hi all,
is there a way to use netsend to talk to a php based website.
i'd like to send something corresponding to
:this works: [curl -s http://192.168.1.2/skript.php/?action=play(
[shell]
i'd like to get rid of [shell] (for windows etc) and do e.g.
:this does not work: [connect 192.168.1.2 80(
[send skript.php/?action=play( /
[netsend]
netsend uses FUDI as the default protocol, which means that the text you are sending gets a terminating semicolon. the receiver really sees "skript.php/?action=play;"
however, when you instruct curl to talk to a web-server, you are using the HTTP protocol, which is much more complex. it really sends something like:
GET /skript.php/?action=play HTTP/1.1 Host: 192.168.1.2 User-Agent: curl/7.61.0 Accept: */*with all the lines terminated with CRLF.
depending on your setup (e.g. now virtual-hosts involved), you might get away with a single CRLF-terminated line:
GET /skript.php/?action=play HTTP/1.1now netsend has a binary-mode, which allows you to specify the raw bytes you want to transmit (no more FUDI): [netsend -b]
the only remaining hurdle is to create that list of bytes. you could use [list fromsymbol] for this, but it only works on symbols (and not on lists of symbols). so one way would be to serialize your message "GET /skript.php HTTP/1.1" into 3 1-symbol messages, convert those to lists of bytes with [list fromsymbol] and merge those lists into a single one, manually adding the connecting space (32) and the terminating CRLF (13 10).
an alternative is to use [fudiformat], which converts entire messages into FUDI bytelists (very similar to [list fromsymbol] for lists; but appends a terminating ";\n"), then split away the trailing two bytes (";\n" aka: 59 10) and append CRLF (13 10).
most likely, your server will require an explicit "Host" line, so repeat the above to get it.
if you are only ever sending the same string to the server, you could of course just translate the HTTP-requests into bytes once, and store the bytelist in your patch (which makes it a little harder to debug, unless you are good at translating decimal values to ascii)
