Message with File Attached about php-mattermost-driver HOT 8 CLOSED

Hi,
sure, have you tried this?

upload a file (FileModel -> uploadFile)
create a post (PostModel -> createPost)

from php-mattermost-driver.

I haven't tried.
I guess it's not possible with your project?

from php-mattermost-driver.

Of course it's possible, this client works with all the mattermost endpoints. You simply need to work with the related Model.

Here is the list of the models supported.

For example to work with files:

$fileModel = $driver->getFileModel();

In your case you have to do something like this to upload a file:

$result = $driver->getFileModel()->uploadFile([
   //..
]);

and then use the PostModel to send a post with the file.

Anyway thanks to you I realized that the upload file method is missing 2 parameters, I'll fix it now.

Thanks!

Sorry, everythings fine, it should be enough to do:

$result = $driver->getFileModel()->uploadFile([
    'channel_id' => 'The ID of the channel that this file will be uploaded to',
    'filename' => 'The name of the file to be uploaded',
    'files' => 'A file to be uploaded',
]);

and then

$result = $driver->getPostModel()->createPost([
    'channel_id' => 'The channel ID to post in',
    'messages' => 'The message contents, can be formatted with Markdown',
    'file_ids' => 'A list of file IDs to associate with the post',
]);

Really, you're great! Thank you for helping.
Can you show a sample code in the README.md file? I believe that this will help other people.

Sure, I think it's useful, thanks for your suggestion!
Done :)

Hi. In the createpost syntax, i had to use 'message' instead of 'messages'.
Here is my working example:

`function upload_and_post_mm ($channel_id,$filename,$files,$messages) {
	include "../includes/mattermost-driver.php";	
	//Upload a file
	$result = $driver->getFileModel()->uploadFile([
		'channel_id' => $channel_id,																			/* 'The ID of the channel that this file will be uploaded to' */
		'filename' => $filename,																				/* 'The name of the file to be uploaded' */
		'files' => fopen($files, 'rb'),																			/* 'Path of the file to be uploaded' */
	]);

	$data 		= (array)json_decode($result->getBody(), true); 												// returns an array
	
	$file_ids	= $data['file_infos'][0]['id'];

	//Send a post with the file just uploaded
	$result = $driver->getPostModel()->createPost([
		'channel_id' => $channel_id,																			/* 'The channel ID to post in' */
		'message' => $messages,																				/* 'The message contents, can be formatted with Markdown' */
		'file_ids' => [$file_ids],																				/* 'A list of file IDs to associate with the post' */
	]);

	//Please read the FileModel class or refer to the api documentation for a complete list of available methods.
}
