用于响应curl post请求的php代码

Question

I am new to cURL and I am setting up a test environment to send a cURL POST request using PHP and then I need to mimic the server (responding) program (PHP also) with a status code and payload. After looking and reading up on cURL and corresponding documentation and pertinent RFC documents there are a lot of examples on the request side but I could find no pertinent examples for the response side. My request code is as follows:

$url = 'http://localhost/curlresponder.php';  
              $fields =  array(
                   'City'            => urlencode('Hokeywaka'),
                   'State'           => urlencode('IL'),
                   'Zip'             => urlencode('60677'),
              );
              foreach($fields as $key => $value)
                     {$fields_string .= $key . "=" . $value . '&';}
                     rtrim($fields_string, '&');

              $ch = curl_init();

              curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_URL, $url);
              curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_POST, TRUE);
              curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_POSTFIELDS, $fields_string);
              curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER, TRUE);

              $result = curl_exec($ch);

              curl_close($ch);
              if  ($result === FALSE)
                  {echo 'Return failure ' . '<br />';
              else
                  {Process $result;}

Now I need to know what the responding program code is - assuming the request is received and processed successfully the response code of 200 is to be sent back with a payload attached (which I gather is also POST since the request was POST.

You just need the remote page to post back a JSON script. And by Post back I just mean echo a JSON string on the page. You can use that in your $result var. You might want to create an API access key just to make sure nobody else uses it if you think there might be a security issue.

$result = curl_exec($ch);
$result = json_decode($result,true);
if ($result['status']=="ok"){
    echo "Good request";
}else{
    echo "Bad request";
}
