PHP , read XML file sent via cURL

问题

I have this code where I send data in an XML file via cURL to a press office. Now I want a feedback from the press that my orders are confirmed or done. I would like to have that in an XML file as well. I know how I send file via curl, now I would like to know how do i receive them so i can read out the data. Any suggestions are welcome.

this is how i send my XML:

$ch = curl_init();
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_URL, $incomm_prod_server);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER, 1);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_TIMEOUT, 4);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_POSTFIELDS, str_replace('{voucher_code}', $voucher_code, $xml_data));
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_SSL_VERIFYPEER, false);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_HTTPHEADER, array('Connection: close'));

So this is what i do on the ither side to get the XML:

  $ch = curl_init();
    curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER, 1);
    curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_CONNECTTIMEOUT, 5);
    $result_xml = simplexml_load_string(curl_exec($ch));

But i get bool(false) as result back, so there is no xml sent?

EDIT: I can access the data like this:

  if ( $_SERVER['REQUEST_METHOD'] === 'POST' ){
        $postText = file_get_contents('php://input');
    }
    die(var_dump($postText));

I edit one last time, maybe it will help others, i access now my xml this way:

            if ( $_SERVER['REQUEST_METHOD'] === 'POST' ){
            $postText = file_get_contents('php://input');
        }
        $xml = new SimpleXMLElement($postText);
        $packing_number = $xml->xpath('/feedback/packing_number');
        $packing_status = $xml->xpath('/feedback/packing_status');

this will give you an array back, you can access it like:

$packing_number[0]

or just loop trough it.

Ok so the code you posted above doesn't really send the XML file. All it does is place the content of that XML file into a $_POST variable attached to the request.

To receive data (on the other side), all you have to do is take a look into the $_POST variable and your XML data should be there. You'd setup a script and data would be posted to it (possibly using the same method you are using above), and the content will be accessible to you.
