CodeIgniter-Dynect API
=========================
Connecting to the Dynect API with CodeIgniter (PHP)
This is an open-source work in progress, and your contribution is appreciated!
TODO:
The Dynect API doesn't appear to support everything needed, but this is a decently-complete implementation and should get anyone trying to interface with Dynect via PHP a good head start.
The code is very hackish -- there's a lot of copy-paste and the CodeIgniter section is just a repurposed welcome.php -- but the good news is that sections are quite usable on their own. There's no config files, dependencies, or a significant MVC to be concerned about, and so should be decent as PHP sample code of the Dynect API implementation.
Installation
------------
1. Copy system/application/libraries/Dynect_API.php to your CodeIgniter app's application/libraries folder (if applicable, otherwise just use the PHP file as-is.)
2. Review the sample code in system/application/controllers/welcome.php for usage examples.
3. Reference Dynect's API documentation for further information.
Config
------
Ideally, there would be a config file in system/application/config but I haven't gotten it to work properly yet.
In the system/application/libraries/Dynect_API.php file, edit these lines as necessary based on info provided by Dynect:
var $user_name = '';
var $customer_name = '';
var $password = '';
Usage
------
First, load the library and instantiate the class.
$this->load->library('Dynect_API');
$dyn = new Dynect_API();
Then, login. Make sure to logout at the end.
$dyn->login();
// do things
$dyn->logout();
What you do is up to you. Here's what I've written so far:
print_r($dyn->get_all_records('foobo.com','test.foobo.com'));
print_r($dyn->get_zones());
print_r($dyn->create_zone("feebeetest1.com", "admin@feebeetest1.com", 3600));
print_r($dyn->publish_zone("feebeetest1.com"));
print_r($dyn->delete_zone("feebeetest1.com"));
print_r($dyn->get_records('A','foobo.com','test.foobo.com'));
print_r($dyn->create_record('A', 'feebeetest1.com', 'test.feebeetest1.com', array('address' => '127.0.0.1')));
print_r($dyn->delete_records('A', 'foobo.com', 'test.foobo.com'));
