Migrating from Jumi (J!3.x) to Sourcerer with J!4.2.2

Thomas Eppensteiner

Hi Support

I was successfully using Jumi with Joomla 3.x by calling PHP-Code using URL with parameters, e.g.:
www.domain.ch/index.php/component/jumi/ cl-chart?stn1=116&grp1=30
where "cl-chart" is the Alias of one of the Jumi Applications which has some Custom Code that reads the URL parameters and passes the arguments as a $jumi array to a php-script defined in the Jumi "Pathname" field.

I'm now looking for a way to migrate that code to Sourcerer. I want to open an URL passing parameters as shown above to my script.
How can I solve this with Sourcerer Pro ?

Thanks and regards, Tom

You can get url parameters through the Joomla input object.
For instance, you can do:

{source}<?php
$stn1 = $app->input->getInt('stn1');
$grp1 = $app->input->getInt('grp1');
...
?>{/source}

Also see:

And see here for more on the input object:

Hi Peter
Thanks for your very helpful answer; you made my day 🙂

I put the following test code into a custom module:

{source}<?php
$stn1 = $app->input->getInt('stn1');
$grp1 = $app->input->getInt('grp1');

echo "<pre>";
echo "<b>Test PHP-Skript!</b>"."\n";
echo "stn1='".$stn1."'\n";
echo "grp1='".$grp1."'\n";
echo "</pre>";
?>{/source}

and a menu item "test" opens the custom module and a single dummy article with the following URL:
j4.anydomain.ch/de/test?stn1=116&grp1=30

Web browser now shows following output:

Test PHP-Skript!
stn1='116'
grp1='30'

Thanks for your help. You may close this post as solved.
