Installation and usage
----------------------

[](#installation-and-usage)

The [wiki](https://github.com/bigbluebutton/bigbluebutton-api-php/wiki) contains all the documentation related to the PHP library. We have also written a samples to show a full install and usage example.

Submitting bugs and feature requests
------------------------------------

[](#submitting-bugs-and-feature-requests)

Bugs and feature request are tracked on [GitHub](https://github.com/bigbluebutton/bigbluebutton-api-php/issues)

Contributing guidelines
-----------------------

[](#contributing-guidelines)

### Code Quality 1: Style

[](#code-quality-1-style)

Make sure the code style configuration is applied by running PHPCS-Fixer.

```
# using an alias
$ composer cs-fix
```

### Code Quality 2: Static code analysis

[](#code-quality-2-static-code-analysis)

PHPStan shall be used for static code analysis by running the command below:

```
# using an alias
$ composer code-check

# or the same w/o alias
$ ./vendor/bin/phpstan analyse
```

### Code Quality 3: Tests

[](#code-quality-3-tests)

For every implemented feature add unit tests and check all is green by running the command below.

```
# using an alias
$ composer code-test

# or the same w/o alias
./vendor/bin/phpunit
```

To run a single test

```
# using an alias
$ composer code-test -- --filter BigBlueButtonTest::testApiVersion

# or the same w/o alias
./vendor/bin/phpunit --filter BigBlueButtonTest::testApiVersion
```

A code-coverage report will be created along with the tests. This report will be stored in:

```
./var/coverage/

```

In case of trouble with the creation of the code-coverage report (e.g. local environment does not fulfill requirements) the creation can be skipped with:

```
# using an alias
$ composer code-test -- --no-coverage
```

**Remark:**

Some test will connect to an existing BBB-server, which is specified in the `.env`-file. You can specify your own BBB-server by copy that file into the same folder and name it `.env.local`. Exchange the credentials `BBB_SERVER_BASE_URL` and `BBB_SECRET` to your server's values. Since this new file (`.env.local`) takes precedence over the main file (`.env`), you will now test with your own server.
