WebDAV PROPFIND

See more HTTP Examples

Demonstrates how to send a WebDAV PROPFIND HTTP request. PHP Extension

<?php

include("chilkat.php");

$success = false;

// This example assumes the Chilkat API to have been previously unlocked.
// See Global Unlock Sample for sample code.

$req = new CkHttpRequest();
$http = new CkHttp();

// The PROPFIND request to be sent will look similar to this:
// This is from RFC 4918 at http://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc4918#section-9.1.3

//      PROPFIND /file HTTP/1.1
//      Host: www.example.com
//      Content-type: application/xml; charset="utf-8"
//      Content-Length: xxxx
// 
//      <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" ?>
//      <D:propfind xmlns:D="DAV:">
//        <D:prop xmlns:R="http://ns.example.com/boxschema/">
//          <R:bigbox/>
//          <R:author/>
//          <R:DingALing/>
//          <R:Random/>
//        </D:prop>
//      </D:propfind>

// Build the HTTP request object. 

// The HTTP verb should be "PROPFIND"
$req->put_HttpVerb('PROPFIND');

// The Content-Type should be "application/xml", and
// the charset attribute in the Content-Type header should
// be utf-8:
$req->put_ContentType('application/xml');
$req->put_Charset('utf-8');
$req->put_SendCharset(true);

// Load the request body with the XML.  Your application 
// is free to construct the XML using any means desired.
// Once the XML is prepared, load it into the request body
// like this:
$xmlBody = 'This is the string that should contain the XML body...';
$success = $req->LoadBodyFromString($xmlBody,'utf-8');
if ($success == false) {
    print $req->lastErrorText() . "\n";
    exit;
}

// For this example, pretend the WEBDAV endpoint is:
// https://webdav.chilkatstorage.com/

// Note: There is no actual "chilkatstorage.com" site.  
// This is only an example...

// The "path" part of this endpoint URL is simply "/".

// Send the request to the WebDAV endpoint using 
// the HttpSReq method:

$resp = new CkHttpResponse();
$success = $http->HttpSReq('webdav.chilkatstorage.com',443,true,$req,$resp);
if ($success == false) {
    print $http->lastErrorText() . "\n";
    exit;
}

// Get the XML response:

$responseXml = $resp->bodyStr();
print 'XML Response: ' . $responseXml . "\n";

// Get the response status code, such as 207

$statusCode = $resp->get_StatusCode();
print 'StatusCode = ' . $statusCode . "\n";
