Arbtrader Posted March 2, 2015 Share Posted March 2, 2015 I have managed to figure out by using filters from my CPanel maybe the best method to PIPE email content to text file . But I have an issue on getting this data parsed and sent data base. Below is an example of an email that send each morning and I need this figure imported to my database I was thinking of using a PHP script to carry out the parsing to XML and then importing data to DATABASE. I was going to use a custom pearl script with AWK But sometimes there will be less lines then other days under each of the 2 headers. Which is why im going for a direct PHP method. Is anyone able to help me set this up . 1.Extract email body to file. 2.convert to XML 3.Import to sql database. Here is the content of the email below ( max lines under header of the 2 headers is " New pending orders Pair | Direction | Entry | SL | TP | Expiration USDCHF | BUYSTOP | 0.9513 | 0.9365 | 0.9581 | 2015.02.26 23:59 USDCAD | BUYSTOP | 1.2501 | 1.2300 | 1.2638 | 2015.02.26 23:59 EURUSD | SELLSTOP | 1.1330 | 1.1488 | 1.1222 | 2015.02.26 23:59 EURJPY | SELLSTOP | 134.52 | 136.22 | 133.42 | 2015.02.26 23:59 Total Pending Orders = 4 Current Open positions Pair | Direction | Entry | SL | TP USDJPY | BUY | 119.40 | 118.11 | 120.66 USDCHF | BUY | 0.9513 | 0.9365 | 0.9617 USDCAD | BUY | 1.2501 | 1.2349 | 1.2645 GBPJPY | BUY | 183.72 | 182.60 | 186.32 EURJPY | SELL | 134.52 | 135.26 | 132.74 Total Open Positions = 5 " Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/295012-need-php-to-convert-email-to-xml-and-upload-to-sql-data-base/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
