Introduction¶

Users manual¶

The remoting gateway URL is: http://yoursite.com/?type=263 ). You can make them more speakable when set-up ReaURL to make them sth like http://yoursite.com/gateway.flash – example code included. See administration section.

I suppose that you known Flash Remoting, Flash, Action Script – so install this plugin (details in Administration section), make your own services, enter gateway address in flash application and use them.

This extensions works as USER_INT. So your services will work in a global TYPO3 namespace. You can use $GLOBALS[TSFE], $GLOBALS[TYPO3_DB] just like in your standard Typo3 plugin. An example method getFEUserObj included, see it in action below.

ServiceBrowser in TYPO3 BE. The method getFEUserObj returns overall TSFE->fe_user object – you probably known it. Nice, isn't it?

Adminstration¶

How to install plugin?

Download ryzy_flash_rm and install them from EM.

You must make folder fileadmin/flash/services and copy to them everything from ryzy_flash_rm/res/*. You should have fileadmin/flash/services/amfphp and fileadmin/flash/services/TestService.php after that.

When you type in browser http://yoursite/?type=263 you should see blank, white page (no errors etc)

Go to AMFPHP remoting browser, From 2.0.3 version there's a back-end module called Flash Remoting in Admin Tool section (thanks to Gijs Epping!). As always, it's also located at http://yoursite/typo3conf/ext/ryzy_flash_rm/amfphp2/browser/ . You see nice flash interface. At the first time you'll be asked at remoting gateway url. You must change the default to http://yoursite/?type=263 . Otherwise the default AMFPHP gateway will be used (not integrated with Typo3).

Disable sqlDebug to make sure no well-known cache_pagesection sql error occurred (insert $TYPO3_CONF_VARS['SYS']['sqlDebug'] = '0'; in typo3conf/localconf.php).

You should see TestService (see previous screenshots). Make your first call and enjoy it! ;)

Configuration¶

You can change the default service path in ryzy_flash_rm/amfphp/globals.php

Known problems¶

When you will be working with flash remoting, many errors can occurred and they're heavy to debug. Install Charles Web Debugging Proxy ( http://www.xk72.com/charles/ ) or ServiceCapture ( http://kevinlangdon.com/serviceCapture/ ) to debug remoting net traffic. When you have problem like this:

you will see something like this in Chales' response tab:

Switch to Text or Hex tab (bottom) and you'll know everything.

To-Do list¶

- A wish list of things you want to add or fix. This includes smaller problems/bugs which are best described as a todo item.

- Visions for what the extension could become with more development.
