See example.php for another example.

4.Notes

• The is_valid_id() function may need to modify for different versions of SugarCRM.
• Different versions of SugarCRM have different ID formats.

5.get_note_attachment() Example

This example outputs the contents of a note's attachment, given the note ID. Assumes $note_id contains the ID of the note you wish to modify.

$sugar = new \Asakusuma\SugarWrapper\Rest;

$sugar->setUrl('https://sugarcrm/service/v2/rest.php');
$sugar->setUsername('user');
$sugar->setPassword('password');

$sugar->connect();

$result = $sugar->get_note_attachment($note_id);
$filename = $result['note_attachment']['filename'];
$file = $result['note_attachment']['file'];

$file = base64_decode($file);
header("Cache-Control: no-cache private");
header("Content-Description: File Transfer");
header('Content-disposition: attachment; filename='.$filename);
header("Content-Type: application/vnd.ms-excel");
header("Content-Transfer-Encoding: binary");
header('Content-Length: '. strlen($file));
echo $file;
exit;

6.set_note_attachment() Example

This example illustrates how to set a note's attachment from an html form. Assumes $note_id contains the ID of the note you wish to modify.

HTML Code

<form method="post" action="example.php" enctype="multipart/form-data">
	<input name="note_file" type="file" />
	<input type="submit" value="Go" />
</form>

PHP Code (example.php)

$sugar = new \Asakusuma\SugarWrapper\Rest;

$sugar->setUrl('https://sugarcrm/service/v2/rest.php');
$sugar->setUsername('user');
$sugar->setPassword('password');

$sugar->connect();

if ($_FILES["note_file"]["error"] > 0) {
	// Error: $_FILES["file"]["error"]
} else if(isset($_FILES['note_file']['tmp_name']) && $_FILES['note_file']['tmp_name']!="") {
	$handle = fopen($_FILES['note_file']['tmp_name'], "rb");
	$filename = $_FILES['note_file']['name'];
	$contents = fread($handle, filesize($_FILES['note_file']['tmp_name']));
	$binary = base64_encode($contents);
	$file_results = $sugar->set_note_attachment($note_id,$binary,$filename);
}

7.get_available_modules() Example

This example illustrates how to get the available modules in Sugar. All of them. This is a handy function to use when building future proof sugarcrm plugins.

PHP Code (example.php)

$sugar = new \Asakusuma\SugarWrapper\Rest;
$modules = $sugar->get_available_modules();

BAM! Now loop through the array that was returned and stored in $modules. You could use this to display a dropdown in the admin panel that displays all modules a user would want to connect your sugarcrm plugin to.
