So here's the situation:
-I have a forum software, XenForo for customers to frolick about in
-I have a membership software, aMember, to handle customer payments and deliver digital products. (Both on the same website)
aMember has a template system that allows you to (ideally) easily customize the script to look like it's naturally part of your website.
XenForo has a script addon that lets you use the customized XenForo Header and footer using a PHP "include" function.
So essentially, I can take a regular php file, call the XenForo header and footer using php include, and make that page look like it's part of the forum software (almost like a wordpress header/footer). So far, everything I've mentioned is tested and working outside the aMember system, so I currently have an index.php file that calls the XenForo header and footer using include and it works great.
Here's where it gets nasty, I tried to use the PHP include script inside the aMember template system. I got it mostly working, but then the following Error is thrown with the resulting fun batch of code afterwards:
Error: Registry is already initialized

From what I can tell and my limited programming knowledge, it looks like aMember and XenForo are having a fight over who gets to use the Zend Registry.
Is there anyway I can make them play well together without hiring a full time programmer for 6 months? Thanks so much!
........................................................Response to comment:
The add comment didn't have enough charecters, so here's some of the code.
From what I can tell XenForo uses it as it's primary..well...everything, here's the START of Application.php, part of XenForo's source code. This file is over 1,000 lines, all of which make up the class that start's at the top... This seems to be the only file that uses the Zend_Registry that isn't part of the Zend source itself.
class XenForo_Application extends Zend_Registry
{
const URL_ID_DELIMITER = '.';
public static $version = '1.1.0';
public static $versionId = 1010070; // abbccde = a.b.c d (alpha: 1, beta: 3, RC: 5, stable: 7, PL: 9) e
public static $jsVersion = '';
public static $jQueryVersion = '1.5.2';
protected $_configDir = '.';
protected $_rootDir = '.';
protected $_initialized = false;
protected $_lazyLoaders = array();
protected static $_handlePhpError = true;
protected static $_debug;
protected static $_randomData = '';
protected static $_classCache = array();
public static $time = 0;
public static $host = 'localhost';
aMember uses it across several files, here are a few examples:
This is inside form.php...
public function findRuleMessage(HTML_QuickForm2_Rule $rule, HTML_QuickForm2_Node $el)
{
$strings = array(
'rule.required' => ___('This is a required field'),
);
$type = lcfirst(preg_replace('/^.+rule_/i', '', get_class($rule)));
$tr = Zend_Registry::get('Zend_Translate');
$fuzzy = sprintf('rule.%s', $type);
if (array_key_exists($fuzzy, $strings))
return $strings[$fuzzy];
}
And this is inside app.php....
function amDate($string) {
if ($string == null) return '';
return date(Zend_Registry::get('Am_Locale')->getDateFormat(), amstrtotime($string));
}
function amDatetime($string) {
if ($string == null) return '';
return date(Zend_Registry::get('Am_Locale')->getDateTimeFormat(), amstrtotime($string));
}
function amTime($string) {
if ($string == null) return '';
return date(Zend_Registry::get('Am_Locale')->getTimeFormat(), amstrtotime($string));
}
Alright, I better not post any more source code or they'll send the men in black after me.
It looks like it might be easier to program it out of aMember, but this is quickly looking like an insurmountable task, especially at my (lack of) skill level.
Additional Info:
public static function initialize($configDir = '.', $rootDir = '.', $loadDefaultData = true)
{
(244)self::setClassName(__CLASS__);
self::getInstance()->beginApplication($configDir, $rootDir, $loadDefaultData);
}
Commenting out Line 244 produced the following error:
Fatal error: Call to undefined method Zend_Registry::beginApplication() in /home/content/p/p/o/ppowers/html/forum/library/XenForo/Application.php on line 245
And adding the code you suggested into the aMember index.php file produced this error:
Fatal error: Class 'XenForo_Application' not found in /home/content/p/p/o/ppowers/html/amember/index.php on line 40
What is on line 244 of /home/content/p/p/o/ppowers/html/forum/library/XenForo/Application.php? If it's just Zend_Registry which is the default class name and if you are not afraid of modifying the sources, just comment out the call on line 244. But this is not advised as you would have problems if you wanted to update XenForo in the future.
Check if whatever is passed to setClassName() on line 244 can be configured somehow. Paste some more code. Get some more answers.
UPDATE
Fighting with XenForo would probably require quite a lot of coding, so I'd suggest a rather different approach. Since aMemeber seems to use vanilla Zend_Registry, you can try to make sure XenForo's extended version of Zend_Registry instantiates first. In your index.php (probably located in public directory) locate the line with $application->bootstrap(); or similar, and before this line add something like this:
XenForo_Application::setClassName("XenForo_Application");
And comment out line 244 of /home/content/p/p/o/ppowers/html/forum/library/XenForo/Application.php.
If this works, remember to comment on the change, cross-referencing both modified files.

