PHP Client for OC

[navamgupta]

We talked about this on the Gitter channel. I believe we do need a PHP client and am willing to work on it in collaboration with you guys. However the first step would be requirements and interface design (which could be as simple as whatever we have for the node client) .
Lets use this issue to formalize the requirements and start working on it :)

I think this is a great idea. Agree about using the node client's API as a starting point, it should be simple and we should be able to provide parity on the various settings.

Who wants to create a repo somewhere and start sketching out some boilerplate for the PHP library? Want me to?
Let's ensure @gtrias is on the loop as I think he wants to help.

also @gregoryStarr was interested in helping w/ PHP

I would like to help as well :)
I'll try to find a moment to start something functional.

This makes me think about the node oc-client in this same repo. Shouldn't we move it to a different repo? More now that other clients will be created.

@elboletaire definitely we should make the PHP client in a new repo. In fact, I asked if anyone wants to create a repo somewhere to start. If you want, I can create a new one here in the opentable org but is up to you :)

In regards of the node client, yes, we already have an issue to move the browser client to own repo first (as it's a dependency of both core and node client) - then second step will be to move node client to own repo too 👍

Oh I didn't see #438 when writing that down. Good then.

Here is the new WIP repo: https://github.com/opencomponents/oc-client-php

Should I close this now that we have a new place where to discuss this?
