Utlilze a Apex Webservice in php

I was looking to get some report id in my php code so found a workaround for that. we can make a Apex webservice method and call that in php. So below is the step by step process to do that.
1.) Make a apex webservice class and a method.
To Create a class :- Develop| Apex Classes| New
Here we are making a service to get ReportID for a given report name

global class reportsManager{

WebService static string FindReport(string ReportName)
{
List reports = new list([Select Id, Name from Report Where Name = :ReportName]);
if (reports == null || reports.size() == 0) return null;

return reports[0].Id 
}
}

2.) Download the WSDL xml for above class and save it in a source folder.
To Download WSDL :-   Develop| Apex Classes| WSDL(Save the file)

3.)Now in your php code make a function as follows.
a.) Get connection to your org  ReferIntegration Blog.
$crmHandle = $this->getConnection()

b.)$sfdc = new SforcePartnerClient();// Making object of toolkit class

c.)Create a variable for your class name mine is "reportManager"
define ("_WS_NAMESPACE_", 'http://soap.sforce.com/schemas/class/reportsManager');

d.)Set headers of your request
$session=array("sessionId" => $_SESSION['sessionId']);
$sforce_header = new SoapHeader(_WS_NAMESPACE_, "SessionHeader",$session);

e.) Create a client of your webservice method
$client = new SoapClient('includes/soapclient/reportsManager.wsdl.xml');

f.)Set Parameters for your sebservice method mine takes a single param that is report name
$wsParams=array('ReportName'=>'test');

g.)Time to call the webservice method
$response = $client->FindReport($wsParams);
var_dump($response);

Bingo you have your result in $response

There has always been a need to have a calendar component for visualforce page this kind of component can be used in events booking,events calendar,scheduling requirements and all the places where we need to show events by dates. This can be easily implemented using jquery,fullcalendar plugin and json in apex. So what we need here is 1.) Fullcalandar plugin  Download 2.) A custom object with start dates and end dates for events 3.) Apex class to pull data from object and convert that into json using json.serailze First we have to upload the fullcalendar lib to static resource and then we have to create a visualforce page with below code. The important thing is "JSONOFLIST" which is just json created from list of records by using JSONOFLIST = JSON.serialize(LIST OF SOBJECT); It will give you a calendar with items highlited on page Source : http://www.saasanalogy.com/custom-calendar-on-visualforce-page/

Salesforce integration Pattern: Remote Process Invocation—Request and Reply

Image
Problem When an event occurs in Salesforce, how do you initiate a process in a remote system, pass the required information to that process, receive a response from the remote system, and then use that response data to make updates within Salesforce? Considerations Does the call to the remote system require Salesforce to wait for a response before continuing processing? Is the call to the remote system a synchronous request-reply or an asynchronous request? If the call to the remote system is synchronous, does Salesforce have to process the response as part of the same transaction as the initial call? Is the message size small or large? Is the integration based on the occurrence of a specific event, such as a button click in the Salesforce user interface, or DML-based events? Solution The following table contains solutions to this integration problem. Solution Fit Comments A custom Visualforce page or button initiates an Apex SOAP callout in a ...

Salesforce.com: Scheduled Apex

The Apex Scheduler lets you delay execution so that you can run Apex classes at a specified time. This is ideal for daily or weekly maintenance tasks using Batch Apex. To take advantage of the scheduler, write an Apex class that implements the Schedulable interface, and then schedule it for execution on a specific schedule. Scheduled Apex Syntax To invoke Apex classes to run at specific times, first implement the Schedulable interface for the class. Then, schedule an instance of the class to run at a specific time using the System.schedule method. global class SomeClass implements Schedulable { global void execute(SchedulableContext ctx) { // awesome code here } } The class implements the Schedulable interface and must implement the only method that this interface contains, which is the execute method. The parameter of this method is a SchedulableContext object. After a class has been scheduled, a CronTrigger object is created that represents the scheduled job. It p...
