There’s lots of communication using json, this is useful PHP function for getting JSON data using CURL function.
/* E.g. $args = '{"tid":"'.$taxonomy_id.'"}'; $content = curl_request('http:/test.com/test.json', $args, 'POST'); */ if (!function_exists('get_url_data_curl')) { function get_url_data_curl($url, $args='', $httpmethod){ try{ if (function_exists('curl_init') && function_exists('curl_setopt')){ $ch = curl_init(); curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_URL, $url); curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_HTTPHEADER,array('Content-Type:application/json')); curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER, true); curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_TIMEOUT, 10); if(strcmp($httpmethod, "POST") == 0){ curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_POST, true); }else{ curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_CUSTOMREQUEST, $httpmethod); } if(strcmp($httpmethod, "POST") == 0 || strcmp($httpmethod, "PUT") == 0 && !empty($args)){ curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_POSTFIELDS, $args); } curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_SSL_VERIFYPEER, false); $result = curl_exec($ch); curl_close($ch); return $result; } }catch(Exception $e){ $error = array( 'status' => 'failed', 'errorMessage' => $e->getMessage(), 'errorCode' => '500' ); return json_encode($error); } } }
How to use is simple.
$args = '{"tid":"'.$taxonomy_id.'"}'; $content = curl_request('http:/test.com/test.json', $args, 'POST');
Put $args variable what you want to pass through.
Method can be either GET or POST.
