api::addorder - Please explain/sort this out

[Deffe]

Hi ppl!

 

Im developing a custom made cart for our companys hosting sollution and I am just about to inject the data into the whmcs.

 

But I ran into some problems, or perhaps more confusion.

 

Why do you format your order/cart array like this?

 

$postfields["action"] = "addorder";

$postfields["clientid"] = "1";

$postfields["pid[0]"] = "1";

$postfields["domain[0]"] = "whmcs.com";

$postfields["billingcycle[0]"] = "monthly";

$postfields["pid[1]"] = "1";

$postfields["domain[1]"] = "whmcs2.com";

$postfields["billingcycle[1]"] = "monthly";

$postfields["pid[2]"] = "5";

$postfields["domain[2]"] = "whmcs3.com";

$postfields["billingcycle[2]"] = "annually";

$postfields["noemail"] = "true";

$postfields["paymentmethod"] = "authorize";

 

My cart/array/oject is built in a normal fashion structure. I cant find a reason for formating the items like this.

 

I could easily format my order into this but I just cant understand Why you choose to do it like this? Please explain since I am sure there is a very good and logical reason for it.

 

My current array looks like this.

Array

(

[domains] => Array

(

[0] => Array

(

[type] => register

[productID] => 0

[domain] => xxx.se

[serviceID] =>

[extraInformation] =>

[regperiod] => 1

[eppcode] =>

[tld] => se

[price] => 49

)

 

)

 

[products] => Array

(

[0] => Array

(

[pid] => 3

[domain] => xxx.se

[name] => Basic

[price] => 75

)

 

)

 

[action] => addorder

[paymentmethod] => faktura

[clientid] => 6

)

 

but yours is ... well just strange. why ?=)
