It is a class that handles the controller layer in the BMLT client/server system. This class will deal with all HTTP interactions, and uses the JSON interface of the BMLT root server to operate. It is designed to provide a functional interface to a communication infrastructure for BMLT satellites. It communicates with the root server using the JSON variant of the REST interface. This class will not use a class to hold transactions or parameters. This is because [the fox ain't worth the chase](http://philip.greenspun.com/humor/eecs-difference-explained)That being said, transactions can be serialized and restored. This class is to be used as a "driver," not a communication stack. It is up to the implementation to do things like manage multiple transactions and whatnot. REQUIREMENTS ------------ [](#requirements) This class requires a root server version of at least 1.8.1, and 1.8.31 introduces some new details that will add more capability. It *MAY* work with older root servers, but there are no guarantees as to the level of functionality available. INSTALLATION ------------ [](#installation) Simply include the bmlt\_satellite\_controller.class.php file, and instantiate an instance of bmlt\_satellite\_controller. See the unit\_test.php and application\_test.php files for usage examples. This class is used in all of the current CMS satellite classes, via [the BMLT Satellite Base Class](https://bmlt.app/specific-topics/bmlt-satellite-base-class/) CHANGELIST ---------- [](#changelist) \*\**Version 1.1.1* \*\* *- November 12, 2023* - Fixed warning using strcmp with null. \*\**Version 1.1.0* \*\* *- September 6, 2022* - Converted all XML endpoints to JSON. \*\**Version 1.0.19* \*\* *- October 31, 2018* - Adding composer.json file to allow this to be pulled in to other projects easier. \*\**Version 1.0.18* \*\* *- November 10, 2017* - The spoofed user agent in the call\_curl function caused problems with some security software.