I am creating a custom API for SuiteCRM. When I attempt to run the new API from {CRM Home}/custom/service/v4_1_custom I receive an 'HTTP ERROR 500'. There are not errors in the error_log file or the SuiteCRM.log file.
I have followed the method in the following two url's

public function test()

} // test

I found the answer to this issue.
In the file {SuiteCRM}/include/entryPoint.php there are many files that are included thru require_once. In this list of require_once files, there were 4 files that were set as require not require_once. These were classes and therefore could not be included a second time. I changed these to require_once and the HTTP Error 500 went away and the custom APIs started working.
I am trying to add a procedure to pop-up a modal dialog inside a plug-in.
Its purpose is to query a response at designated steps within the control-flow of the plug-in (not just acquire parameters at its start).
I have tried using gtk - I get a dialog but it is asynchronous - the plugin continues execution. It needs to operate as a synchronous function.
I have tried registering a plugin in order to take advantage of the gimpfu start-up dialogue for same. By itself, it works; it shows up in the procedural db when queried. But I never seem to be able to actually invoke it from within another plug-in - its either an execution error or wrong number of arguments no matter how many permutations I try.
[Reason behind all of this nonsense: I have written a lot of extension Python scripts for PaintShopPro. I have written a App package (with App.Do, App.Constants, Environment and the like that lets me begin to port those scripts to GIMP -- yes it is perverse, and yes sometimes the code just has to be rewritten, but for a lot of what I actual use in the PSP.API it is sufficient.
However, debugging and writing the module rhymes with witch. So. I am trying to add emulation of psp's "SetExecutionMode" (ie interactive). If
set, the intended behavior is that the App.Do() method will "pause" after/before it runs the applicable psp emulation code by popping up a simple message dialog.]
A simple modal dialogue within a gimp python-fu plug-in can be implemented via gtk's Dialog interface, specifically gtk.MessageDialog.
A generic dialog can be created via
queryDialogue = gtk.MessageDialog(None, gtk.DIALOG_DESTROY_WITH_PARENT \
gtk.MESSAGE_QUESTION, \
gtk.BUTTONS_OK_CANCEL, "")
Once the dialog has been shown,
a synchronous response may be obtained from it
queryDialogue.show()
response = queryDialogue.run()
queryDialogue.hide()
The above assumes that the dialog is not created and thence destroyed after each use.
In the use case (mentioned in the question) of a modal dialog to manage single stepping through a pspScript in gimp via an App emulator package, the dialogue message contents need to be customized for each use. [Hence, the "" for the message argument in the Constructor. [more below]]
In addition, the emulator must be able to accept a [cancel] response to 'get out of Dodge' - ie quit the entire plug-in (gracefully). I could not find a gimpfu interface for the latter, (and do not want to kill the app entirely via gimp.exit()). Hence, this is accomplished by raising a custom Exception class [appTerminate] within the App pkg and catching the exception in the outer-most scope of the plugin. When caught, then, the plug-in returns (exits).[App.Do() can not return a value to indicate continue/exit/etc, because the pspScripts are to be included verbatim.]
The following is an abbreviated skeleton of the solution -
a plug-in incorporating (in part) a pspScript
the App.py pkg supplying the environment and App.Do() to support the pspScript
a Map.py pkg supporting how pspScripts use dot-notation for parameters
App.py demonstrates creation, customization and use of a modal dialog - App.doContinue() displays the dialogue illustrating how it can be customized on each use.
App._parse() parses the pspScript (excerpt showing how it determines to start/stop single-step via the dialogue)
App._exec() implements the pspScript commands (excerpt showing how it creates the dialogue, identifies the message widget for later customization, and starts/stops its use)

