I actually got that - all the client code does is loop through sw_register
if bulk_order = 1 for each domain name that you specify.

What happens on the API side is single sw_register commands (each with their
own system generated order, charged seperately, etc).

Looping is the way :)

Subject: Re: Bulk Order


Just to clearify, I am not using the OpenSRS Perl client. I am creating my
own client from scratch with PHP. I am not refering to
register.cgi?action=bulk_order, nor any code or examples found in the
OpenSRS Perl client. If we are on the same page, then...

Ok, so when I call the "sw_register" action I can use the attribute
"bulk_order"? Where are all the domains listed then? Like I said, I see
nothing in the docs that make reference to bulk ordering, so I need some
more insight or an example of the array I need to build to push it to
OpenSRS. Here is a code snippet that someone else had written, and as you
can see, they are passing an attribute called bulk_order, but how it is
utilized it beyond me.

Bottom line, I send multiple domain registrations through with one single
command to OpenSRS as depicted below? Or, must I use logic in my own code to
loop through each domain the customer has choosen and make individual
sw_register calls.

$cmd=array('protocol'=>'XCP',
       'action'=>'SW_REGISTER',
       'object'=>'DOMAIN',
       'attributes'=>array('domain'=>$domain,
               'reg_type'=>'new',
            'reg_username'=>$username,
            'reg_password'=>$password,
            'reg_domain'=>$linkdomain,
            'bulk_order'=>$bulk_order,
            .......................

That's what the bulk_order does, fundamentally, is loop through sw_register
calls.

Subject: Bulk Order


Hi,

I am writing a custom client. I noticed in some sample code there is a
"bulk_order" attribute. However, in the documentation it makes no reference
(that I have found) to the "bulk_order" attribute or if bulk ordering is
possible. Basically, if a customer wants to register 10 new domains, is
there a bulk ordering feature that sends and links all 10 domains through in
one call to OpenSRS. Or, do I have to loop through them, 1 by 1, making
individual individual register (sw_register) calls.

Thanks for the insight!

Jason
