MoodleRest is a PHP class to query Moodle REST webservices

Hello! My name is Lawrence 🤓, and I am a ✨software developer✨ 🖥️

---

Let me start with some of my favorite things. My #1 author is Isaac Asimov 📚. I read many of his novels and short stories. I love science 🪐 and I am a curious person. I like many TV shows 🎬 like Star Trek, Lost, Breaking Bad and Cosmos.

But we are here to talk about my skillset. Althought my focus is backend development I have frontend skills too. Let's see some of my coding preferences:

Backend development

       🐘  PHP

         Laravel

       ⛪  Blade and Smarty template systems

Frontend development

         Javascript

         HTML

         CSS

         Tailwind CSS

         jQuery (but I prefer JS native)

Databases

        🐬  MySQL and 🦭  MariaDB

          Oracle

        🪶  SQLite

---

To be brief, I use many tools commonly used in development, like GIT, SSH and Docker. About operating systems I prefer Linux, but work with Windows too. I already installed and configured many web servers with Apache, PHP and MySQL/MariaDB. And I love to learn new technologies.

Let's not extend this talk anymore. Go, look at some goodies I made opensource.

• A Conway's Game of Life implementation, using javascript and svelte.
• A PHP library to access Moodle's webservices.
• A web application tool to help developers to research and discover which records were inserted into a database.

moodlerest's Issues

Request to call before core_user_get_course_user_profiles

Hello, I'm using it from your example :

$MoodleRest = new MoodleRest();
$MoodleRest->setServerAddress("http://$ip/$moodle_folder/webservice/rest/server.php");
$MoodleRest->setToken($token);
$MoodleRest->setReturnFormat(MoodleRest::RETURN_ARRAY);

$result1 = $MoodleRest->request('core_group_get_groups', array('groupids' => array(1,2))); // groupids[0]=1&groupids[1]=2

echo "result1:\n" . print_r($result1, true);
$params = array('userlist' => array(array('userid' => 3, 'courseid' => 3), array('userid' => 5, 'courseid' => 3))); //userlist[0][userid]=5&userlist[1][userid]=4&userlist[0][courseid]=2&userlist[1][courseid]=2

$result2 = $MoodleRest->request('core_user_get_course_user_profiles', $params);

echo "result2:\n" . print_r($result2, true);
die();

what I get back is "Array ( [exception] => webservice_access_exception [errorcode] => accessexception [message] => Exception du contrôle d'accès"
it's about not having access to core_user_get_course_user_profiles which is a login-required fonction.

What I have to call before this request ?

invalid argument error

hi
i want to use this function core_course_get_courses_by_field
and send request with examlpe2 in this package doc.
$MoodleRest->request('core_course_get_courses_by_field', array( array('field'=>'idnumber','value'=>'111111111')), \MoodleRest::METHOD_GET);

and then get error invalid argument.
everyone can help me ...
Thank you in advance

Error in file_get_contents

I have performed a test according to the code below

`<?php

require_once "MoodleRest.php";

$parameters = array('userlist' => array(array('userid' => 13, 'courseid' => 2), array('userid' => 13, 'courseid' => 2)));

$json = (new MoodleRest())->setServerAddress("http://dev.moodle.local/webservice/rest/server.php")->setToken('f0bb33743851adc4c2475240787c07b0')->setReturnFormat(MoodleRest::RETURN_JSON)->request('core_user_get_course_user_profiles', $parameters);

echo $json;`

And I got the following error

Can you help me?

Add a namespace so that the class can be easily autoloaded by frameworks like Laravel

file_get_contents(): SSL operation failed with code 1. OpenSSL Error messages: error:14090086:SSL routines:ssl3_get_server_certificate:certificate verify failed

Hi my man! after all, thank you for this lib, it's very useful, btw, I found this error:

A PHP Error was encountered

Severity: Warning

Message: file_get_contents(): SSL operation failed with code 1. OpenSSL Error messages: error:14090086:SSL routines:ssl3_get_server_certificate:certificate verify failed

Filename: moodlerest/MoodleRest.php

Line Number: 437

Backtrace:

File: /var/www/html/moogesdev/vendor/llagerlof/moodlerest/MoodleRest.php
Line: 437
Function: file_get_contents 

I'd fix it with the following code:

if ($this->getMethod() != self::METHOD_POST) {
            // GET
            //$moodle_request = file_get_contents($this->getUrl(false));
            $arrContextOptions=array(
                "ssl"=>array(
                    "verify_peer"=>false,
                    "verify_peer_name"=>false,
                ),
            );  
          $moodle_request = file_get_contents($this->getUrl(false), false, stream_context_create($arrContextOptions));

add composer support

It would be awesome when you can add support for composer.
