Hi there i am having a strange problem with downloading a remote file. I am using Flurry Data API to download some Reports. Thing is when first time we call the Flurry API it gives us XML/JSON response which contains the path of the Report for Download. It takes like 2 minutes for the report to get ready. I am having Problem with that thing. I wrote a Script which download the remote file if i just paste the link of Report directly to function which is already ready to download. It works like a charm but i have to automate the process of Downloading. So for that i First call the API and get the Report Download Link then i use sleep() function of PHP to stop execution for like 3 Minutes(Tried it with 2 also). Then i call the same function which i uses to download the report successfully doesn't work this time. Here is the File Download Method:
function get_file_and_save($file, $local_path, $newfilename) {
$err_msg = '';
$out = fopen($local_path . $newfilename . ".gz", 'wb');
if ($out == FALSE) {
print "File is not available<br>";
exit;
}
$ch = curl_init();
$headers = array('Content-type: application/x-gzip', 'Connection: Close');
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_FILE, $out);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_HTTPHEADER, $headers);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_URL, $file);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_CONNECTTIMEOUT, 0);
curl_exec($ch);
echo "<br>Error Occured:" . curl_error($ch);
curl_close($ch);
}
i also have tried giving the CURLOPT_TIMEOUT but it wasn't working either.
The code to Request to the Flurry note that download_path is working properly it just get the report link:
$query_url = 'http://api.flurry.com/rawData/Events?apiAccessCode=' . $ACCESS_CODE . '&apiKey=' . $API_KEY . '&startTime=' . $start_time . '&endTime=' . $end_time;
$response = download_path($query_url);
if ($response) {
$response_obj = json_decode($response, true);
if (isset($response_obj['report']['@reportUri'])) {
$report_link = $response_obj['report']['@reportUri'];
}
if (isset($response_obj['report']['@reportId'])) {
$report_id = $response_obj['report']['@reportId'];
}
if(isset($report_link) && !empty($report_link)){
echo "<br >Report Link: ".$report_link."<br >";
sleep(240);
$config = array(
'http' => array(
'header' => 'Accept: application/json',
'method' => 'GET'
)
);
$stream = stream_context_create($config);
$json= file_get_contents($report_link,false,$stream);
echo "<pre>";
print_r($http_response_header);
echo "</pre>";
if($http_response_header[3] == "Content-Type: application/octet-stream"){
get_file_and_save($report_link, "data-files/gz/", $current_time);
}
}
else{
echo "There was some error in downloading report";
}
} else {
$error = true;
echo "There was some error in genrating report";
}
is there something problem with sleep() or what i am stuck its been 2nd night i am unable to achieve it.
