XenAPI - XenForo PHP REST API 1.4.2

[TACTICS]

For some reason when I try to register a user (using the example) I get an unexpected database error. I have tried removing customs fields and certain requirements (making everything the defaults) and it still is not working for me.

Could you enable debug in /library/config.php, $config['debug'] = 1;
See if that displays a stacktrace.

After posting that I just remembered that I could View Source of the database error page. Turns out there was a conflict with TaigaChat Pro shout box. Even just "disabling" this addon would throw a database error. After uninstalling it, however, everything work flawlessly. The error I was getting is below:

<!-- Mysqli statement execute error : Field 'taigachat_color' doesn't have a default value -->

Seems like some addon author have been sloppy with their database fields

I made it possible to edit users and I had to correct a few minor issues with the API earlier.
I moved the code to a "dev" branch, which can be found here: https://github.com/Contex/XenAPI/tree/dev

Contex updated XenAPI - XenForo REST API with a new update entry:

Added a bunch of new actions, it's now possible to register and edit users.

You can now:

I'll try to release 1.3.1 with getNode and getNodes actions sometime today.

 

[Contex]

Contex updated XenAPI - XenForo REST API with a new update entry:

Added getNode and getNodes, allows to grab categories, link forums, forums and pages.

Added two new actions that were missing in the 1.3 update:

• getNode, allows to grab a specific node and get the information about the specific node.
• getNodes, allows to grab a list of nodes, it's also possible to grab specific...

What about creating threads or posts?

 

[faeronsayn]

getThread seems to not get the thread content.

I assume you would do that through the getPost method. Since I want the thread content, is it possible to get posts that have a position of 1, and come from a certain specific node. That would essentially make it so I get the 5 latest threads from let's say the Announcements forum.

I'll add that later today when I get home from work.

By thread content, do you mean the first post of the thread?
I could create a "grab_content" parameter, which would grab the content of the first post in the thread, like so:

api.php?action=getThreads&hash=API_KEY&node_id=4&grab_content

I could also make it so you could grab a specific amount of posts (0 being all the posts in the thread).

api.php?action=getThreads&hash=API_KEY&node_id=4&grab_content&post_limit=10

Thoughts?

I'm working on a rewrite of the code, to make it easier to add custom actions, Single Sign On, real RESTful API (current code is a workaround), and much more.

What about specifying how many threads to get in the parameters?

Lets say get 5 of the latest threads in the node_id 4 with their messages as well, as in their content.

That should already be possible by using the "order_by" parameter with "post_date" and using the "limit" parameter, like so:

api.php?action=getThreads&hash=API_KEY&node_id=4&order_by=post_date&order=desc&limit=5

Only thing I have to implement is grabbing the actual content (posts/messages) and a way to limit the amount of posts/messages if needed.

Grab all the posts/messages in each thread:

api.php?action=getThreads&hash=API_KEY&node_id=4&order_by=post_date&order=desc&limit=5&grab_content

Limit amount of posts/messages in each thread (I'm not fully sure about the "content_limit" name yet, but something like that).

api.php?action=getThreads&hash=API_KEY&node_id=4&order_by=post_date&order=desc&limit=5&grab_content&content_limit=10

Should now possible with the last two commits:
https://github.com/Contex/XenAPI/commit/494ecc0e9f4cc7056329aded84e2b6e2a8b3dd2e
https://github.com/Contex/XenAPI/commit/91834d71deebf1a82e64a9268a9c823cf5907ab6

Could you try it out and see if it's what you were looking for?
Dev branch can be found here: https://github.com/Contex/XenAPI/blob/dev/net/xenapi/XenAPI/api.php

Seems to work pretty well actually

I used the following

api.php?action=getThreads&hash=My_API_Key&node_id=4&order_by=post_date&order=desc&limit=5&grab_content&content_limit=1

To grab the 5 latest threads in the announcement forums and their content.
