CiviCRM Community Forums (archive)

I'm trying to use the OO API to search for contacts, but something seems wrong in my setup.

In a module I have this:

require_once 'sites/all/modules/civicrm/api/class.api.php';

And in a node I have this:

$api = new civicrm_api3();
$params = array(
  'sequential' => 1,
  'contact_type' => 'Individual'
);
$result = $api->Contact->Get($params);

That results in the following error in the Apache log:

[Mon Jan 06 22:53:01 2014] [error] [client ::1] PHP Fatal error:  Class 'CRM_Core_Config' not found in
/Users/ken/Documents/SIA/site-upgrade/sites/all/modules/civicrm/api/class.api.php on line 122, referer:
http://localhost/node/5/edit

Any ideas?

I'm running Drupal 7.24, CiviCRM 4.4, and PHP 5.3.26.

Thanks.

That doesn't seem to help - if I add that right after loading the API:

require_once 'sites/all/modules/civicrm/api/class.api.php';
civicrm_initialize( );

then it doesn't seem to know about the function:

[Tue Jan 07 20:53:54 2014] [error] [client ::1] PHP Fatal error:  Call to undefined function civicrm_initialize() in /Users/ken/Documents/SIA/site-upgrade/sites/all/modules/SIA_custom/SIA_custom.module on line 4, referer: http://localhost/node/5/edit

I see that civicrm_initialize() is defined in sites/all/modules/civicrm/drupal/civicrm.module, but I don't know why that's not loaded.  I do have CiviCRM 4.4 installed and enabled, and even listed as a prerequisite of my module.

Doesn't help, it's still undefined if I move it one line earlier.

I didn't change anything in the module weights (didn't even know you could until now!), but I think that may be the problem:

mysql> select name, type, status, weight from system where name like 'SIA%' or name like 'civ%' order by weight;
+--------------------------+--------+--------+--------+
| name                     | type   | status | weight |
+--------------------------+--------+--------+--------+
| siabp2                   | theme  |      1 |      0 |
| SIA_custom               | module |      1 |      0 |
| civicrmtheme             | module |      0 |      0 |
| civicrm_constant_contact | module |      0 |      0 |
| civicrm_engage           | module |      0 |      0 |
| civicrm_og_sync          | module |      0 |      0 |
| civicrm_contact_ref      | module |      0 |      0 |
| civicrm_member_roles     | module |      0 |      0 |
| civicrm                  | module |      1 |    100 |
| civicrm_rules            | module |      0 |    110 |
| civicrm_group_roles      | module |      0 |    110 |
+--------------------------+--------+--------+--------+

Is the weight supposed to be set automatically by looking at the dependencies?
