Puffer for Buffer

Latest Stable Release Build Status License

Puffer is a Buffer API wrapper library for PHP.

Full documentation coming soon. Meanwhile take a look at Basic Usage and Basic Docs sections below. Also dig deeper into the source code, aren't we hackers? :)


Installation

Best way to get Puffer up and running is Composer. Include otar/puffer in your composer.json requirements:

{
    "require": {
        "otar/puffer": "1.*"
    }
}

Alternatively you can grab code from this repository, but you will have to manually install dependencies in the vendor/ directory and take care of PSR-4 autoloading.


Basic Usage

Initialize & Authorize

<?php

use Puffer\Puffer;

$puffer = new Puffer([
    'consumer_key' => 'YOUR_CONSUMER_KEY_HERE',
    'consumer_secret' => 'YOUR_CONSUMER_SECRET_HERE',
    'access_token' => 'YOUR_ACCESS_TOKEN_HERE', // If you have one, or authorization will be required
    'storage' => new \Puffer\Storages\Session // Stores tokens in the session (default). Implement Puffer\StorageInterface class to save tokens in the database.
]);

if (!$puffer->isAuthorized()) {
    header('Location: ' . $puffer->getAuthUrl());
    exit;
}

var_dump($puffer->user); // Get user settings

List Your Profiles

<?php

use Puffer\Profiles;

$profiles = new Profiles;

var_dump($profiles->all()); // All profiles

// Also Profiles object can be accessed as an array,
$first_profile = $profiles[0];

// be counted,
$number_of_profiles = count($profiles);

// or even be iterated.
foreach ($profiles AS $profile) {
    $profile->create('Hello World');
}

List Pending Updates

<?php

use Puffer\Profiles;

// Grab first profile and it's pending updates in one line.
$pending = (new Profiles)[0]->pending();

Create An Update

<?php

use Puffer\Profile;

$profile = new Profile('YOUR_PROFILE_ID_HERE');
$result = $profile->create('Hello World');

if ((bool) $result->success) {
    echo 'One more update buffered in your queue.';
} else {
    echo 'Something went wrong.';
}

// Or like this:

$result = (new Profile('YOUR_PROFILE_ID_HERE'))->create('Hello World');

Delete Pending Update

<?php

use Puffer\Profiles;
use Puffer\Update;

// If you have an update id, then:
$update = new Update('UPDATE_ID_HERE');
$update->delete();

// Or grab first profile and delete first pending update in one line:

$result = (new Profiles)[0]->pending()[0]->destroy();

Basic Docs

Library is contextually separated into four major classes:

  • Puffer
    • Used for initialization, auth and making calls to the API.
    • Access user and configuration object properties for related results from /user and /info/configuration.
    • shares() accepts link as an argument and return it's number of shares through Buffer platform.
  • Profiles
    • Retrieves all profiles under your account.
    • Use all() method for returning profiles as an array.
    • Profiles can be accessed as an array, iterated in the loops or counted using PHP's count function.
    • All profiles are returned as an objects that have their own functionality. See Profile description below.
  • Profile
    • Accepts profile ID as an argument.
    • Profile data can be accessed from the objects' properties or as an associative array.
    • sent() method returns already sent updates from this profile and pending() method returns currently buffered/pending updates.
    • You can create/buffer an update directly from the create() method. Accepts text as an argument.
  • Update
    • Accepts update ID as an argument.
    • Update data can be accessed from the objects' properties or as an associative array.
    • Supports these methods: edit(), share(), interactions(), destroy() and moveToTop().

It's highly recommended to wrap your Puffer code in the try/catch block, it will throw an Puffer\Exception in case of errors.


Contributing

If you want to contribute to this project first and the foremost you'll need to setup local development environment.

I encourage you to use GruntJS. You'll need to install these NodeJS modules (I'll probably switch to Bower in the future) from the NPM:

  • grunt-phplint
  • grunt-php-cs-fixer
  • grunt-phpunit
  • grunt-contrib-watch
  • grunt-notify

After installing GruntJS plugins, simply run the grunt command. It will begin to "watch" modifications in the src/ and tests/ directories and run Grunt tasks as soon as you change something in the *.php files.

For testing you may prefer to use local PHPUnit installation, please make sure it's updated to the latest version.

First create an issue, fork a repository, make changes and make "pull request".


Final Notes

Best way to reach me is an email or Twitter. See my contact information here: http://otar.me

And to help you finish reading this stuff in a good mood here's a joke:

Husband: make me a sandwich.
Wife: what? make it yourself!
Husband: sudo make me a sandwich.
Wife: okay...

Thanks for staying tuned! :)
