Question

I need to know how to convert the code below to .php code (which I’m not good with)

the code:

curl -X POST -u "<application key>:<master secret>" \
-H "Content-Type: application/json" \
--data '{"device_tokens": ["<token>"], "aps": {"alert": "Hello!"}}' \
https://go.xxx.com/api/push/

EDIT: I TRIED this:

<? 
$msg = "hello from bob";

$token = "72F75474E3360C4C2F26C6AB16FC1E638FE55FCAC92EE4EB4C196123XXXXXXXX";

exec('curl -X POST -u "_rEUqtOtSmSVEBd8uMfdtg:vpB2wmR8Q_2HZ_Jmi37t-Q" \
    -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
    --data \'{"aps": {"alert": "'.$msg.'", "sound": "default"}, "device_tokens": ["'.$token.'"]}\' \
    https://go.xxx.com/api/push/
');
?>

You can try using PHP’s cURL functions to accomplish this. The following should achieve what you want (untested):

$handle = curl_init("https://go.xxx.com/api/push/");
curl_setopt($handle, CURLOPT_HTTPHEADER, array("Content-Type: application/json"));
curl_setopt($handle, CURLOPT_USERPWD, "<application key>:<master secret>");
curl_setopt($handle, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER, 1);
curl_setopt($handle, CURLOPT_POST, 1);
curl_setopt($handle, CURLOPT_POSTFIELDS, '{"device_tokens": ["<token>"], "aps": {"alert": "Hello!"}}')

$result = curl_exec($handle);
curl_close($handle);
