[freeside-devel] Freeside XML-RPC Interfacing. (sample client included)

[Kristian Hoffmann]

The general form for freeside XMLRPC calls is...

#$result = $server->call('class.subroutine', @args);

For example...

#!/usr/bin/perl

use warnings;
use Frontier::Client;
use Data::Dumper;

    # Make an object to represent the XML-RPC server.
    $server_url = 'http://wavetail.420.am:81/freeside/misc/xmlrpc.cgi';
    $server = Frontier::Client->new(url => $server_url);
    $server -> {'ua'} -> credentials("wavetail.420.am:81", "Freeside", "guest", "guest");
    $server -> {'debug'} = 1;

    $result = $server->call('Record.qsearchs', 'cust_main', { custnum => 2 });
    print Dumper ( \$result );


You can also look at freeside/rt/lib/RT/URI/freeside/XMLRPC.pm in the
freeside source tree for more examples.
