SOAP Client
In our client we're going to call webmethod "getWeather", with wanted city for input parameter (string). And if we get a valid response we'll
output received data (degree, forecast). The code:
<?php
/**************************************************************
* Description:
* Creates a simple SOAP Client (client.php).
**************************************************************/
// use form data
if ((string) $_GET [ 'action' ] == 'get_data' ) {
// includes nusoap classes
require( 'inc/nusoap.php' );
// set parameters and create client
$l_aParam = array((string) $_POST [ 'city' ]);
$l_oClient = new soapclient ( 'http://somewhere.org/soap/server.php' );
// call a webmethod (getWeather)
$l_stResult = $l_oClient -> call ( 'getWeather' , $l_aParam );
// check for errors
if (! $l_oClient -> getError ()) {
// print results
print '<h1>Current data for: ' . $l_aParam [ 0 ]
. ':</h1><ul><li>DEGREES: ' . $l_stResult [ 'degrees' ]
. '°C</li><li>FORECAST: ' . $l_stResult [ 'forecast' ]
. '</li></ul>' ;
}
// print error description
else {
echo '<h1>Error: ' . $l_oClient -> getError () . '</h1>' ;
}
}
// output search form
print '
<form name="input" action="' . $_SERVER [ 'PHP_SELF' ]. '?action=get_data" method="POST">
Your city: <input type="text" name="city">
<input type="submit" value="Search">
</form>
' ;
?>
