function clients_get_connection in Web Service Clients 6.2

Same name and namespace in other branches

1. 7 clients.module \clients_get_connection()

Load a connection object by id, which can then be used to make method calls.

This is mostly kept here for backwards compatibility with dependent modules which I don't have time to fix right now; however it does mean that those modules can't use connections stored in code (as they have no cid).

Usage: $client = clients_get_connection($cid); $client->callMethod('node.load', array(1));

Parameters

$cid: The id of a connection.

File

./clients.module, line 277

Clients module provides a UI, storage, and an API for handling connections to remote webservices, including those provided by Services module on other Drupal sites.

Code

function clients_get_connection($cid) {
  ctools_include('export');
  $result = ctools_export_load_object('clients_connections', 'conditions', array(
    'cid' => $cid,
  ));
  if (count($result)) {

    // This is sort of going round the houses to get the right object class but it's simple.
    $connection = array_pop($result);
    $connection = clients_connection_load($connection->name);
  }
  return $connection;
}
