Cipux XMLRPC Server
It is now possible to access some CipUX functions from another process or even another computer. XML RPC is a remote procedure call norm that allow any process to call functions located on another process. CipUX is using Frontier Perl module to create a stand alone HTTPS server that wait for XML RPC function calls.
The cipux_task_* function are exported with the same parameters and return results as the shell commands.
The user authentication is based on LDAP user account list and some XML RPX specific functions are exported by XML RPC as follow :
Function |
Explanation |
cipux_rpc_login (user,pass) > cookie session | false |
This function allow the login and authentication of the remote user. It create a session and returns the session cookie. |
cipux_rpc_logout (cookie) > true | false |
Disconnect the user's session cookie and returns true if it was successfully disconnected |
cipux_rpc_ping (cookie) > true | false |
Ping the xml rpc server to know if the session with cookie is still valid. Prevent idle timeout of user session. |
The other functions are based on cipux_task_* shell scripts. The first parameter is always a session cookie. Those functions should returns an error code if something gone wrong

The french project will use this XML RPC server for the Moodle XML RPC user and group management system, let's see (in french) : http://wiki.skolelinux.fr/cgi-bin/skolelinux/moin.cgi/XmlRpc
