sms application please help

[Nairobi]

hey guys iam developing an sms app in Kenya and ive hit a dead end. The app is a keyword response app where users can get match fixtures updates, league results,live updates etc please help . when i test the app on the sanbox i keep getting errors. here is the project outline

 

The API

 

The API is currently very straightforward.  There is a single function you need to implement that our platform will call.

ETxtResponse ProcessEtxtRequest(ETxtRequest mo);

 

ETxtResponse and ETxtRequest both have the same properties

public Guid Id { get; set; }

public string Message { get; set; }

public string SessionState { get; set; }

public string CustomerState { get; set; }

 

Request:

 

Guid Id - you can use this to identify a unique session with a unique customer.

string Message - the text message the customer sent.

string SessionState - the transient session data retrieved by our platform and passed to you.

string CustomerState - the permanent customer data retrieved by our platform and passed to you.

 

Response:

 

Guid Id - Should be the same as the request you are responding to.

string Message - the text message you want us to send back to the customer.

string SessionState - the transient session data you want us to save.

string CustomerState - the permanent customer data you want us to save.

 

 

 

 

How you implement this method depends on the type of contract you choose. 

 

There are currently 3 options - XML, JSON and FORM POST.

 

 

XML SOAP

 

XMLWebService : IServerApi

 

This is an XML-based implementation which will pass the request in SOAP-XML and expect a response as SOAP-XML.

<system.serviceModel>

  <serviceHostingEnvironment aspNetCompatibilityEnabled="false" />

  <behaviors>

    <serviceBehaviors>

      <behavior name="FmnSoftBehavior" />

    </serviceBehaviors>

  </behaviors>

  <services>

    <service behaviorConfiguration="FmnSoftBehavior" name="FmnSoft.TestApiServices.Calculator">

      <endpoint address="" binding="basicHttpBinding" contract="IServerApi" />

    </service>

  </services>

</system.serviceModel>

[serviceContract]

public interface  IServerApi

{

  [OperationContract]

  ETxtResponse ProcessEtxtRequest(ETxtRequest mo);

}

 

 

 

 

 

JSON

 

JsonWebService : IJsonServerApi

This is a Javscript based implementation which will pass the request as a JSON encoded object and expect a response as a JSON encoded object.

<system.serviceModel>

  <serviceHostingEnvironment aspNetCompatibilityEnabled="false" />

  <behaviors>

    <serviceBehaviors>

      <behavior name="FmnSoftBehavior" />

    </serviceBehaviors>

    <endpointBehaviors>

      <behavior name="FmnSoftEndPoint">

        <webHttp/>

      </behavior>

    </endpointBehaviors>

  </behaviors>

  <services>

    <service name="FmnSoft.TestApiServices.JsonCalc" behaviorConfiguration=" FmnSoftBehavior ">

      <endpoint address="" behaviorConfiguration="FmnSoftEndPoint" binding="webHttpBinding"

          contract="IJsonServerApi" />

    </service>

  </services>

</system.serviceModel>

[serviceContract]

public interface IJsonServerApi

{

  [OperationContract]

  [WebInvoke(

    Method = "POST",

      UriTemplate = "/ProcessEtxtRequest",

      RequestFormat = WebMessageFormat.Json,

      ResponseFormat = WebMessageFormat.Json)]

  ETxtResponse ProcessEtxtRequest(ETxtRequest mo);

}

 

 

 

 

FORM POST

 

FormPost implementation : text/xml response.

 

This is a HTTP-POST implementation which will pass the request as formdata in a HTTP POST. It will expect the response content-type to be "text/xml" and the response itself to be serialised to XML.

POST http://yourserver/yourform.htm HTTP/1.1

Content-Type: application/x-www-form-urlencoded

Host: yourserver

Content-Length: 80

Expect: 100-continue

Connection: Keep-Alive

 

Id=d1a7ecd6-5fe5-4d5a-9d85-0c71aa1cbd04&Message=#c2&SessionState=&CustomerState=

 

The response you send back from this must be in XML format.

HTTP/1.1 200 OK

Content-Type: text/xml; charset=utf-8

Content-Length: 140

Connection: Close

 

<mt>

<id>44b497d0-b43e-40c1-b0c0-d8c190b1e38f</id>

<msg>Reply with the second number to add</msg>

<sessionstate>3</sessionstate>

<customerstate>Pippa</customerstate>

</mt>

 

 

 

 

...

 

 

And here is my code

 

<?php

 

$id = $_POST["Id"];

$sessionstate = $_POST["SessionState"];

$customerstate = $_POST["CustomerState"];

$message = $_POST["Message"];

            if ($message == “#ligi”){

                          $sessionState“”;

                          $msg=“ 1] match fixture <br /> 2] match results<br /> 3]leasgue standings<br /> 4]kpl news<br /> 5]Ongoing Live results”;

              }

 

            if ($message == “#1”){

                          $sessionState“”;

                          $msg=“match fixtures <br />

                      13:00hrs<br />

        KCB vs Karuturi<br /> 15:00hrs<br />  Oserian vs Muhoroni<br />Mathare vs Western<br /> AFC vs Tusker ”;

            }

            if ($message == “#2”){

                          $sessionState“”;

                          $msg=“ match results<br /> 15-04-2012<br />Tusker 2 – 2 Mathare<br />Chemelil 1 – 0KCB<br />

      Gor Mahia 1 – 0 sofapaka<br /> City Stars 0 – 0 Ulinzi Stars”;

            }

          if ($message = “#3”){

                          $sessionState“”;

                          $msg=“ leasgue standings <br /> As of 15-04-2012<br />AFC:26pts<br /> Sofapaka:20pts<br />Chemelil:20pts<br /> Tusker:19pts<br /> Thika United:14pts<br /> Western Stima:14pts<br />Muhoroni:14pts”);

            }

          if ($message ==“#4”){

                          $sessionState“”;

                          $msg=“kpl news<br /> 15-04-2012<br />Gor mahia gets banned for 3 matches by premier league,afc sign in congolese striker atwete”;

            }

          if ($message == “#5”){

                          $sessionState“”;

                          $msg=“Ongoing Live results <br />mathare o gormahia o,ulinzi 4 tusker 3”;

}

         

}

header('Content-type: text/xml');

header('Character-encod ing: utf-8');

$out = '<xml><mt id="123456"><msg>Hello World</msg><sessionstate>session1</sessionstate><customerstate>customer1</customerstates></mt></xml>';

echo $out;

?>

what is the error you're getting?

 

[Edited This Block Out -- I overlooked the last block of code]

 

The JSON Response doesn't look much like JSON, although that really doesn't matter too much..

 

Please respond with the PHP Error Message, and I'd be happy to assist you!
