How can I use PHP to call the Rightscale management API?

rs-api-creds.php

<?php

$rs_api = array(
	'version' => '1.0',
	'account_id' => 1234,
	'username' => "foo@bar.suf",
	'password' => "ubersecurepassword",
	'cookie_file' => '/tmp/rs_api_cookie.txt',
	//'cookie_file' => tempnam("/tmp", "rs_api"),
);

$rs_api['url'] = "https://my.rightscale.com/api/acct/".$rs_api['account_id'];

?>

This is the common credentials file to include with any of your PHP scripts that call the API. Ensure you have substituted the example account_id, username and password.

rs-login.php

<?php

include 'rs-api-creds.php';

$rs_api['login_url'] = $rs_api['url']."/login?api_version=".$rs_api['version'];

$ch = curl_init($rs_api['login_url']);

curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_COOKIEJAR, $rs_api['cookie_file']);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_USERPWD,$rs_api['username'].':'.$rs_api['password']);

curl_exec($ch);
curl_close($ch);

?>

rs-get-servers.php

<?php

include 'rs-api-creds.php';

$url = $rs_api['url']."/servers?api_version=".$rs_api['version'];

$ch = curl_init($url);

curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_COOKIEFILE, $rs_api['cookie_file']);

$output = curl_exec($ch);
curl_close($ch);

echo $output;

?>
