PHP Request To Fetch Data From WSO2 Data Services Server

Question

I have successfully set up the WSO2 Data Services Server and have created to some procedures which fetch the data as XML. I can see them in the DSS admin panel. In order to do that I have completed DSS wizard which allows me to add new data sources and created some procedures as well. That's fine.

What I want to know is how can I connect PHP with the DDS ? In other words How can I make a PHP request so that data are fetch to my PHP script from the DSS ? Is it possible to data to be fetched as JSON ? If so how ?

This simple script might give you an idea how to connect to your server:

<?php
$client = new SoapClient("http://*yourDSserver*:*yourPort*/services/yourDSservice?wsdl",array('trace' => 1));

try { 
  $info = $client->__soapCall("op_name",array(*--your request data goes here--*));

} catch (SoapFault $fault) { 
  print($fault); 
} 

print_r($info);

change yourDSserver, yourDSport,yourDSservice, as well as op_name to values suitable for your installation.

A few more lines that might be usefull for debugging:

echo "\nRequest:\n" . $client->__getLastRequest() . "\n";
echo "\nResponse:\n" . $client->__getLastResponse() . "\n";
