MiniApi

MiniApi is an object oriented and flexible API client which contains everything you need to interact with web API.

Features

• Support standard HTTP protocols: GET, POST, PUT, DELETE, HEAD, OPTIONS;
• Support SOAP protocol
• Support WSSE authentication

Installation

composer require miniapi/miniapi

Get Started

• Initialization

    $api = new MiniApi\MiniApi();
  

• Simple GET request

    $api->get('http://www.google.com')->call()->debug();
  

• Simple POST request

    $api->post('http://www.google.com/user')->call('{"name", "John"}')->debug();
  

• POST with WSSE authentication

    $response = $api->post('http://www.google.com', '/user')
    	->header('Content-Type','application/json')
    	->auth('WSSE')
    	->prop('wsse.username', 'example-username')
    	->prop('wsse.password', 'example-password')
    	->call('{"name":"John"}');
    echo $response->body();
  

• SOAP with WSSE authentication

    $response = $api->soap('http://www.google.com/?wsdl', 'User.New')
    	->auth('WSSE')
    	->prop('wsse.namespace', 'http://www.google.com')
    	->prop('wsse.username', 'example-username')
    	->prop('wsse.password', 'example-password')
    	->call(array("name"=>"John"));
    echo $response->body();

Interface

Protocol	Interface
GET	$api->get($endpoint, $method='')
POST	$api->post($endpoint, $method='')
PUT	$api->put($endpoint, $method='')
DELETE	$api->delete($endpoint, $method='')
HEAD	$api->head($endpoint, $method='')
OPTIONS	$api->options($endpoint, $method='')
SOAP	$api->soap($endpoint, $method)
User-defined	$api->request($endpoint, $method, $protocol)

Each interface above returns a instance of MiniRequest which allows you to do customization using chaining methods, as you already see.

The request will NOT be sent until you use $api->call() method which accepts an optional body and returns a instance of MiniResponse.

Response Handling

MiniResponse contains all detailed information about this API call. Below is an example of response handling.

if($response->error()){
	echo sprintf("Error: %d %s\n%s", 
		$response->status_code(), 
		$response->error(), 
		$response->response_raw());
}else{
	echo sprintf("Response: %s\n%s\n%s", 
		$response->body(),
		$response->request_raw(), 
		$response->response_raw());
}

To save your time, you can also simply use echo $response->debug() to print out detailed request and response.

Need More Protocols/Authentications?

If you need to use some protocol/authentication that MiniApi currently doesn't support, you can write and register your own protocol handler to extend MiniApi.

class MySoapClient extends MiniProtocol{
	protected function init_auth_registration(){}
	protected function send(MiniRequest $request, MiniResponse $response){
		echo "MySoapClient is sending request ...\n";
	}
}
$api->register_protocol('SOAP', 'MySoapClient');
$api->request('http://www.google.com/?wsdl', 'User.New', 'SOAP')->call('{"name":"John"}');
