transportManager
Provides instancing and constants for the transport mechanisms. A transport is a mechanism for relaying data or for performing remote actions within an application. Primarily this is for making HTTP requests in a controlled manner through a defined interface but it can be used to send emails, contact other applications etc. Additional agents can be implemented for additional services not provided by the basic clients.
transportManager requires the agent type and the credentials object.
Example usage, connect to www.example.com to a CGI script and post some encoded vars:
$oCredentials = new transportCredentials();
$oCredentials->setParam(
array(
transportCredentials::PARAM_PROTOCOL => 'http',
transportCredentials::PARAM_HOST => 'www.example.com',
transportCredentials::PARAM_PORT => '8080',
transportCredentials::PARAM_PATH => '/server/side/path.cgi',
transportCredentials::PARAM_HTTP_TIMEOUT => 60,
transportCredentials::PARAM_HTTP_PERSISTENT_TIMEOUT => 60,
transportCredentials::PARAM_HTTP_METHOD => 'post',
transportCredentials::PARAM_MESSAGE_BODY => 'encode_post_vars',
), null
);
$oTransport = transportManager::getInstance(
transportManager::TRANSPORT_AGENT_HTTP,
$oCredentials
);
if ( $oTransport->send() ) {
// sent successfully
}
