When attempting to run this:

civix generate:api Invoice Create

It creates an /api/v3/Invoice folder but doesn't create any files. Instead I get the following:

Warning: ini_set(): A session is active. You cannot change the session module's ini settings at this time in /home/ubuntu/civix/vendor/symfony/symfony/src/Symfony/Component/HttpFoundation/Session/Storage/Handler/NativeFileSessionHandler.php line 56

Civix works for me otherwise; I can create extensions, pages, etc. Any suggestions?

Hit this one last month, and created a bug for it: https://issues.civicrm.org/jira/browse/CRM-16218

Are you using WordPress, by any chance?

As a workaround, you can create manually the Create.php file that contains civicrm_api3_invoice_create()

Check the api/v3 folder in the core for examples (eg. the email one)

As for civix, do you have the latest version? if it's the case, fill a bug on github

  • @Andrew's answer and bug filed match the exact issue I'm having. I looked at the Email Create example, but it calls existing api functions. In this case I'm asking civix to create a new API endpoint in order to expose some custom functions to the CMS, per wiki.civicrm.org/confluence/display/CRMDOC/….

  • my point was that you don't need civix to create these, you can manually create the file with the right function and it will end up working the same

  • Ah, I thought perhaps something special was required for exposing my own api functions, as the wiki said "Note that the parameters and return values must be processed in a particular way (as demonstrated by the auto-generated file)."

    nope, but it's expecting the name of the file and location and function within to follow a specific format. Checkout the api/v3 on civi for examples (mail.php for instance for a generic one, assuming you have a dao/bao already)
