[xmlblaster] Attempt to use Epinions XML-RPC foiled by ignorance

[Adam Williams]

I'm trying to rewrite the php demo to use the Epinions XML-RPC module
native to recent versions of PHP.  I'm not certain if I am missing
something about how xmlBlaster works, or if I'm just doing something
wrong with the RPC.

My script looks like -

include("../php-classes/xmlrpc_utils.php");
require_once("xmlBlaster.class");
$xb = new xmlBlaster("estate1", 8080, "yoyo", "yaya");
$xb->connect();
echo "SessionID: ";
print_r($xb->get_sessionId());
echo "<br>";
echo "Publish value<br>";
$xb->publish("<key oid='airtraffic.windspeed1' contentMime='text/plain'>
                <wind>
                  <speed id='2' unit='knots'/>
                </wind>
               </key>", "YOYOMAMA");
echo "Get Value: ";
print_r($xb->query("/xmlBlaster/key/wind/speed[@id='2']"));
echo "<br>";
echo "Logout";
print_r($xb->logout());

and the publish method looks like -

  function publish($key, $doc) {
    $qos = '<qos></isDurable></qos>' ;
    $messages = xu_rpc_http_concise(
                  array(
                    'method'    => "xmlBlaster.publish",
                    'args'      => array($this->sessionId, $key, $doc, $qos),
                    'host'      => "estate1",
                    'uri'       => "/",
                    'port'      => 8080
                   )
                 );
   }

I see in the GUI console that the number of published messages rises
when the script is run (it now stands at 81).  Yet the queries result in
-

CALL [RequestBroker-/node/http:192.168.3.1:3412] Entering
get(oid='http_192_168_3_1_3412-1033379994471-58', queryType='XPATH',
query='/xmlBlaster/key/wind/speed[@id='2']') ...

/xmlBlaster/key/wind/speed[@id='2']
INFO [XmlKeyDom] 0 MessageUnits matched to subscription
"/xmlBlaster/key/wind/speed[@id='2']"


even if run from the query utility in the GUI console.  I copied the key
XML and XPath right from the FAQ, so obviously I'm missing something
about how to get at published messages.


function get($key){
  $qos = '<qos></qos>' ;
  $messages = xu_rpc_http_concise(
                array(
                  'method'      => "xmlBlaster.get",
                  'args'        => array($this->sessionId, $key, $qos),
                  'host'        => "estate1",
                  'uri'         => "/",
                  'port'        => 8080
                 )
        );
  return $messages;
 } //get

function query($query) {
  return $this->get(sprintf("<key oid='' queryType='XPATH'>%s</key>",
$query));
 }
