Problem Description
I want so connect an external website with a moodle-system. I've already set up the webService and created a token to get access.
I've followed http://www.rumours.co.nz/manuals/using_moodle_web_services.htm set up but in contrast i wanted to realise the connection via REST as in https://github.com/moodlehq/sample-ws-clients/find/master
My approach is to have a moodle class which will handle the data exchange. In first place i just wanted to try to create some new hard coded Users via the webService but it fails with the Moodle-Response:
"invalidrecord Can not find data record in database table external_functions. "
Which seems to me as if i the call was successfully but moodle has a problem to find the "core_user_create_users" function. I've checked the local moodle Database and in the table external_functions is an entry for "core_user_create_users" so i'm kind of confused where moodle doesn't know what to do.
Thats my class:
require_once (DOCUMENT_ROOT.'/tcm/api/moodle/curl.php');
class Moodle {
private $token;
private $domainName; // 'local.moodle.dev';
private $serverUrl;
public function __construct($token, $domainName) {
$this->token = $token;
$this->domainName = $domainName;
$this->serverUrl = $this->domainName . '/webservice/rest/server.php' . '?wstoken=' . $this->token;
echo "initialize Service: $this->serverUrl </br>";
}
public function createUser() {
$functionName = 'core_user_create_users';
/// PARAMETERS - NEED TO BE CHANGED IF YOU CALL A DIFFERENT FUNCTION
$user1 = new stdClass();
$user1->username = 'testusername1';
$user1->password = 'testpassword1';
$user1->firstname = 'testfirstname1';
$user1->lastname = 'testlastname1';
$user1->email = 'testemail1@moodle.com';
$user1->auth = 'manual';
$user1->idnumber = 'testidnumber1';
$user1->lang = 'en';
$user1->theme = 'standard';
$user1->timezone = '-12.5';
$user1->mailformat = 0;
$user1->description = 'Hello World!';
$user1->city = 'testcity1';
$user1->country = 'au';
$preferencename1 = 'preference1';
$preferencename2 = 'preference2';
$user1->preferences = array(
array('type' => $preferencename1, 'value' => 'preferencevalue1'),
array('type' => $preferencename2, 'value' => 'preferencevalue2')...
