Hello I am testing the endpoint and when I run php testing.php I get this error. Any help would be appreciated it.
Fatal error: Uncaught exception 'Guzzle\Http\Exception\CurlException' with message '[curl] 7: Failed to connect to localhost port 8000: Connection refused [url] http://localhost:8000/api/programmers' guzzle\guzzle\src\Guzzle\Http\Curl\CurlMulti.php:359 ...
I've tried 127.0.0.1 as well and it didnt work
here is testing.php
<?php
require __DIR__.'/vendor/autoload.php';
use Guzzle\Http\Client;
// create our http client (Guzzle)
$client = new Client('http://localhost:8000', array(
'request.options' => array(
'exceptions' => false,
)
));
$nickname = 'ObjectOrienter'.rand(0, 999);
$data = array(
'nickname' => $nickname,
'avatarNumber' => 5,
'tagLine' => 'a test dev!'
);
$request = $client->post('/api/programmers', null, json_encode($data));
$response = $request->send();
echo $response;
echo "
";
if you are using linux, make sure the server is running using
/etc/init.d/httpd status
If you are running localhost like so:
php -S localhost:8000
and then running curl from a different environment like vagrant then localhost on your vagrant is not the same as localhost on your local machine.
I was facing the same, when http://localhost:8000 or http://127.0.0.1:8000 neither worked. I solved it using my network IP like
192.168.0.3:8000
Check if your localhost:8000 server is running.
If it is not then start it using following command from terminal.
Go to root folder of your project & type,
php -S localhost:8000 -t .\public
