将特定数据类型发送到SOAP服务器 - base64binary

Question

I am trying to upload a text file of data to a soap server with a function called BulkLoadContacts. The request requires a value called

<ImportFileStream>base64Binary</ImportFileStream>

I am creating a file, then querying my database, writing to the file, then connecting to their soap server, then sending my request.

Here is a snippit of my code:

    $file = 'tempfile.txt';
$handle = fopen($file, 'w') or die ('Cannot open file: ' . $file);

$list = dbExec("select * from listrak_upload");


foreach ($list as $l){

    $data = $l['email'] . "|" . $l['First_Name'] . "|" . $l['Last_Name'];

    fwrite($handle, $data);
}
$ap_param = array( 
    'ListID'    => (integer) 252403,
    'WSImportDirectives'    => array(
        'ImportTypeEnum'        => 'AddSubscribers',
        'ImportProfileTypeEnum' => 'Overwrite',
        'FileName'              => '',
        'HasColumnNames'        => true,
        'FileName'              => $file,
        'FileDelimiter'         => '|',
    ),
    'fileMappings'  => array(
        'WSFileMappings'    => array(
            'FileColumn'            => 0,
            'IsEmailAddressColumn'  => true,
            'AttributeID'           => 'email',
        ),
),
        'ImportFileStream' => $handle
    );

try {
    $return = $soapClient->__soapCall("BulkLoadContacts",array('parameter' => $ap_param));
    var_dump($return);
}
catch(SoapFault $fault){
    var_dump($fault);
}

Here is a code example from the documentation:

Byte[] fileBytes = System.IO.File.ReadAllBytes("C:\\Temp\\ImportFiles\\TestImportFileWithProfile.txt");

Any ideas how to do this in PHP?

Answer 1

Maybe something like this:

$fileName = "test.txt";
$rawFile = fread(fopen($fileName, "r"), filesize($fileName));
$B64File = base64_encode($rawFile)

In the param array:

'ImportFileStream' => $B64File

Maybe PHP client SOAP engine encodes to B64 automatically. If this is the case, comment $B64File = base64_encode($rawFile) and send $rawFile instead.
