I have a little problem, I am somewhat new to PHP and I can't get something to work.
I will explain.
I have access to a shipping API (Parcel), it gives me the possibility to track the packages by means of a guide number or a shipping ID and it returns the response in JSON with the status of the shipment.
I have made a small script that performs the tracing functions but I can't get it to show me neither the "main" status nor the "sub-events".
The request is sent via POST and the response looks like this:
{
"status": "SUCCESS",
"enviaya_shipment_number": "N9T30TAC",
"carrier_tracking_number": "9878401142",

}
]
}
So I made a form in HTML for the client to send the data, it is something very simple:
<form action="track.php" method="post" enctype="multipart/form-data" accept-charset="UTF-8" id="form-app">
<fieldset >
<!-- Heading -->
<div >
<h3 >Rastreo de Paquetes</h3>
</div>
<!-- Select List -->
<div >
<div >
<label for="carrier">Paquetería</label>
<select id="carrier" name="carrier" data-alias="" required >
<option value="UPS" >UPS</option>
<option value="Redpack" >Redpack</option>
<option value="Estafeta" >Estafeta</option>
<option value="DHL" >DHL</option>
<option value="99 Minutos" >99 Minutos</option>
<option value="FedEx" >FedEx</option>
<option value="iVoy" >iVoy</option>
</select>
</div>
</div>
<!-- Number -->
<div >
<div >
<label for="number">Número de guía o ID de Envío</label>
<input type="text" id="shipment" name="shipment" value="" data-alias="" data-integer-only="true" required>
</div>
</div>
<!-- Button -->
<div >
<div >
<button type="submit" id="button_1" name="button_1" >Enviar</button>
</div>
</div>
This in turn sends to the file that in theory connects with the API through cURL sending the data, receiving the response and decoding the JSON
<?php
include_once "key.php";
$shipment_number=$_POST["shipment"];
$carrier=$_POST["carrier"];
//SEND REQUEST post TO api AND DECODE JSON RESPONSE
$ch = curl_init();
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_URL, "https://envios.corporativomarva.mx/api/v1/trackings");
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER, 1);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_POST, 1);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_POSTFIELDS, "carrier=".$carrier."&shipment_number=".$shipment_number);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_HTTPHEADER, array(
"api_key: ".$API_KEY
));
$response = curl_exec($ch);
curl_close($ch);
$respuesta = json_decode($response);
//Show the response on HTML format with tables
echo "<table border='1'>";
echo "<tr><td>Estado del Envío</td><td>".$respuesta->shipment_status."</td></tr>";
echo "<tr><td>Evento</td><td>".$respuesta->event_description."</td></tr>";
echo "<tr><td>Guía</td><td>".$respuesta->carrier_tracking_number."</td></tr>";
echo "<tr><td>ID de Envio</td><td>".$respuesta->enviaya_shipment_number."</td></tr>";
echo "<tr><td>Fecha de envio</td><td>".$respuesta->pickup_date."</td></tr>";
//Show subevents on HTML format with tables
echo "<table border='1'>";
echo "<tr><td>Evento</td><td>Descripción</td><td>Fecha</td></tr>";
foreach ($respuesta->subevents as $subevent) {
echo "<tr><td>".$subevent->event."</td><td>".$subevent->description."</td><td>".$subevent->date."</td></tr>";
}
echo "</table>";
However, something is obviously wrong since it shows me empty cells, that is, it does not show any data.
According to the var_dump($respuesta); The API key is incorrect but I already verified and it is fine.
CodePudding user response：
I have managed to find the answer:
First I passed the API key as a header and it had to be passed as one more parameter, and then I managed to make it show me the checkpoints in a table, the complete code is:
<?php
include_once "key.php";
$shipment_number=$_POST["shipment"];
$carrier=$_POST["carrier"];
$params = array(
"api_key" => $API_KEY,
"carrier" => $carrier,
"shipment_number" => $shipment_number
);
$headers = array(
"api_key=".$API_KEY
);
curl_setopt_array($ch = curl_init(), array(
CURLOPT_URL => "https://envios.corporativomarva.mx/api/v1/trackings",
CURLOPT_SSL_VERIFYPEER => 0,
CURLOPT_POST => 1,
CURLOPT_POSTFIELDS => http_build_query($params),
CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER => 1
));
$response = curl_exec($ch);
curl_close($ch);
$respuesta = json_decode($response);
//Show the response on HTML format with tables
echo "<table border='1'>";
echo "<tr><td>Estado del Envío</td><td>".$respuesta->shipment_status."</td></tr>";
echo "<tr><td>Evento</td><td>".$respuesta->event_description."</td></tr>";
echo "<tr><td>Guía</td><td>".$respuesta->carrier_tracking_number."</td></tr>";
echo "<tr><td>ID de Envio</td><td>".$respuesta->enviaya_shipment_number."</td></tr>";
echo "<tr><td>Fecha de envio</td><td>".$respuesta->pickup_date."</td></tr>";
//Show checkpoints data in a table
echo "<tr><td colspan='2'><table border='1'>";
echo "<tr><td>Checkpoint</td><td>Fecha</td><td>Código</td><td>Descripción</td><td>Ciudad</td><td>Estado</td><td>País</td><td>Comentarios</td></tr>";
foreach($respuesta->checkpoints as $checkpoint){
echo "<tr><td>".$checkpoint->description."</td><td>".$checkpoint->date."</td><td>".$checkpoint->code."</td><td>".$checkpoint->description."</td><td>".$checkpoint->city."</td><td>".$checkpoint->state."</td><td>".$checkpoint->country."</td><td>".$checkpoint->comments."</td></tr>";
}
echo "</table></td></tr>";
echo "</table>";
CodePudding user response：
Based on the shared code snippet, you were iterating through subevent . However, I can't find any key called subevent in the response shared.
if subevent exist and it's in form of a list, then foreach statement should work.
Kindly confirm where the subevent is coming from.
foreach ($respuesta->subevents as $subevent)
