Last flight table

phpVMS Legacy Support
1

Hello

I would like to put on my ftp servor a table which presents the pilot list with only the date of the last flight. This page will be public, so all the people will see it without registering.

I tried to do this php page with this code I found in this forum :

<?php

$report = PIREPData::GetLastReports($pilot->pilotid, 1);

echo date(‘d.M.Y’, strtotime($report->submitdate));

?>

But when I use this code, nothing happens.

How can I do to do this page with only the pilot list and the date of the last flight ?

Thanks

Stéphane

Your code works fine on my pilots table…

What version are you running?

If you want to do a little more with it since if a pilot has not flown any flights the system returns a date of Dec 31 1969 you could use the code below to show “No Flights” instead of the old date..

<?php
$report = PIREPData::GetLastReports($pilot->pilotid, 1);
$check = date('Y', strtotime($report->submitdate));
if ($check=="1969")
	{
	echo 'no flights';
	} 
	else
	{
	$last = date('M.d.Y', strtotime($report->submitdate));
	echo $last;
	}				
?>

The last PIREP date is stored in the pilot’s table, in the ‘lastpirep’ field, as a datetime, so you could do:

<?php

$pilots = PilotData::GetAllPilots();

foreach($pilots as $pilot)
{
    echo "{$pilot->firstname} {$pilot->lastname} - {$pilot->lastpirep}<br />";
}

When using double quotes in a string, it’s good practice to encapsulate variables in { }

You can check if it’s null (this is the default value, it’s only updated when there’s a PIREP):

if($pilot->lastpirep == '0000-00-00 00:00:00')
{
    echo 'No PIREP';
}
else
{
    // What David suggested:
    echo  date('m-d-Y', strtotime($pirep->lastpirep));
}

This will be the most reliable way.

Also, not sure if you knew, if this is outside of phpVMS, you have to:

<?php

include '/path/to/core/codon.config.php';

Then anything with the API should work.

Hello

Thank you for your ansers. I put this code on an lastflight.php page in my ftp servor, but outside of the phpvms folder :

<?php

include '/path/to/core/codon.config.php';

$pilots = PilotData::GetAllPilots();

foreach($pilots as $pilot)
{
    echo "{$pilot->firstname} {$pilot->lastname} - {$pilot->lastpirep}<br />";
}

if($pilot->lastpirep == '0000-00-00 00:00:00')
{
    echo 'No PIREP';
}
else
{
    // What David suggested:
    echo  date('m-d-Y', strtotime($pirep->lastpirep));
}
?>

But I still have a blank page (without any information) when I want to see this page with only this code.

Did I make an error ?

Thanks

include '/path/to/core/codon.config.php';

You have to change this to the path to the file on your server. Probably something like..

include '/myairlinefolder/core/codon.config.php';

I’ve done it, but I still have the blank page.

You have the right path?

Before and after that include line, put:

error_reporting(E_ALL);
ini_set('display_errors', 'on');

Hopefully that will give some sort of clue as to the error

Now, I have this error :

Warning: include() [function.include]: Failed opening ‘/phpvms/core/codon.config.php’ for inclusion (include_path=‘.’) in /home/vol4/byethost31.com/b31_3600827/htdocs/lastflight.php on line 5

Fatal error: Class ‘PilotData’ not found in /home/vol4/byethost31.com/b31_3600827/htdocs/lastflight.php on line 10

Your include path is wrong.

Try without that leading / in front of it

Now I have two others errors which are listed, but I have the last flight list.

Thanks for all.
