Changing script to use curl, or any other way to do the following if possible!

[loco41211]

Hello, I am trying to make a php script to fetch the simple cumulative-stats uploadedBytes and downloadedBytes and to add them together. The fetch is done via rpc on transmission (a torrent client).

 

At the current step I have come across a 409 error. When trying it in command line on the server using ssh I get the following output:

http://locotest2.co.cc/a.html

 

I asked on irc but nobody seems to be in the mood to help with this. The rpc specs I was given to use with my script are at 4.2 here:

http://trac.transmissionbt.com/browser/trunk/doc/rpc-spec.txt

 

A guy gave me this pastie on the transmission channel to edit for my own needs:

http://pastie.org/338555

 

I have made a few changes but I need to add a header as per the response I get from curl (see the a.html link above).

 

Here is my current script:

<?

function do_post_request($url, $data)
{
$params = array(
        "http" => array(
            "method" => "POST",
            "content" => $data
         )
    );
print_r($params);die;
    $ctx = stream_context_create($params);

file_get_contents($url);
die ($fp);


    if (!$fp) {
        throw new Exception("Problem with $url, $php_errormsg");
    }

    $response = @stream_get_contents($fp);
    if ($response === false) {
        throw new Exception("Problem reading data from $url, $php_errormsg");
    }

    return $response;
}

/* Construct the request array */
$request = array(
    "method" => "session-stats",
    "X-Transmission-Session-Id" => "6YNbfQSfeewqGnoXwNSlDQVcosRS5ooRgq6yAIwc6C9CFlMF",
    "arguments" => array(
    )
);

/* Do the actual request, decode the reply JSON string into a PHP object */
try {
        $reply = die(do_post_request("http://localhost:9091/transmission/rpc", json_encode($request)));
} catch (Exception $e) {
        exit();
}

/* The reply contains a list 'torrents' of objects with our requested fields */

if ($reply->arguments["cumulative-stats"]->uploadedBytes + $reply->arguments["cumulative-stats"]->downloadedBytes > 6*1024*1024*1024) { /* response triggered command here */  } 

?>

 

Can someone help me get this working? I'm logged on irc.freenode.net with the username loco if its easier to go through it there. I am extremely grateful for any help on this. Especially if someone can rewrite this for me!

 

Awaiting your answers,
