💥 Looking for expert help with the Trade Me API and PHP? See me in my day job, I am an expert in Trade Me Website Integration Development - sorry for the ad, got to pay the bills you know.
NOTICE: Trademe have for some reason removed the developer forum which had much good information, in the mean time you should read the thread at the Wayback Machine
gogoTradeMe provides a SIMPLE implementation of OAuth in PHP, utilising CURL, and specifically intended and configured for accessing the TradeMe API.
This software is not produced, endorsed or supported by Trade Me Limited, it is an unofficial open source package providing a convenient interface to connect PHP applications to the published Trade Me API.
It ONLY handles the "guts" of authorising with OAuth and issuing requests.
Caching, token storage etc is all left up to you to do however you want.
The best way to learn how to use gogoTradeMe is to grab the source, put it somwhere you can access it and hit the exampe/index.php
First, Edit: example/include/config.php
Then, Hit: example/index.php
Now, Read: example/connect.php
Then: example/callback.php
And: example/watchlist.php
And: example/save_note.php
