Webservice Auto Update a Customer's id_default_group Via Script

[IeM]

Hi,

As a customer joins another site ( , I need a script to call the Prestashop webservice from that site to update that user's customer id_default_group value in site A. We already know the user's Prestashop Id and what the new group Id should be.

 

So far I have the following (error checking not included):

require_once( './PSWebServiceLibrary.php');

 

$webService = new PrestaShopWebservice($siteUrl, $key, false);

 

$opt = array('resource'=>'customers','display'=> '[id_default_group]','filter[id]' => $id);

 

$xml = $webService->get($opt);

 

$resources = $xml->children()->children(); //??????????

 

The correct element location is $xml->children()->children()->children;

 

I do not want to view the details or manually update them. The script needs to take the known id_customer and new id_default_group value and use them to automatically update Prestashop (Site A from .

 

I do not know how to update the id_default_group value in the returned data and create/format the data to send back.

 

This almost works:

$xml->customers->customer->id_default_group = 4;

$resources = $xml->children()->children()->children();

As it sets the correct child element but when it is sent back the header response is "HTTP/1.1 400 Bad Request".

 

Thanks for your assistance.

Update

 

I have a working web service update, though, there is an important improvement that needs to be made.

 

In the script below all of the details for a user are retrieved, the "id_default_group" is modified and the customer record is updated.

 

The script needs to be modified so that it only retrieves the customer's "id_default_group" and not all of the details, modifies it's value, then updates the record. I tried restricting the data using "display" => '[id_default_group]' but I could not get it right.

 

Hopefully someone can correct this script, thanks.

 

 

 

<?php

 

// Call webservice

if(isset($_SESSION['iemIdCustomer'])){

define('DEBUG', false);

define('PS_SHOP_PATH', 'http://www.domain.com/');

define('PS_WS_AUTH_KEY', 'xxxxxxxxxxxx');

require_once( '../PSWebServiceLibrary.php');

// Get the customer's id_default_group

try

{

$webService = new PrestaShopWebservice(PS_SHOP_PATH, PS_WS_AUTH_KEY, DEBUG);

 

$opt = array('resource' => 'customers');

$opt['id'] = $_SESSION["iemIdCustomer"];

$xml = $webService->get($opt);

 

// Get the elements from children of customer

$resources = $xml->children()->children()->children();

}

catch (PrestaShopWebserviceException $e)

{

// Here we are dealing with errors

$trace = $e->getTrace();

if ($trace[0]['args'][0] == 404) echo 'Bad ID';

else if ($trace[0]['args'][0] == 401) echo 'Bad auth key';

else echo 'Other error';

}

 

// Update the data and send it to the web service

 

// Update XML with new value

$xml->children()->children()->id_default_group = 4;

 

// And call the web service

try

{

$opt = array('resource' => 'customers');

$opt['putXml'] = $xml->asXML();

$opt['id'] = $_SESSION['iemIdCustomer'];

$xml = $webService->edit($opt);

echo "Successfully updated.";

}

catch (PrestaShopWebserviceException $ex)

{

// Here we are dealing with errors

$trace = $ex->getTrace();

if ($trace[0]['args'][0] == 404) echo 'Bad ID';

else if ($trace[0]['args'][0] == 401) echo 'Bad auth key';

else echo 'Other error<br />'.$ex->getMessage();

}
