# Fix #39247: Fix phan notices by reorganising code

Phan typing analysis was disturbed by conditional assignment to array fields of array items.

This reorganises the the code and uses a foreach and a loop item by reference.
The result array is filtered after the initial loop to find matching ECM items.

Not that this does not fix an unreported issue when paging is applied for filtered items
(paging is applied on the full list, not the filtered items and may result in small(er)
or empty pages).

* Qual: Fix Phan notices

# Qual: Fix Phan notices

- The page_count value was simply ceil(...) which is typed float, now casting to int.
- Add missing properties share and agenda_id to EcmFilesLine

API REST

Integrate your ERP with any other applications using Dolibarr APIs

This module provides the service to make Dolibarr a server of REST Web Services. It depends on external library Restler.

Extract any data or push insert, update or delete record using our new REST APIs. Using standard HTTP and Json format, it is compatible with any language (PHP, Java, Ruby, Python, C#, C++, JavaScript, JQuery, Basic, ...). Use the embedded APIs explorer tool to test APIs or get generated URLs to use in your own code.

Dolibarr API explorer

Explore the APIs

You can explore all available APIs by using the API explorer : yourdolibarr.tld/api/index.php/explorer (replace yourdolibarr.tld by real hostname of your Dolibarr installation)

Access to an API

Warning : access to any API should (or better : must!) be secured with SSL connection

To access to the API you need a token to identify. Only this token will allow to access API with. The token is dedicated to a user and it must be put into requests as DOLAPIKEY parameter in HTTP header (or among URL parameters, but this is less secured).

To get a token you can:

  • Edit the user card to set the value of token. Each user can have a different token.
  • or Call the login API with login and password. This will return the value of token for the user used to login.

Then call other services with

https://yourdolibarr.tld/mydolibarr/api/index.php/otherservice?DOLAPIKEY=api_key

Develop an API

The API uses Lucarast Restler framework. Please check documentation https://www.luracast.com/products/restler and examples https://restler3.luracast.com/examples/index.html

Github contains also useful information : https://github.com/Luracast/Restler

To implement it into Dolibarr, you need to create a specific class for object we want to use. A skeleton file is available into /modulebuilder/class directory : api_mymodule_class.class.php The API class file must be put into object class directory, with specific file name. By example, API class file for 'myobject' must be put as : /htdocs/myobject/class/api_myobject.class.php. Class must be named MyobjectApi.

If a module provide several object, use a different name for 'myobject' and put the file into the same directory.

Define url for methods

It is possible to specify url for API methods by simply use the PHPDoc tag @url. See examples :

/**
* List contacts
* 
* Get a list of contacts
*
* @url	GET /contact/list
* @url	GET /contact/list/{socid}
* @url	GET	/thirdparty/{socid}/contacts
* [...]

Other Annotations Other annotations are used, you are encouraged to read them : https://github.com/Luracast/Restler/blob/master/ANNOTATIONS.md

PHPDoc tags can also be used to specify variables information for API. Again, rtfm : https://github.com/Luracast/Restler/blob/master/PARAM.md
