Webservice wrappper demo
Wrap methods exposed by server into php functions
The code demonstrates usage of some the most automagic client usage possible:
1) client that returns php values instead of xmlrpc value objects
2) wrapping of remote methods into php functions
See also proxy.php for an alternative take
return_type = 'phpvals'; // let client give us back php values instead of xmlrpcvals
$resp = $client->send(new PhpXmlRpc\Request('system.listMethods'));
if ($resp->faultCode()) {
echo "Server methods list could not be retrieved: error {$resp->faultCode()} '" . htmlspecialchars($resp->faultString()) . "'
\n";
} else {
echo "Server methods list retrieved, now wrapping it up...
\n\n";
flush();
$callable = false;
$wrapper = new PhpXmlRpc\Wrapper();
foreach ($resp->value() as $methodName) {
// $resp->value is an array of strings
if ($methodName == 'examples.getStateName') {
$callable = $wrapper->wrapXmlrpcMethod($client, $methodName);
if ($callable) {
echo "- Remote server method " . htmlspecialchars($methodName) . " wrapped into php function
\n";
} else {
echo "- Remote server method " . htmlspecialchars($methodName) . " could not be wrapped!
\n";
}
break;
}
}
echo "
\n";
flush();
if ($callable) {
echo "Now testing function for remote method to convert U.S. state number into state name";
$stateNum = rand(1, 51);
// the 2nd parameter gets added to the closure - it is teh debug level to be used for the client
$stateName = $callable($stateNum, 2);
}
