Go beyond Postman

1

hi everybody

i’m a newbie i know perharps i wan’t to do things too hard for me !!
i succeed in testing api and getting responses with the staff help it’s true
i want to go further
i saw postman generate snippets in different language i want to use php
how can i link this snippet with my application ?
for the time being my application is a simple button that i press in a page
for the time being when i’ll press the button i would get the access_token

thank you for your time

You’d want on button on click action that would execute the script in php in this case, that would be rather short script calling the API to get the access token - the application would also need to be registered with the CMS (same as Postman was to get the Ids).

You could use our oauth provider and wrappers going forward - https://github.com/xibosignage/oauth2-xibo-cms
or just straight up guzzle call linked to the button action, up to you.

I’d really again suggest to look at the oauth2 examples, either the project branch or my branch there are examples of how to use the wrappers and providers there, I believe it would make your life easier to use that.

Hi
I consider what you say but i tried and didnt understand i will try later when i feel able to do it
i would like to know if it’s a better way to get access_token ?

Regards

It’s just a simple call with 3 parameters, you can call it with guzzle or you can create oauth2 provider as per the earlier link.
