Error messages for abnormal feeds in FeedBurner API and cURL functions

I used FeedBurner API in my last project (FeedRoll). I needed to know error number for abnormal feeds.  FeedBurner API returns below error numbers:

1: Feed Not Found
2: This feed does not permit Awareness API access
5: Missing required parameter (URI)
6: Malformed parameter (DATES)

I used cURL (Client URL Library Functions) for Perform a cURL session and next Parsed XML via SimpleXML Class. But didn’t available data for feed that didn’t permit Awareness API access. Because cURL was Unauthorized.
In this case we can use HTTP code that corresponding to ‘http_code’ index of the array returned by curl_getinfo. I write below code for it:

< ?php
$twodayago = date('Y-m-d', strtotime('-2 days', time()));
$onedayago = date('Y-m-d', strtotime('-1 days', time()));
$today = date('Y-m-d');

$api = "https://feedburner.google.com/api/awareness/1.0/GetFeedData?uri=$feedid&dates=$twodayago,$onedayago";

//Initialize a cURL session
$ch = curl_init();
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER, 1);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_URL, $api);
$data = curl_exec($ch);
$base_code = curl_getinfo($ch);
curl_close($ch);

if ($base_code['http_code']=='401'){
	$burner_count_circulation = 'This feed does not permit Awareness API access';
	$burner_date = $today;
} else {

	$xml = new SimpleXMLElement($data); //Parse XML via SimpleXML Class
	$bis = $xml->attributes();  //Bis Contain first attribute, It usually is ok or fail in FeedBurner

	if ($bis=='ok'){
		foreach ($xml->feed as $feed) {
			if ($feed->entry[1]['circulation']=='0'){
				$burner_count_circulation = $feed->entry[0]['circulation'];
				$burner_date  =  $feed->entry[0]['date'];
			} else {
				$burner_count_circulation = $feed->entry[1]['circulation'];
				$burner_date  =  $feed->entry[1]['date'];
			}
		}
	}

	if ($bis=='fail'){
		switch ($xml->err['code']) {
			case 1:
				$burner_count_circulation = 'Feed Not Found';
				break;
			case 5:
				$burner_count_circulation = 'Missing required parameter (URI)';
				break;
			case 6:
				$burner_count_circulation = 'Malformed parameter (DATES)';
				break;
		}
		$burner_date = $today;
	}

}

echo $burner_count_circulation.' @ '.$burner_date;
 ?>

Rainy day

It is raining slightly, which must be a disappointment to the ladies who are probably wearing most beautiful dresses underneath their mackintoshes. However a strong wind is blowing and perhaps it will clear later in the afternoon.

I am reading Basic econometrics for examination. My next is appraisal economic plans and at last will be industrial economic. They are important and essential lessons in industrial economic field. I must get ready in one week! It is next to impossible…

Tired

This days I am a little tired and impatient.
I will write here coming soon…

Irrelevant Bookmarks

I think one of the foundation web 2.0 properties is tagging. Tags play important role in web pages. But most users don’t know usage in proper method. For example inputting amiss values such as irrelevant characters or words in tags, title and description fields when uploading photos in flickr.

As far as I can see, filling fields with accurate information may be help to visitors. It’s enough to put you in exchange users than come from search engines. But I know not neither can I guess than what we are not more careful?!

CSS Support is Poor in RSS Feed Readers

Once upon a time, different Web browsers supported different forms of HTML markup or “tags.” It was difficult or impossible to make a Web site look good in different browsers. Beginning a few years ago, fortunately, browsers started adopting some common markup styles, loosely known as “Web standards.” Web sites now look roughly the same in different browsers. Users said, “Yea, verily, it is good.” Read this article here .
