- In your project root repository run
composer require shoppingfeed/php-sdk
- Install a http client of your choice, we recommend using GuzzleHttp 6 as the SDK embed an adapter for this client.
You can also develop your own adapter, if you already have a http client library in your project (see the http adapter documentation for more information).
composer require guzzlehttp/guzzle ^6.3
This will load the SDK library into the vendor
repository.
And thanks to PSR-4 specification you should be able to access the SDK under the namespace \ShoppingFeed\Sdk
.
Here are the three basic steps to use the SDK :
- Authentication to start a new session
- Retrieve the store(s) you want to manage from the session
- Manage resources
The Shopping Feed API requires that you are authenticated to perform any calls.
In order to make authenticated call, you should build the client like so:
<?php
namespace ShoppingFeed\Sdk;
// Setup credentials to connect to the API, and create session
$credential = new Credential\Token('api-token');
/** @var \ShoppingFeed\Sdk\Api\Session\SessionResource $session */
$session = Client\Client::createSession($credential);
/** @var \ShoppingFeed\Sdk\Api\Session\SessionResource $session */
$store = $session->selectStore(1276);
$store->getName(); // test-store
$store->getId(); // 1276
// ... and so on
If you manage more than one store, you can use the store collection object
/** @var \ShoppingFeed\Sdk\Api\Session\SessionResource $session */
// Get store collection
$stores = $session->getStores();
// Count the number of stores [int]
$stores->count();
// Get a particular store
$store = $stores->select('id-or-store-name');
// Loop over available stores
foreach ($stores as $store) {
$store->getName();
}
The SDK is able to simplify XML feed creation by providing necessary tools.
