SDK and Web Services

asked on February 13, 2014

Is there anyone using UNIX to connect to their servers using SOAP/Webservices or PHP RESTful or JSON API formats?

 

Everything I see in here references Windows. We need to connect to the Laserfiche server from our unix servers and prefer not to use Java

Yes, using the Laserfiche SDK, web services can be created that can talk to UNIX based systems. We taught a course on creating web services at the Laserfiche Empower conference this past January; the PowerPoint presentation and sample code can be downloaded from the Support Site. The package includes code for a web service built in Visual Studio and the code for a website that communicates with said web service. Note that the web service was built in C# and hosted in IIS, but we include COM libraries in our SDK that can be used to build a web service that can be hosted on another platform.

Zach, 

 

this response apparently wasn't what they were looking for.  They are looking for a php/soap sample code.  Any chance you can help here?

If you need to host the web service on Unix server, our Java SDK (JRA) is your only option.  Our other libraries (LFSO and RA) are Windows-only.  You should be aware that JRA is not as fully-featured, so check out its capabilities before you commit to using it.  Of course the web service client can be anything that understands SOAP (or whichever protocol you decide to use).

One of the main benefits of web services are that they support standard protocols and so it doesn't really matter what kind of server is hosting them.  So it would be helpful if you could go into more detail about what the requirements are and why e.g. Windows is not an option.

I really don't understand a lot of the back and forth, how can I arrange a conversation between presales and the customer?  I am probably not communicating his requirements properly due to my limited understanding.
