Using wp_remote_get with cookies
I'm trying to remote get a full page using cookies, i tried many many configurations but i can not figure out why this is not working.
Heres my basic code ( url NSFW sorry ) :
<?php
while( !is_file( 'wp-load.php' ) ){
if( is_dir('../') ) chdir( '../' );
else die( 'Could not find WordPress.' );
}
DEFINE( 'SHORT_INIT', true );
require ( 'wp-load.php' );
$url = 'http://www.reddit.com/r/redheads/'; // NSFW
$content = wp_remote_get( $url );
header("Content-Type:text/plain");
var_dump( $content );
?>This page can not be viewed without a cookie named "over18" containing your session id.
I think i have to add cookies here : wp_remote_get( $url, $args );
Who can tell me what is the good $args to pass in this function ?
Thank you
ps : please, try your code before posting.

Sorry, but $5 is not worth a lot of time.
So I'll help you with the basic info and you will have to find yourself the correct values for reddit ;-)
$url = 'http://www.reddit.com/r/redheads/'; // NSFW
$cookie = new WP_Http_Cookie( 'over18' );
$cookie->name = 'over18';
$cookie->value = '8cfed3ce4e1c0bd7d2763c2839a689b69e5f8d6c';
$cookie->expires = mktime( 0, 0, 0, date('m'), date('d') + 7, date('Y') ); // expires in 7 days
$cookie->path = '/';
$cookie->domain = '.reddit.com';
$cookies[] = $cookie;
$cookie2 = new WP_Http_Cookie( 'reddit_first' );
$cookie2->name = 'reddit_first';
$cookie2->value = '%7B%22firsttime%22%3A%20%22first%22%7D';
$cookie2->expires = mktime( 0, 0, 0, date('m'), date('d') + 7, date('Y') );
$cookie2->path = '/';
$cookie2->domain = '.reddit.com';
$cookies[] = $cookie2;
$args = array( 'cookies' => $cookies );
$content = wp_remote_get( $url, $args );
Good luck,
Gabriel
Edit: Thanks for the prize money.
If I knew you accepted a cURL solution, I would have shared mine before ( it does a login, then loads a page )
<?php
if ( ! function_exists( curl_init ) ) {

<p class="erro"> Não é possível consultar site ! <br />
Falta função curl_init no PHP. </p>
<p><a href="http://example.com/">Extranet</a></p>

} else {
$hCURL = @curl_init(); // create cURL handle ( )
if ( ! $hCURL ) {

Julio Potier says:Of course i understand that $5 is low, in fact, i was waiting for someone who already got this kind of code in their files.
But you can count on me, if i see that someone waste his time for one of my question, the price will be raised ;)
Thank you dude ! Mines is the man with his CURL function.
But your function works for a wp_reote_get, so you both win $5 ;)
Thanks too

Use curl instead:
/* cookie file */
$cookie_file = dirname(__FILE__) . '/cookie.txt';
/* url we need to access */
$confirmation_url = 'http://www.reddit.com/r/redheads/over18?dest=%2Fr%2Fredheads';
/* perform a post request with our cookie. using curl */
$handle = curl_init();
curl_setopt($handle, CURLOPT_URL, $confirmation_url);
curl_setopt($handle, CURLOPT_COOKIEJAR, $cookie_file);
curl_setopt($handle, CURLOPT_COOKIEFILE, $cookie_file);
curl_setopt($handle, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER, true);
curl_setopt($handle, CURLOPT_POST, true );
curl_setopt($handle, CURLOPT_FOLLOWLOCATION, true );
curl_setopt($handle, CURLOPT_POSTFIELDS, array('over18' => 'yes', 'uh' => ''));
/* reponse contains our page */
$response = curl_exec($handle);
Note: $response will be your page in HTML.- 10/18/11 8:49am
Julio Potier says:Ok i see ... the button is a POST method, of course -_-
So, mines, your my man. Your code works !
Thank you !!
As i can see, you're new here, welcome :)
