Traccar SMS Gateway for None traccar use

Firstly Id like to say thanks to Anton for such a great app. Its works flawlessly with my traccar setup. The reason for my post is that I want to use the app from my website to send sms messages using php. I'm sure there must be a simple way to do this with a for. However ive tried countless times with no results. I wonder if somebody could come up with something. I see in the traccar config it simply sends the phone number and message along with the api key. Any ideas anyone?

What is the issue exactly? Do you get some errors? What are troubleshooting results so far?

I am trying to post my form to this php script. but no results. the form sends the recipient phone number, message and the api key to this script

<?php
$phone = $_POST['to'];
$text = $_POST['message'];
$api_key = $_POST['api_key'];
$enviar = $_POST['enviar'];

  if (isset($enviar)) {
$url = 'http://myip';

$data = array(
    'to' => $phone,
    'message' => $text,
);
$curl = curl_init();
    curl_setopt($curl, CURLOPT_URL, $url);
    curl_setopt($curl, CURLOPT_POST, true);
    curl_setopt($curl, CURLOPT_POSTFIELDS, http_build_query($data));
    curl_setopt($curl, CURLOPT_CONNECTTIMEOUT, 10);
    curl_setopt($curl, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER, true);
      curl_setopt($curl, CURLOPT_HTTPHEADER, array(
            "Authorization: " . $api_key 
                                                    )
                    );  }

$response = curl_exec($curl);
$obj = json_decode($response, true);
var_dump($response);

traccar works perfect

string(10) "Error: 500"

Compare your request with Traccar request.

Hi. Could you show me the traccar code or form that makes the request please

Is there anyone else could help with this. I would be happy to pay.

If you are interested in paid support, you can send an email to support address to discuss it.

Yes i'll do that now thanks

in case anyone is interested its very easy to send a message to the traccar sms gateway app using the command line as follows.

curl -H "Content-Type: application/json" -H "Authorization: your_api_key" -d '{"to":"+44123456789","message":"test"}' http://00.000.000.00/

Does anyone want to contribute to this post with other methods of sending messages to the app.

Also in php like this:

<?php
$ch = curl_init();

curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_URL, 'http://00.000.000.00/');
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER, 1);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_POST, 1);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_POSTFIELDS, "{\"to\":\"+44123456789\",\"message\":\"test message\"}");

$headers = array();
$headers[] = 'Content-Type: application/json';
$headers[] = 'Authorization: your_api_key';
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_HTTPHEADER, $headers);

$result = curl_exec($ch);
if (curl_errno($ch)) {
    echo 'Error:' . curl_error($ch);
}
curl_close($ch);

In the php example above you need to put a \ before a " for some reason this forum strips them out

You just need to use proper markdown.

And this php code is a bit more tidy

<?php

$apikey = 'Your API Key';
$to = '+44123456789';
$message = 'this is a test';
$mobile_ip = 'http://00.000.000.00/';

$ch = curl_init();

curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_URL, $mobile_ip);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER, 1);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_POST, 1);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_POSTFIELDS, "{\"to\":\"$to\",\"message\":\"$message\"}");

curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_HTTPHEADER, array(
    'Content-Type: application/json',
    'Authorization: ' . $apikey)
);

$result = curl_exec($ch);
if (curl_errno($ch)) {
    echo 'Error:' . curl_error($ch);
}
curl_close($ch);
