Below are a view Examples on how to send commands from a remote enviroment.
== C# .NET ==

=== Example 1 - "admin_create_user" ===

This example needs the Nwc.XmlRpc library, located in your OpenSimulator bin folder.

<source lang="csharp">
public void CreateUser(Uri url, string adminPassword, string firstName, string lastName, string password, string email, int regionX, int regionY)
{
var address = Dns.GetHostEntry(url.DnsSafeHost).AddressList[0];
var ht = new Hashtable();
ht["password"] = adminPassword;
ht["user_firstname"] = firstName;
ht["user_lastname"] = lastName;
ht["user_password"] = password;
ht["user_email"] = email;
ht["start_region_x"] = regionX;
ht["start_region_y"] = regionY;
var parameters = new List<Hashtable> { ht };
var rpc = new XmlRpcRequest("admin_create_user", parameters);
rpc.Invoke(url.ToString());
}

[Test]
public void NativeUserRegistrationTest()
{
CreateUser(new Uri("http://yourgrid.com:9000/"), "secret", "Test2", "user2", "apassword", "email@address.com", 0, 0);
}
</source>

=== Example 2 - "admin_create_user" ===

<source lang="csharp">

== Python ==

=== Example 1 - admin_broadcast ===

<source lang="python">
# Author : DrScofield
# Source : http://xyzzyxyzzy.net/2008/01/23/using-pythons-xmlrpclib-with-opensim/
# License : BSD License

#!/usr/bin/python
import xmlrpclib

# XML-RPC URL (http_listener_port)
simulatorUrl = "http://127.0.0.1:9000"

# instantiate server object
simulator = xmlrpclib.Server(simulatorUrl)

# invoke admin_alert: requires password and message
simulator.admin_broadcast({'password': 'secret', 'message': 'the answer is 42'})
</source>

== XML-RPC string ==

=== Example 1 - "create user" ===

(used with first C#.NET method above)

POST admin_create_user HTTP/1.0 Host: http://10.0.0.12:16384/ Content-type: text/xml Content-Length: 993

<?xml version="1.0"?> <methodCall>     <methodName>admin_create_user</methodName>         <params>             <param>                 <value>                     <struct>                         <member>                             <name>password</name>                             <value><string>password</string></value>                         </member>                         <member>                             <name>user_firstname</name>                             <value><string>male</string></value>                         </member>                         <member>                             <name>user_lastname</name>                             <value><string>9999</string></value>                         </member>                         <member>                             <name>user_password</name>                             <value><string>password</string></value>                         </member>                         <member>                             <name>user_email</name>                             <value><string>none@email.com</string></value>                         </member>                         <member>                             <name>start_region_x</name>                             <value><int>128</int></value>                         </member>                         <member>                             <name>start_region_y</name>                             <value><int>128</int></value>                         </member>                     </struct>                 </value>             </param>         </params>     </methodCall>

== RemoteAdmin executable for Windows ==

The RemoteAdmin executable for Windows is a command line tool based on the RemoteAdmin PHP Class.


== PHP ==

=== Example 1 ===

This example needs the RemoteAdmin PHP Class file available [http://code.google.com/p/opensimtools/wiki/RemoteAdminPHPClass here]. <source lang="php">
<?php

// Author : Olish Newman
// Source : http://code.google.com/p/opensimtools/wiki/RemoteAdminPHPClass
// Licence : BSD License

// Including the RemoteAdmin PHP class. It can be downloaded from the link above.
include('RemoteAdmin.php');

// Instantiate the class with parameters identical to the Python example above
$myRemoteAdmin = new RemoteAdmin('127.0.0.1', 9000, 'secret');

// Invoke admin_broadcast
$parameters = array('message' => 'the answer is 42');
$myRemoteAdmin->SendCommand('admin_broadcast', $parameters);

// Invoke admin_shutdown (example for use without parameters)
$myRemoteAdmin->SendCommand('admin_shutdown');

// Invoke admin_create_user (multiple parameters)
$parameters = array('user_firstname' => 'Ruth', 'user_lastname' => 'OpenSim', 'user_password' => 'MyPassword', 'start_region_x' => '1000', 'start_region_y' => '1000');
$myRemoteAdmin->SendCommand('admin_create_user', $parameters);
?>
</source>

Note: This script does not appear to work for create user because it tries to pass the start region x and y as a string when the RemoteAdmin needs a string. The class needs to be edited to pass it as a number or edit the remoteadmin source to convert the string to a unsigned int.

=== Example 2 ===

Another example in PHP5, using CURL. <source lang="php">
//This is the slightly modified RPC-class of the BSD-licensed WiXTD webportal
<?php
class RemotePC {

function __construct() {
$this->serveruri = "http://myhost";
$this->serverport ="9000";
$this->password ="foobar";
}

function call($command,$parameters) {
$parameters['password'] = $this->password;
$request = xmlrpc_encode_request($command, $parameters);
$ch = curl_init();
curl_setopt( $ch, CURLOPT_URL, $this->serveruri);
curl_setopt( $ch, CURLOPT_PORT, $this->serverport]);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_POST, 1);
curl_setopt ( $ch, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER, 1);
curl_setopt ( $ch, CURLOPT_POSTFIELDS, $request);
curl_setopt ( $ch, CURLOPT_TIMEOUT, 5);
$result = curl_exec($ch);
curl_close($ch);
return xmlrpc_decode($result);
}
}
?>
</source>

 

== Perl ==

Because the OpenSimulator internal web server just accepts HTTP/1.0 requests, it's worth to give a perl example. It's not a daily thing to do HTTP/1.0 within the LWP environment. You can get the '''[[Users:Thomax:perl-xmlrpc|Perl example here]]'''.
