包简介

HTTP client capable of making web requests now available as service.

README 文档

README

The sfWebBrowserPlugin proposes an HTTP client capable of making web requests. The interface is similar to that of sfTestBrowser.

Possible uses

Querying a Web service
Monitoring a Website
Mashup of content from several websites
Aggregation of RSS feeds
Proxy to another server
Cross-domain AJAX interactions
API to foreign websites
Fetch images and other types of content
...

Features

The sfWebBrowser class makes web requests based on a URI:

<?php

$b = new sfWebBrowser();
$b->get('http://www.example.com/');
$res = $b->getResponseText();

The usual methods of the sfTestBrowser also work there, with the fluid interface.

<?php

// Inline
$b->get('http://www.example.com/')->get('http://www.google.com/')->back()->reload();

// More readable
$b->get('http://www.example.com/')
  ->get('http://www.google.com/')
  ->back()
  ->reload();

The browser accepts absolute and relative URIs

<?php

$b->get('http://www.example.com/test.html');
$b->get('test.html');

The get() method accepts parameters either as a query string, or as an associative array.

<?php

$b->get('http://www.example.com/test.php?foo=bar');
$b->get('http://www.example.com/test.php', array('foo' => 'bar'));

POST, PUT and DELETE requests are also supported.

<?php

$b->post('http://www.example.com/test.php', array('foo' => 'bar'));
$b->put('http://www.example.com/test.php', array('foo' => 'bar'));
$b->delete('http://www.example.com/test.php', array('foo' => 'bar'));

You can access the response in various formats, at your convenience:

<?php

$myString         = $b->getResponseText();
$myString         = $b->getResponseBody(); // drop the <head> part
$myDomDocument    = $b->getResponseDom();
$myDomCssSelector = $b->getResponseDomCssSelector();
$mySimpleXml      = $b->getResponseXml();

The browser supports HTTP and HTTPS requests, proxies, redirects, and timeouts.

Gzip and deflate content-encoded response bodies are also supported, provided that you have the [http://php.net/zlib zlib extention] enabled.

Adapters

The browser can use various adapters to perform the requests, and uses the following selection order by default:

sfCurlAdapter: Uses Curl to fetch pages. This adapter is a lot faster than sfFopenAdapter, however PHP must be compiled with the with-curl option, and the curl extension must be enabled in php.ini (which is rarely the case by default) for it to work.
sfFopenAdapter: Uses fopen() to fetch pages. fopen() can take an URL as a parameter provided that PHP is compiled with sockets support, and allow_url_fopen is defined to true in php.ini. This is the case in most PHP distributions, so the default adapter should work in almost every platform. On the other hand, the compatibility has a cost: this adapter is slow.
sfSocketsAdapter: Uses fsockopen() to fetch pages.

Alternatively, you can specify an adapter explicitly when you create a new browser object, as follows:

<?php

// use default adapter, i.e. sfCurlAdapter
$b = new sfWebBrowser(array());

// use sfFopenAdapter
$b = new sfWebBrowser(array(), 'sfFopenAdapter');

Currenly, sfCurlAdapter offers slightly more functionality than the other adapters. Namely, it supports multipart file uploads and cookies, which means you can login to a site as well as upload files via forms.

<?php

// upload files via a form
$b = new sfWebBrowser();
$b->post($url_of_form, array(
  'file_field' => '/path/to/my/local/file.jpg'
));

// login to a website
$b = new sfWebBrowser(array(), 'sfCurlAdapter', array('cookies' => true));
$b->post($url_of_login_form, array(
  'user_field' => $username,
  'pass_field' => $password
));

Full examples are available in the unit tests.

Error Handling

sfWebBrowser distinguishes to types of error: adapter errors and response errors. Thus, sfWebBrowser calls should be run this way :

<?php

$b = new sfWebBrowser();
try
{
  if (!$b->get($url)->responseIsError())
  {
    // Successful response (eg. 200, 201, etc)
  }
  else
  {
    // Error response (eg. 404, 500, etc)
  }
}
catch (Exception $e)
{
  // Adapter error (eg. Host not found)
}

Besides, you should always remember that the response contents may contain incorrect code. Consider it as 'tainted', and therefore always use the escaping when outputting it to a template.

<?php
// In the action
$this->title = (string) $b->getResponseXml()->body->h1

// In the template
?>
<?php echo $title // dangerous ?>
<?php echo $sf_data->get('title') // correct ?>

Installation

Known limitations

Cookies, caching, and file uploads are not yet supported in any of the packages (some of this functionality is available with sfCurlAdapter, see above).
