[Phpwiki-talk] XML-RPC

[<la...@us...>]

I  have  checked  in  the files necessary for an XML-RPC interface, in
line with the spec at http://www.ecyrd.com/JSPWiki/Wiki.jsp?page=WikiRPCInterface

My  tests so far suggest that it works (!), but I would appreciate any
feedback.

To    use    the    interface,    point   your   XML-RPC   client   at
http://path.to.phpwiki/WikiXMLRPC.php

For      example,      if     your     wiki     is     normally     at
www.example.com/phpwiki/index.php,  the  XML-RPC  interface will be at
www.example.com/phpwiki/WikiXMLRPC.php

The  interface  should be available on the test wiki after the nightly
update.

 I  have  moved  the  interface to RPC2.php for consistency with other
 servers. The address will now be http://path.to.phpwiki/RPC2.php

I think the XML-RPC idea is great.   (Out of curiousity, are there any
other "standard" wiki RPC API's besides the one at JSPWiki?)

Sadly, I can't get http://phpwiki.sourceforge.net/demo/RPC2.php
to work.  (All I get is 'Unknown Method' errors.)


I've tried pointing the XML-RPC validator at
  http://validator.xmlrpc.com/
at the demo server, and it, too, failed with 'Unknown Method' on all
it's tests.  (The validator passes on 
http://xmlrpc.usefulinc.com:80/demo/server.php, which is the
demo site for the PHP XML-RPC library you're using...)

Any ideas on what might be wrong?

Not  that  I  know of. The JSPWiki "standard" has been implemented for
Twiki,  Moin  Moin  and  Openwiki  (I  think),  but  there  are slight
variations in the functionality available

What  method are you trying to call? Did you prefix it with "wiki." eg
wiki.getAllPages

Try this link:

http://www.dscpl.com.au/xmlrpc-debugger.php?method=wiki.getAllPages&params=()&url=http://phpwiki.sourceforge.net/demo/RPC2.php

Don't forget to click execute.

This  had  be  confused  for  a  while  too. In fact it is because the
validator    works   by   calling   certain   test   methods   -   see
http://www.xmlrpc.com/validator1Docs

The  idea  is  that  if  you  write  a  library,  you  can  test it by
implementing  the  methods within a test script and then and using the
validator.  It  is  the  server  code,  not  the  library which has to
implement  the  methods. I have not written handlers for the validator
methods  (life's  too  short)  so the phpwiki server does not pass the
test.

Let me know if you have any other problems.

Link in last message probably got garbled.

What I meant was:

Go to  http://www.dscpl.com.au/xmlrpc-debugger.php

Type  http://phpwiki.sourceforge.net/demo/RPC2.php  in  the  URL  box,
wiki.getAllPages  in  the  method  box, and () in the params box. Then
click Execute

Sorry

Aha!  That was (most of) my problem... no 'wiki.' prefix.
Thanks!
