[pritaeas]

Did you register it with goo.gl?

[UK-1991]

yes and got an api key as wel but confused really how do i integrate it in my action or form

[UK-1991]

Here is my revised code

Form

<div class="txtbox">
<form method="POST" action="includes/linkshort.php" id="shortener" >
<input type="text" name="url" id="longurl" class="txt-box" size="45" placeholder="Enter URL To Shorten..."/>
<input type="submit" value="Shorten" class="btn" name="submit" />
</form>

<?php
    session_start();

    $url = $_POST['url'];
    $key = 'https://www.googleapis.com/urlshortener/v1/url';
    $googer = new URLAPI($key);

    $shortDWName = $googer->shorten($url);
    echo $shortDWName;

    class UrlApi {

        function URLAPI($key,$apiUR = 'https://www.googleapis.com/urlshortener/v1/url?key=AIzaSyC-MuCl9FiuXwhrEB1h_kVByBDkryg_zAM') {
            $this->apiURL = $apiURL.'?key='.$key;
        }

        function shorten($url) {
            $response = $this->send($url);
            return isset($response['id']) ? $response['id'] : false;
        }

        function send($url,$shorten = true) {
            $ch = curl_init();
            if($shorten) {
                curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_URL, $this->apiURL);
                curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_POST, 1);
                curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_POSTFIELDS, json_encode(array("longUrl"=>$url)));
                curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_HTTPHEADER, array("Content-Type: application/json"));
            }
            else {
                curl_setopt($ch,CURLOPT_URL,$this->apiURL.'&shortUrl='.$url);
            }

            curl_setopt($ch,CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER,1);

            $result = curl_exec($ch);

            curl_close($ch);

            return json_decode($result,true);
        }       
    }

    header("Location: ../coupon.php?id=" . $id . "&code=" . $_SESSION['code']);
?>

That is what you should send. Sample on SO.

[UK-1991]

<?php
    session_start();

    $url = $_POST['url'];

    $longUrl = 'http://www.mysite.com/$url';

    // Get API key from : http://code.google.com/apis/console/
    $apiKey = 'mykeyapi';

    $postData = array('longUrl' => $longUrl, 'key' => $apiKey);
    $jsonData = json_encode($postData);

    $curlObj = curl_init();

    curl_setopt($curlObj, CURLOPT_URL, 'https://www.googleapis.com/urlshortener/v1/url');
    curl_setopt($curlObj, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER, 1);
    curl_setopt($curlObj, CURLOPT_SSL_VERIFYPEER, 0);
    curl_setopt($curlObj, CURLOPT_HEADER, 0);
    curl_setopt($curlObj, CURLOPT_HTTPHEADER, array('Content-type:application/json'));
    curl_setopt($curlObj, CURLOPT_POST, 1);
    curl_setopt($curlObj, CURLOPT_POSTFIELDS, $jsonData);

    $response = curl_exec($curlObj);

    // Change the response json string to object
    $json = json_decode($response);

    curl_close($curlObj);

    $shortLink = get_object_vars($json);
    echo "Shortened URL is: ".$shortLink['id'];
    //header("Location: ../coupon.php?id=" . $id . "&code=" . $_SESSION['code']);
?>

this code is not working either

Notice: Undefined index: id in C:\wamp\www\webapp\includes\linkshort.php on line 32

What does not work? Check for response errors.

Notice: Trying to get property of non-object in C:\wamp\www\webapp\includes\linkshort.php on line 29
Call Stack

[pritaeas]

That's just a notice, most likely because the call fails. I repeat, add error checking.

I have tried link with another website when I tried to coonect with another website in google it was working but wi this t i not working the website is po.st

i am getting this error

Notice: Undefined property: stdClass::$id in C:\wamp\www\webapp\includes\linkshort.php on line 29

this is my code

    session_start();

    $url    = $_POST['url'];
    $idnew  = $_GET['id']; 
    $longUrl = $url;

    $apiKey = 'myApi';

    $postData = array('longUrl' => $longUrl, 'key' => $apiKey);
    $jsonData = json_encode($postData);

    $curlObj = curl_init();

    curl_setopt($curlObj, CURLOPT_URL, 'http://po.st/api/shorten?apiKey='.$apiKey);
    curl_setopt($curlObj, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER, 1);
    curl_setopt($curlObj, CURLOPT_SSL_VERIFYPEER, 0);
    curl_setopt($curlObj, CURLOPT_HEADER, 0);
    curl_setopt($curlObj, CURLOPT_HTTPHEADER, array('Content-type:application/json'));
    curl_setopt($curlObj, CURLOPT_POST, 1);
    curl_setopt($curlObj, CURLOPT_POSTFIELDS, $jsonData);

    $response = curl_exec($curlObj);

    $json = json_decode($response);

    curl_close($curlObj);

    $geturl = $json->id;

    echo 'Shortened URL is: '.$geturl;

[pritaeas]

You still haven't added any error checking. You need to check the curl response, because apparently it is not returning an object with an id.

[UK-1991]

Okay can you please let me know how to check the error please

[pritaeas]

http://php.net/manual/en/function.curl-error.php

If curl_exec returns false, find out why by using the above function.

{"status_txt":"AUTH_ERROR","status_code":41}

[pritaeas]

Look it up in the documentation for the API you use.

Hello,

getting the response correctly but having some error

Undefined property: stdClass::$id in

$curlObj = curl_init();

    curl_setopt($curlObj, CURLOPT_URL, 'http://po.st/api/shorten?longUrl=http%3A%2F%2F'.$longUrl.'%2F&apiKey='.$apiKey);
    curl_setopt($curlObj, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER, 1);
    curl_setopt($curlObj, CURLOPT_SSL_VERIFYPEER, 0);
    curl_setopt($curlObj, CURLOPT_HEADER, 0);
    curl_setopt($curlObj, CURLOPT_HTTPHEADER, array('Content-type:application/json'));
    curl_setopt($curlObj, CURLOPT_POST, 1);
    curl_setopt($curlObj, CURLOPT_POSTFIELDS, $jsonData);

    $response = curl_exec($curlObj);

    $json = json_decode($response);

    curl_close($curlObj);

    print_r($geturl = $json->id);

    echo 'Shortened URL is: '. $geturl;

[UK-1991]

print_r($json = json_decode($response));

response

stdClass Object ( [long_url] => http://funmaza.com/ [hash] => qZ0cKy [short_url] => http://selv.co/qZ0cKy [new_hash] => 0 [alt_hashes] => Array ( ) [status_txt] => OK [status_code] => 0 )

[pritaeas]

There is no id, so you cannot use it.

Got it done with the solution now thank you
