Author Topic: HTTPObject PHP parameters (Read 2365 times)

Bauklotz · October 02, 2010, 07:16:43 AM

Okay, from the beginning. I am locally hosting a website and I have a PHP script which contains this:

Code: (PHP) [Select]

<?php
    file_put_contents("./stuff.txt",$_GET["variable"]);
?>

And then in TS, I do this:

Code: (TorqueScript) [Select]

new HTTPObject(Intrastuff);
Intrastuff.get("localhost:80","/filename.php?variable=nothing");

Okay, on the server, before running the TS code, there is no file except filename.php
Now I run the TS code, and a file called stuff.txt is created. I open it, and the contents are just blank, "".
I tried making it echo the $_GET["variable"], but its still just "". I'm guessing this is a problem with TS.

How would I properly send a request of the PHP script, but passing arguments?

Also, HTTPObjects have a .post function, but the arguments dont make sense.
.post(Address, RequestURI, query, post);

Bump due to great importance.

I think you should try TCP sockets

When trying your code, I got this:
GET /filename.php?variable=nothing
This seems to correct, try checking the response first by declaring this function right after you create the HTTPObject:

Code: (TS) [Select]

function Intrastuff::onLine(%this, %line)
{
    echo(%line);
}

Well, I tried looking at TorquePowered.com, and it seems that TGE has problems encoding the "&" character (before I tried using multiple variables), and if I try stuff like ?variable=nothing&cookies=impossible, then in PHP, the variable 'variable' will contain 'nothing&cookies=impossible'.

Try just going to TCPObject.

Matter of fact, I made some functions some time ago for easy packet making. You have to send() whatever these functions return.

Code: [Select]

package Cloud_TCPObjects
{
    function TCPObject::createPostPacket(%this, %host, %path, %data)
    {
    return "POST "@ %path @" HTTP/1.1\r\nHost: "@ %host @"\r\nUser-Agent: Torque/1.0\r\nContent-Type: application/x-www-form-urlencoded\r\nContent-Length: "@ strlen(%data) @"\r\n\n"@ %data; 
    }

    function TCPObject::createGetPacket(%this, %host, %path)
    {
    return "GET "@ %path @" HTTP/1.1\r\nHost: "@ %host @"\r\nUser-Agent: Torque/1.0\r\n\r\n"; 
    }
};

Examples:

Code: [Select]

%packet = %tcp.createGetPacket("google.com", "/lol/asdf.txt");
%tcp.send(%packet);


//Your variable sending with POST
%packet = %tcp.createPostPacket("google.com", "/submit.php", "variable=nothing&cookies=impossible");
%tcp.send(%packet);


//Your variable sending with GET
%packet = %tcp.createGetPacket("google.com", "/submit.php?variable=nothing&cookies=impossible");
%tcp.send(%packet);

I also suggest making these into regular functions, they shouldn't be in every TCPObject like I did.
