Livedocx
========

[](#livedocx)

Generate PDF and other document types using the Livedocx webservice in PHP.

You can now check the [complete documentation](http://awakenweb.github.io/livedocx/)

Why this package?
-----------------

[](#why-this-package)

You may know a [Livedocx package](https://github.com/zendframework/ZendService_LiveDocx) already exists, so why did I bother reinvent the wheel?

The existing Livedocx package is tightly bound to Zend Framework components and requires a lot of dependencies. Requiring nearly half a framework to only use a single library felt like pure overkill to me.

I developped this Livedocx client with two point in mind:

- just the strict necessary dependencies
- an object oriented API

Hope you will find it useful.

This package is unit tested with [Atoum](https://github.com/atoum/atoum)

Prerequisites
-------------

[](#prerequisites)

This package requires:

- PHP 5.4+
- ext-soap
- ext-openssl \*

\**(Livedocx is [unaffected by Heartbleed security leak](https://filippo.io/Heartbleed/#api.livedocx.com))*

Installation
------------

[](#installation)

To install this package using [Composer](https://getcomposer.org/), simply add this to you `composer.json` file

```
 "require" : {
    "awakenweb/livedocx" : "dev-master"
 }
```

Available framework integration packages:

- Laravel 4: [awakenweb/Livedocx4Laravel](https://github.com/awakenweb/livedocx4laravel)

What parts of the Livedocx API are covered by this package?
-----------------------------------------------------------

[](#what-parts-of-the-livedocx-api-are-covered-by-this-package)

This package provides support for the following API:

- Document merging
- Repeated blocks merging
- Images merging
- Bitmap exports
- Metafiles
- Subtemplates

As there is really few documentation about the shared documents feature, I did not add support for now. I may add it when I find some doc about how to use it properly.

Use
---

[](#use)

First, a [Livedocx](http://www.livedocx.com/) account is required. It may be any account type: free, premium, or fully licenced.

The full documentation is in progress and should arrive shortly. For now, here is a simple example of usage. For more informations, take a look at the code.
