1.7.5 APIs calls with cURL

Developer Experience
1

Hi

I’m trying to use the CMS functions via 3rdparty apps, to do so I’m using php libcURL.

The problem is that when I’m calling the CMS functions I return empty responses, cURL logs no errors.

As I’m new to developpement I assume the error is from my code but even walking through the community posts but I didn’t found any clue to resolve my issue.

Here is a part of my calls:

function libraryupload(){
    $url = 'http://localhost:8080/xibo/3rdparty/cmsapi/xibo-functions.php';
    $curl = curl_init();
    curl_setopt($curl,CURLOPT_URL,$url.'?'."action=LibraryMediaFileUpload");
    curl_setopt($curl,CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER,true);
    curl_setopt($curl, CURLOPT_USERAGENT , "Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 8.0; Windows NT 6.1)");
    curl_setopt($curl, CURLOPT_CONNECTTIMEOUT , 7);
    curl_setopt($curl,CURLOPT_FAILONERROR,true);
    curl_setopt($curl, CURLOPT_HEADER, true);

    $curl_response = curl_exec($curl);
    $info = curl_getinfo($curl);

    if (!curl_errno($curl))
    {
         $data = json_decode($curl_response, true);
         return $data;
    }
   else
   {
       printf("cUrl error (#%d): %s<br>\n", curl_errno($curl),
       htmlspecialchars(curl_error($curl)));
   }
   curl_close($curl);
   }

“xibo-functions.php” is just “index.php” in Oauth2 folder renamed.

I’ve also edited the function called:

function LibraryMediaFileUpload() {

    // Get the test file
    $file = file_get_contents('../imagen/editImg/agenda2016.jpg');
    $payload = base64_encode($file);
    
    $params = array(
        'service' => 'rest',
        'method' => 'LibraryMediaFileUpload',
        'response' => RESPONSE,
        'fileId' => NULL,
        'checksum' => md5($payload),
       'payload' => $payload
     );

     callService($params, true);

     $params0 = array(
        'service' => 'rest',
        'method' => 'LibraryMediaAdd',
        'response' => RESPONSE,
        'fileId' => NULL,
        'type' => 'image',
        'name' => 'Test image',
        'duration' => '15',
        'fileName' => '../imagen/editImg/agenda2016.jpg'
    );

   callService($params0, true);

}

A variant with verbose shows:
