SugarCRM with Seagull, Chapter 3 (final)

The thing finally works & is simply great. It took a little time but it is really good tradeoff because you gain all of SugarCRM functionality and development of such would take way more time.
Experience with provided API is that it is really easy to communicate with. A little bit frustrating was the fail to use PEAR`s SOAP_Client, but nusoap does the job just fine (if anybody have done it with mentioned package, please place a comment with a guide for providing complex datatypes).

So to summarize: Christians - Lions 1:0 :)

SugarCRM with Seagull, Chapter 2

Made local installation of SugarCRM, went almost smoothly (got some minor unimportant errors). Tried to connect to its API with PEAR`s SOAP_Client. The test call was made correctly but when I passed it multidimensional arrays as parameter (for login call) something odd happens. It always returns error. Tried with nusoap, everything went almost smoothly (the problem with it is using same name for a class as PHP 5`s SOAP extension, solution is disable extension or make renames in nusoap classes, I made the second option, as I dont know whether I will use PHP`s SOAP in future). Now I am able to communicate with SugarCRM, working on classes that will talk with it atm, more will come.

SugarCRM with Seagull, Chapter 1

Started today an interesting project, namely integration of SugarCRM (customer relationship management) solution with seagull. Plan to do it trough provided soap API interface, looking forward to challenges, which will surely come. Plan to make it as part of export module (maybe later a separate one), as I need only one way (SGL->Sugar) communication. If anybody has idea/proposal don`t hesitate, now is the time :)
