I have a very simple plugin with a javascript file and a PHP file. I want to call the PHP file from my javascript code and get the output. The javascript functions is something like the following:
function img_upload(){
var ajax = new XMLHttpRequest();
ajax.open('GET', 'http://My_Domain_Name.com/wp-content/plugins/My_Plugin/auth.php', false);
ajax.send();
if (ajax.status === 200) {
console.log(ajax.responseText);
}
and the PHP file which returns the results:
<?php
$token=Get_Token();
echo $token;
function Get_Token()
{
//Do some stuff
return $token;
}
?>
both files (auth.php and myjs.js) are in the root directory of the plugin.
/home/My_Username/public_html/wp-content/plugins/My_Plugin
If I use the domain name I can call the php file in ajax.open() and get the results, but I know this is not the right way to do that. How can I call the php file inside my javascrip code via ajax.open(‘path_to_php’) in WordPress properly without indicating the domain name?
