How to install soap in php

Steps : How to install soap in php

Step 1 : Download soap library nusoap-for-php5 from the link :
http://sourceforge.net/projects/nusoap/?source=typ_redirect

Step 2 : unzip the nosoap in new folder “firstweb”.

Step 3 : Now Create two files server.php and client.php.

Step 4 : Inside the server.php Add the following code :

<code>

<!--?php require_once('lib/nusoap.php'); //require("connection.file.php");  $server = new nusoap_server; //first of all register function that will be called on server $server --->register('getUserData', array('value' => 'xsd:string'), array('return' => 'xsd:string'), 'urn:server', 'urn:server# getUserData');

function getUserData ()
{
	$items = array();
    $con = mysql_connect('localhost','root','');
	mysql_select_db('mydb', $con);
	$sql = "SELECT * FROM users";
	$query = mysql_query($sql);
		   
	while($row = mysql_fetch_array($query)){

					$items [] = array(
											'id'=>$row['id'],
											'name'=>$row['name'],
											'email'=>$row['email'],
											'profile_image'=>$row['profile_image']
						);
	}
		  return $items;

}
/*
You can add more functions here as per the requirement for the database connection make a connection class and include it in header

*/

$HTTP_RAW_POST_DATA = isset($HTTP_RAW_POST_DATA) ? $HTTP_RAW_POST_DATA : '';
$server ->service($HTTP_RAW_POST_DATA);

?>
</code>

Now you have created the function on server.php file which will fetch data and return the response.

Step 5 : Add the following code in the client.php

<!--?php require_once('lib/nusoap.php'); $url = "http://localhost/firstweb/server.php?wsdl"; $client = new nusoap_client($url); //Call server function $response = $client --->call('getUserData');

if($client->fault)
{
                echo "Eroor: Code-".$client ->faultcode."";
}
else
{
                $result = $response;
				
}

print_r($result);
?>

Not Hit the client.php in url it will return the result.

Note: Client.php file is used for testing and development purpose.
All data which will be returned through the webservice will be in the form of the xml data set.
