• QuickBooks for WINDOWS quick-start with PHP

example_ipp_ids_6.php

 load($the_username, $the_tenant);

// Tell the framework to load some data from the OAuth store
$IPP->authMode(
    QuickBooks_IPP::AUTHMODE_OAUTH, 
    $the_username, 
    $creds);

// Print the credentials we're using
//print_r($creds);

// This is our current realm
$realm = $creds['qb_realm'];

// Load the OAuth information from the database
if ($Context = $IPP->context())
{
    // Set the DBID
    $IPP->dbid($Context, 'something');

    // Set the IPP flavor
    $IPP->flavor($creds['qb_flavor']);

    // Get the base URL if it's QBO
    if ($creds['qb_flavor'] == QuickBooks_IPP_IDS::FLAVOR_ONLINE)
    {
        $IPP->baseURL($IPP->getBaseURL($Context, $realm));
    }

    print('Base URL is [' . $IPP->baseURL() . ']' . "\n\n");

    $CustomerService = new QuickBooks_IPP_Service_Customer();

    $Customer = new QuickBooks_IPP_Object_Customer();
    $Customer->setName('Willy Wonka #' . mt_rand(0, 1000));
    $Customer->setGivenName('Willy');
    $Customer->setFamilyName('Wonka');

    $resp = $CustomerService->add($Context, $realm, $Customer);

    print_r($Customer);
    print('New customer is [' . $resp . ']' . "\n\n");

    print("\n\n\n\n");
    print('Request [' . $IPP->lastRequest() . ']');
    print("\n\n\n\n");
    print('Response [' . $IPP->lastResponse() . ']');
    print("\n\n\n\n");
}
else
{
    die('Unable to load a context...?');
}
