API Client
==========

[](#api-client)

An API client primarily to work with DotKernel API.

CURRENTLY UNSTABLE

Install
-------

[](#install)

Install via composer

### Composer

[](#composer)

`composer install advancedideasmechanics/apiclient`

### Call package

[](#call-package)

#### Initialize

[](#initialize)

`$apiclient = new ApiClient(baseurl, clientId, clientSecret, grantType, scope, userName, userSecret, tokenLocation, tokenFilename, debug, additionalParams);`

See if it works, if api call works it will create a tokenFilename in your chosen location. Create location path if not already in place.

#### Test

[](#test)

`$apiclient->getAccessToken();`

#### Send data to API

[](#send-data-to-api)

`$apiclient->makeApiRequest($endpoint, $body, $method = "GET", $additionalHeaders = []);`

#### Initialize Details

[](#initialize-details)

Below uses some DotKernel defaults. DO NOT use those values in production.

`baseurl  = http://localhost:8083`

`clientId = frontend` # DotKernel default

`clientSecret = frontend` # DotKernel default

`grantType = password`

`scope = api` # DotKernel default (you can keep this)

`userName = test@dotkernel.com` # DotKernel default

`userSecret = dotkernel` # DotKernel default

`tokenLocation = /var/www/data/` # keep outside web folder

`tokenFilename = token.json` # can be any file name you wish.

`debug = false` # optional will default to false, this for guzzle debugging to log files.

`additionParms = []` # Optional Guzzle parameters.

#### Send / Retrieve to API

[](#send--retrieve-to-api)

`endpoint = /someapiendpoint` # start from the root of the baseurl

`body = []` # Array of information that will be sent to api as json\_encoded() can be just \[\] if using GET

`method = GET` # defaults to GET but you can use any HTTP VERB you set if the endpoint accepts it.

`additionalHeader = []` # Optional for Guzzle