I realize that this may seem like a lot of work just to be able to include some pspScripts in a gimp plug-in, and to be able to single-step through the emulation. But we are talking about maybe 10K lines of scripts (and multiple scripts).
However, if any of this helps anyone else with dialogues inside plug-ins, etc., so much the better.
My challenge here is to find the best way to test a Symfony (3.4) API application using Behat/Mink for functionnal test, in my CICD platform.
Because my testing processes must be called in a shell script, all the tests must be very linear. I have no way to start a standalone webserver like Apache or the PHP/Symfony webserver. Also, Docker is not an option.
For the moment, I can successfully test the GET verbs of the API using the Mink syntax :
-- file test.feature
#function1
Scenario Outline: Test my api
When I go to "/api/v1/hello"
Then the response is JSON
The "I go to" instruction is implemented by Mink (http://docs.behat.org/en/v2.5/cookbook/behat_and_mink.html) and it emulates a GET request only. When this instruction is called by BeHat, the app Symfony kernel is "spawned" and the "api/v1/hello" method is called internally : there is no network trafic, no TCP connection, there is no need for a dedicated webserver (apache, or the symfony standalone server). It looks like Behat is emulating a webserver and start by itself the Symfony app it its own user space.
Now I want to test the POST verbs of my API, with a json payload, but unfortunally Mink do not have other verbs than GET.
I have read some articles over the web (keyword : behat test post api) but all I have seen is based on a Guzzl/Curl client. So a real client-to-server connection is made to http://localhost and a real webserver have to respond to the request.
I want the Symfony API to be called internally without using an other webserver.
Is there a way to do that ? How to test a Symfony REST API and specially the POST verb without needing a standalone server to reply ?
Thank you.
Here is how I do a functional test of a POST API, with BeHat, without a local running webserver :
test.feature :
#function1
Scenario Outline: Test my api
Given I have the payload
"""
{ "data":"object"}
"""
When I request "POST /api/v1/post"
Then the response is JSON
The featureContext file implement two functions :
"I Have The Payload" : See here https://github.com/philsturgeon/build-apis-you-wont-hate/blob/master/chapter8/app/tests/behat/features/bootstrap/FeatureContext.php
"I request" : based on code provided by philsturgeon just above, I modify it to have something like that :
/**
* #When /^I request "(GET|PUT|POST|DELETE|PATCH) ([^"]*)"$/
*/
public function iRequest($httpMethod, $resource)
{
$this->lastResponse = $this->lastRequest = null;
$this->iAmOnHomepage();
$method = strtoupper($httpMethod);
$components = parse_url($this->getSession()->getCurrentUrl());
$baseUrl = $components['scheme'].'://'.$components['host'];
$this->requestUrl = $baseUrl.$resource;
$formParams = json_decode($this->requestPayload, true);
$formParamsList = [];
foreach($formParams as $param => $value) {
$formParamsList[$param] = json_encode($value);
}
// Construct request
$headers = [
'Accept'=>'application/json',
'Content-Type'=>'application/x-www-form-urlencoded'
];
try {
// Magic is here : allow to simulate any HTTP verb
$client = $this->getSession()->getDriver()->getClient();
$client->request(
$method,
$this->requestUrl,
$formParamsList,
[],
$headers,
null);
} catch (BadResponseException $e) {
$response = $e->getResponse();
// Sometimes the request will fail, at which point we have
// no response at all. Let Guzzle give an error here, it's
// pretty self-explanatory.
if (null === $response) {
throw $e;
}
$this->lastResponse = $e->getResponse();
throw new \Exception('Bad response.');
}
}
If you use Mink then it is quite easy
class FeatureContext extends RawMinkContext
{
/**
* #When make POST request to some Uri
*/
public function makePostRequestToSomeUri(): void
{
$uri = '/some-end-point';
/** #var \Symfony\Component\BrowserKit\Client $client */
$client = $this->getSession()->getDriver()->getClient();
$postParams = [];
$files = [];
$serverParams = [];
$rawContent = '';
$client->request(
\Symfony\Component\HttpFoundation\Request::METHOD_POST,
$uri,
$postParams,
$files,
$serverParams,
$rawContent
);
/** #var \Symfony\Component\HttpFoundation\Response $response */
$response = $client->getResponse();
//...
}
}

