Experience Level: Intermediate
In Summary I Need:
A PHP Script to create one xml file based on several differently formatted xml files which I can run at short intervals via a cron job.
Full Details:
I run an online bingo portal and would like to produce a live bingo rooms ticker which reads multiple different xml files located on different servers and produces one xml file that is cached(written) locally only my own server.
e.g:
When I run a script such as:
getbingoroomdata.php
It will produce an xml file for me on my server such as:
Bingodata.xml
Which might look something like:
<gd>
<rd id="22" rn="Bingo 90 Link Game" tp="0.10" p="571" pt="458.12" jp="9,218.26"/>
<rd id="22" rn="Bingo 80" tp="0.25" p="106" pt="79.75" jp="500.00"/>
<rd id="22" rn="Bingo 75" tp="0.10" p="29" pt="10.37" jp="500.00"/
<rd id="22" rn="Bingo Lite Link Game" tp="0.02" p="149" pt="27.48" jp="0.00"/>
</gd>
I have around 6 different bingo xml feeds (external) which each have the same information, just formatted differently. I need to have these 6 different feeds amalgamated into one xml file according to the format that I will supply to reside locally on my server, as I have a fairly good understanding of php, this script must:
IMPORTANT:
-- Be written in php
-- Something efficient that I can run as a cron job to update the data constantly
-- Well commented / document
-- Scalable - allow me to easily add my own xml feeds at a later date
As these feeds represent live bingo games, they will need to be updated as regularly as possible in the most efficient manner possible. As I have around 25-30 different sites, this must be done in such a way that the local xml document is constantly updated in a quick and efficient manner.
While there are around 6 differently formatted bingo feeds, some of these feeds are used with different ids to get the different operator data eg:
http://banner.virtueaffiliates.com/affiliates/ws/data?gameSite=ladbrokes.com&request=UpcomingGames
http://banner.virtueaffiliates.com/affiliates/ws/data?gameSite=paddypowerbingo.com&request=UpcomingGames
An example of a different feed to these two is:
http://www.sunbingo.co.uk/GetBingoLobbyXML.do?partnerId=1
So, in total there are 6 differently formatted xml feeds, of which each feed type could have multiple different bingo sites.
For anyone who is proficient in php and xml this should not be a difficult task, although I would be interesting hearing the approach to reading all 25-30 different xml feeds and creating the master xml file.
Full details will be given to those asking the right questions and wanting to proceed.
