $KP3 \n"

echo " -> $CURLREQUEST"

#============= make InfoLog Entry ==========================

XMLREQUEST="<?xml version=\"1.0\"?>

infolog.boinfolog.write

id 0 cat $CAT_NAME $CAT_STRING info_subject $INFO_SUBJECT info_des $TEXT info_link_id $INFO_LINK_ID info_type phone info_status not-started info_startdate $INFO_STARTDATE "

echo "will do InfologWrite "
echo “$XMLREQUEST”

CONTENTLENGTH=echo $XMLREQUEST | wc -c
CONTENTLENGTH=expr $CONTENTLENGTH - 1
CONTENTLENGTH=echo $CONTENTLENGTH | sed "s/ //g"

CURLREQUEST=$(curl -v --user $HT_USER:$HT_PASSWORD -c $COOKIE_NAME -k -d “$XMLREQUEST” -H ‘Content-Type: text/xml’ -H “Content-length: $CONTENTLENGTH” -H ‘User-Agent: BashLauncher 0.1’ $EGW_SERVER$EGW_URI)

echo " CurlRequest Eintrag: $CURLREQUEST"

gets the info_id back of the new entry for further use in the script

INFO_ID="$(echo $CURLREQUEST | cut -f6 -d’ ’ | cut -f3 -d’>’ | cut -f1 -d’<’ )"
#echo “info ID $INFO_ID”

#==================== session LogOff ========================

XMLREQUEST="<?xml version=\"1.0\"?>

system.logout

sessionid $SESSIONID kp3 $KP3 "

CONTENTLENGTH=echo $XMLREQUEST | wc -c

Thank you for your example code

1. I would like to know how this last works exactly? because I am beginner
2. I would like to know so already made an example with addressbook?

Thank you in advance

normaly you should use an xmlrpc library in relation to your programming language (PHP, java etc) - i have done the xml stuff (“generating” the xml request and the sending to egw by using curl) for my own.

for making a new addressbookentry you should use:
addressbook.boaddressbook.write
-> the logon and logoff stuff will be the same

more about that: http://www.egroupware.org/index.php?page_name=wiki&wikilang=en&wikipage=AddressbookXmlRpc

which programming language will you use for your xmlrpc client?

Thank you for your example code

For your xmlrpc client, I will use the programming language : PHP

My code will have to make :
according to certain criteria (city) since google card, I must search different chips book addresses and then return these last in a file xml or url to show information in a google card.

Thank you

Hello,

your egw konfiguration seems to be ok.

If you are visiting http://gwdev.zoomacom.org/xmlrpc.php via a browser, the error is “normal”, because rpcxml.php is expecting an xml structured message like this:
http://www.egroupware.org/index.php?page_name=wiki&wikilang=en&wikipage=xmlrpc
http://www.egroupware.org/index.php?page_name=wiki&wikilang=en&wikipage=xmlrpc2

First you have to log on via the remote call “system.login” with your username password etc., a session will be created.

Then you can do your calls to adressbook, infolog etc:
calendar.bocalendar.search(struct(…
calendar.bocalendar.read( …
calendar.bocalendar.write(…

more about this:
http://www.egroupware.org/index.php?page_name=wiki&wikilang=en&wikipage=CalendarXmlRpc

And as far as I know, the used xmlrpc(client) library should be able to handle with cookies/sessions.

And about your application:

You want to read some addresses from egw maybe specified with a search criteria, look up some stuff in the internet, add the new information to the selected addresses an write them back in the stystem, I’m right?

Désolé, je parle mieux en français qu’en anglais :

=> j’ai tapé dans un fichier php :

<?php $debug = 0; include("xmlrpc.inc"); $client = new xmlrpc_client('/', 'gwdev.zoomacom.org', 0); $msg = new xmlrpcmsg("system.login(struct( 'domain'' => 'gwdev.zoomacom.org', 'username' => 'admin', 'password' => secret))"); $res = $client->send($msg, 0,'http11'); $v=$res->value(); echo $res->serialize(); et j'obtiens le message suivant : faultCode 5 faultString Didn't receive 200 OK from remote server. (HTTP/1.1 302 Found) merci d'avance

[JDlugi]

is this directly “copy and paste” from your original code?

Because … have a look your code at:
‘domain’’ => ‘gwdev.zoomacom.org’,

you have a double, two times, deux fois ’ here

maybe this is all … give me a feedback of the result

EDIT:
which xmlrpc lib do you use … the one by pear or this one: http://phpxmlrpc.sourceforge.net/ ?

anyway …

shouldn’t you not better use xmlrpc_client like this:
$client = new xmlrpc_client(“http://gwdev.zoomacom.org/xmlrpc.php”);

Hi Lili

Your code gave me the same problems. I’ve had success with this:

<?php function xml_request ($function, $params, $auth=NULL){ $request = xmlrpc_encode_request($function, array($params)); if($auth) $auth = "\nAuthorization: Basic $auth"; $header = array('http' => array( 'method' => "POST", 'header' => "Content-Type: text/xml" . $auth, 'content' => $request )); $context = stream_context_create($header); $file = file_get_contents("http://localhost/egroupware/xmlrpc.php", false, $context); $response = xmlrpc_decode($file); if (xmlrpc_is_fault($response)) { trigger_error("xmlrpc: $response[faultString] ($response[faultCode])"); } else { } return ($response); } $params = array ( 'username' => 'admin', 'password' => 'secret' ); $res = xml_request('system.login',$params, $auth); print_r($res); $auth = base64_encode($res['sessionid'] . ':' . $res['$kp3']); print_r($res); $res = xml_request('addressbook.boaddressbook.categories',false,$auth); print_r($res); ?>

Thank you for your code, but unfortunately this last does not walk.
I have a blank page.
If I make: “echo $request;” in function “xml_request”, I have nothing

Thank you

Lili42

[Lili_42]

Est ce que depuis ton exemple, il est possible ensuite de créer le résultat en xml ?

Merci

[Lili_42]

Hi

I used your code by making as code:

$function1 = ‘addressbook.boaddressbook.search’;
if($_GET[‘searchs’]!=’’)
{
$param1 = array(‘start’ => ‘0’,‘limit’=>‘0’
,‘query’=>$_GET[‘searchs’]
,‘sort’=>‘asc’
,‘order’=>’’
,‘cquery’ =>’’
,‘customfields’=>true);
}else{$param1 = array(‘start’ => ‘0’,‘limit’=>‘0’
,‘query’=>$_GET[‘searchs’]
,‘sort’=>‘asc’
,‘order’=>’’
,‘cquery’ =>’’
,‘customfields’=>true);
}
$res1= test($function1,$param1,$auth1);
$test22 = $res1;

My problem is why I do not have the primary key, how credit at all times?

Thank you