I'm using Lumen 5.1 and DingoApi 1.0.x to do my api development, and now I'm trying to do some acceptance testing. Following the documentation of Lumen, here is how I do it:
Here is a simplified routes definition in app\Http\routes.php:
$app->get('/', function () use ($app) {
return "Welcome to mysite.com";
});
$api = app('Dingo\Api\Routing\Router');
$api->version('v1', function ($api) {
$api->group([
'prefix' => 'dealer',
'middleware' => 'checkH5ApiSign'
], function ($api) {
$api->get('list', 'App\Http\Controllers\Credit\DealerController#index');
$api->get('staff_list', 'App\Http\Controllers\Credit\DealerController#getStaffList');
});
}
I can access both routes defined using $app or $api(dingo) in browser or via postman, they both can return a 200 response. But whenever I'm trying to access those routes in phpunit, the $app defined route like / is responding okay with 200 code, but all routes defined with $api(dingo) will response with 404 status code. Here is my test code:
class DealerTest extends TestCase
{
public function testTest()
{
$this->get('/')->assertResponseOk();
$this->get('/dealer/list')->assertResponseOk();
$this->get('/dealer/staff_list')->assertResponseOk();
}
}
and ran result:
PHPUnit 5.7.5 by Sebastian Bergmann and contributors.
F 1 / 1 (100%)
Time: 590 ms, Memory: 6.00MB
There was 1 failure:
1) DealerTest::testTest
Expected status code 200, got 404.
Failed asserting that false is true.
E:\Gitrepos\api.fin.youxinjinrong.com\vendor\laravel\lumen-framework\src\Testing\AssertionsTrait.php:19
E:\Gitrepos\api.fin.youxinjinrong.com\tests\DealerTest.php:8
FAILURES!
Tests: 1, Assertions: 2, Failures: 1.
I tried ran through Dingo package code to find the cause, but failed. All other related issue could not solve my problem either. So please help me.
update
I followed the code flow, and see that FastRoute\DataGenerator\RegexBasedAbstract.php is doing the addRoute() operation, I dumped $this->staticRoutes) in that addRoute() method, see that it's doing okay both inside browser and under phpunit. But weird enough, the following call of ->getData() is behaving differenctly: in browser all static routes are returned, but not in phpunit.
Hope this can somehow be helpful. I'm still digging this problem...
So I got mine to work by doing this;
Using the example in the example used in creating the issue:
class DealerTest extends TestCase
{
public function testTest()
{
$this->get('/')->assertResponseOk();
$this->get('/dealer/list')->assertResponseOk();
$this->get('/dealer/staff_list')->assertResponseOk();
}
}
becomes
class DealerTest extends TestCase
{
public function testTest()
{
$this->get(getenv('API_DOMAIN') . '/v1/')->assertResponseOk();
$this->get(getenv('API_DOMAIN') . '/v1/dealer/list')->assertResponseOk();
$this->get(getenv('API_DOMAIN') . '/v1/dealer/staff_list')->assertResponseOk();
}
}
I hope this helps

Actually I wanted to get some workable library to help me with REST api creation. I think that is preferable way istead of making from zero.
But is this library not workable or does it needs for some fixing? Sorry, what I missed is if this library only for ci 2?
I made search on this forum and found such hint :
I have the same problem when I load both Format.php and
Rest_Controller.php into a controller. After have a quick glance at
Format.php, it appears to be a standalone format conversion helper.
Try to just load Rest_Controller.php and see if your problem goes
away.
I commented line
//require_once("application/libraries/REST/Format.php");
in my controller, but I still get errors like :
Message: Undefined property: Users::$format.
I tried to review code of this library and see that invalid block when data are converted to json format, line 731-757 :
elseif ($data !== NULL)
{
// If the format method exists, call and return the output in that format
if (method_exists($this->format, 'to_' . $this->response->format))
{
// Set the format header
$this->output->set_content_type($this->_supported_formats[$this->response->format], strtolower($this->config->item('charset')));
$output = $this->format->factory($data)->{'to_' . $this->response->format}();
// An array must be parsed as a string, so as not to cause an array to string error
// Json is the most appropriate form for such a datatype
if ($this->response->format === 'array')
{
$output = $this->format->factory($output)->{'to_json'}();
}
}
else
{
// If an array or object, then parse as a json, so as to be a 'string'
if (is_array($data) || is_object($data))
{
$data = $this->format->factory($data)->{'to_json'}();
}
// Format is not supported, so output the raw data as a string
$output = $data;
}
}
If I tried to commented this block, but get error
Message: Array to string conversion
Looks like data are not converted in this case...
Is is possible to fix these errors?
Or can you, please, to tell me advice some codeigniter 3 REST api workable library with similar interface like library above?
Thanks!
I use that lib, work just fine. My suggestion is follow the more relevant installation instruction on github .
you also wrong place the lib file :
Tutorial say :
require(APPPATH'.libraries/REST_Controller.php');
You try :
require_once("application/libraries/REST/REST_Controller.php");
require_once("application/libraries/REST/Format.php");
No need to include the format because on line 407 the lib will load it. And also good to know on line 404 it will load the configuration (application/config/rest.php) it will be your default configuration, and also you can change it to suit your need.
Please let me know if you still got error using my answer :)
