Seafile & PHP

[Michelangelo Turillo]

Hi Guys,

I am a Zend Framework developer and I am trying to create a module for the Seafile Service for the community. I need to know why I get the error:

 {"detail": "You do not have permission to perform this action."}

I have called the Url as mentioned in the WebApi documentation https://github.com/haiwen/seafile/wiki/Seafile-web-API#wiki-new-directory but I get that error.

This is a simple php code to describe my action:

$postData = array('operation' => 'mkdir', 'repo-id' => $repoid, 'token' => self::$token, 'p' => $remoteDir);
$data = self::request ( "$url/api2/repos/$repoid/dir/", true, $postData );

 

 So the result is that the $data variable is :  {"detail": "You do not have permission to perform this action."}

  'p' => '/documents/2013/Invoices/2/May/',
)

Where is the error?

thanks

I created a quick and dirty version of a file upload using the RestCurlClient Class from davidmpaz ( https://github.com/davidmpaz/rest-curlclient-php/blob/master/rest_curl_client.php ) a while ago...

Should be almost self explaining:

<?php
error_reporting(E_ALL);
ini_set('display_errors', 1);
require_once(dirname(__FILE__).DIRECTORY_SEPARATOR.'rest_curl_client.php');
$c = new RestCurlClient();
$json_auth_token = json_decode($c->post('http://<your_url>:8000/api2/auth-token/',
array('username'=>'m...@email.com', 'password'=>'test123')));
echo 'Token: <pre>';
print_r($json_auth_token);
$token = (string)$json_auth_token->token;
$json_repos = json_decode($c->get('http://<your_url>:8000/api2/repos/', array(CURLOPT_HTTPHEADER=>array('Authorization: Token '.$token))
));
echo '</pre>Repos:<pre>';
print_r($json_repos);

$upload_link = json_decode($c->get('http://<your_url>:8000/api2/repos/'.$json_repos[0]->id.'/upload-link/', array(CURLOPT_HTTPHEADER=>array('Authorization: Token '.$token))
));
echo '</pre>Upload Link:<pre>';
var_dump($upload_link);
$uploadhash = $c->post($upload_link, array('file'=>new CurlFile(dirname(__FILE__).DIRECTORY_SEPARATOR.'test.php', 'text/plain', 'test.php'), 'filename'=>'test.php', 'parent_dir'=>'/'), array(CURLOPT_HTTPHEADER=>array('Authorization: Token '.$token, 'Expect:')));

echo '</pre>Upload hash:<pre>';
print_r($uploadhash);

?> 

I hope this helps.

Hi Tom,

thanks for your code. I will test this evening.

Hi Tom,

I am trying to understand where you create the directory in your code. Where is the command to create the directory in the Seafile server?

thanks

<?php
error_reporting(E_ALL);
ini_set('display_errors', 1);
require_once(dirname(__FILE__).DIRECTORY_SEPARATOR.'rest_curl_client.php');

print_r($json_auth_token);

$upload_link = json_decode($c->get('http://<your_url>:8000/api2/repos/'.$json_repos[0]->id.'/upload-link/', array(CURLOPT_HTTPHEADER=>array('Authorization: Token '.$token))

Try this one to create a directory:

$dirpath = '/your_directory_name';

$json_auth_token = json_decode($c->post('http://<your_url>:8000/api2/repos/'.$json_repos[0]->id.'/dir/?p='.$dirpath,

array(CURLOPT_HTTPHEADER=>array('Authorization: Token '.$token), CURLOPT_POSTFIELDS => serialize(array('operation'=>'mkdir')))));

I think the main problem you have with your code is, that you're missing to send the Token using the Authorization Header.

[Tom C.]

Sorry there was an error in the code. This is the fixed one, based on the RestCurlClient Class:

$dirpath = '/your_directory_name';
$data = json_decode($c->post('http://<your_url>:8000/api2/repos/'.$json_repos[0]->id.'/dir/?p='.$dirpath,
array('operation'=>'mkdir'), array(CURLOPT_HTTPHEADER=>array('Authorization: Token '.$token))));

So, first create the url you want to post to e.g.

http://<your_url>:8000/api2/repos/<repo-id>/dir/?p=/<your_new_directory_name>

Then set the post parameter key 'operation' with value 'mkdir'.

Afterwards add the entry 'Authorization: Token <your_auth_token>' to the headers being sent. <- This step is mandatory for every request!

Execute the POST request.

If everything goes well, you should receive the message 'success' from the api.
