Supports: - Modern camelCase API (`PrivatebinPHP`) - Original snake\_case API (`PrivatebinSnakeCase`) - Optional pipe-style helpers (`PrivatebinPHPPipe`) - Attachments - Password-protected pastes - Burn-after-reading - Discussions - Compression - Custom formatters - SSL verification control - PHP 7.1+ compatibility --- Installation ============ [](#installation) ``` composer require cyvax/privatebin_php ``` --- Default Instance ================ [](#default-instance) By default, the library is configured to use: ``` https://paste.i2pd.xyz/ ``` You can override it with `setUrl()` or via constructor options. --- Usage ===== [](#usage) Modern camelCase API -------------------- [](#modern-camelcase-api) ``` use Cyvax\Clients\Privatebin; $result = (new Privatebin()) ->setUrl("https://privatebin.net/") ->setText("Because ignorance is bliss!") ->setExpire("1hour") ->encodeAndPost(); ``` ### Factory method [](#factory-method) `PrivatebinPHP::init()` supports named parameters for a more concise setup on PHP 8+: ``` use Cyvax\Clients\Privatebin; $result = Privatebin::init( url: "https://privatebin.net/", text: "Because ignorance is bliss!", expire: "1hour", )->encodeAndPost(); ``` --- Original snake\_case API ------------------------ [](#original-snake_case-api) ``` use Cyvax\Clients\PrivatebinSnakeCase; $result = (new PrivatebinSnakeCase()) ->set_url("https://privatebin.net/") ->set_text("Because ignorance is bliss!") ->set_expire("1hour") ->encode_and_post(); ``` Note `PrivatebinSnakeCase` is also available as the alias `\Cyvax\PrivatebinPHP`for compatibility with older versions of the library. --- Constructor Options ------------------- [](#constructor-options) Both clients accept an options array in their constructor: ``` use Cyvax\Clients\Privatebin; $result = (new Privatebin([ "url" => "https://privatebin.net/", "text" => "Because ignorance is bliss!", ]))->encodeAndPost(); ``` --- Attachments ----------- [](#attachments) ``` use Cyvax\Clients\Privatebin; $result = (new Privatebin()) ->setAttachment("/path/to/image.png") ->encodeAndPost(); ``` Note `setAttachment()` throws `PrivatebinException` if the file cannot be read. An optional second argument overrides the attachment filename: ``` ->setAttachment("/path/to/image.png", "screenshot.png") ``` --- SSL Verification ---------------- [](#ssl-verification) SSL verification is enabled by default. Disable it only for local or self-signed instances: ``` use Cyvax\Clients\Privatebin; $result = (new Privatebin()) ->setUrl("https://local.privatebin/") ->setSslVerify(false) ->setText("Hello!") ->encodeAndPost(); ``` The `ssl_verify` key is also accepted in the constructor options array and in `PrivatebinPHP::init()`. --- Pipe-style API -------------- [](#pipe-style-api) `PrivatebinPHPPipe` provides functional-style helper closures. On PHP versions supporting the pipe operator: ``` use Cyvax\Clients\PrivatebinPipe; $result = PrivatebinPipe::init("https://privatebin.net/") |> PrivatebinPipe::text("Hello!") |> PrivatebinPipe::expire("1hour") |> PrivatebinPipe::encodeAndPost(); ``` Without pipe support, it is recommended to use `PrivatebinPHP` or `PrivatebinSnakeCase` directly. If needed, closures can still be invoked manually: ``` use Cyvax\Clients\PrivatebinPipe; $client = PrivatebinPipe::init("https://privatebin.net/"); $client = PrivatebinPipe::text("Hello!")($client); $client = PrivatebinPipe::expire("1hour")($client); $result = PrivatebinPipe::encodeAndPost()($client); ``` --- Fetching and Decrypting ----------------------- [](#fetching-and-decrypting) ``` use Cyvax\Clients\Privatebin; $client = new Privatebin(); // Fetch and decrypt in one call $data = $client->fetchAndDecrypt($pasteId, $b58); echo $data['paste']; // $data['attachment'] and $data['attachment_name'] are set if the paste had an attachment ``` --- Interfaces ========== [](#interfaces) InterfaceNamespaceUsed by`PrivatebinClientInterface``Cyvax\Contracts``PrivatebinPHP` (camelCase)`PrivatebinSnakeCaseClientInterface``Cyvax\Contracts``PrivatebinSnakeCase`Type-hint against an interface when you want to swap implementations: ``` use Cyvax\Contracts\PrivatebinClientInterface; function postPaste(PrivatebinClientInterface $client): array { return $client->setText("Hello!")->encodeAndPost(); } ``` --- Features ======== [](#features) - AES-256-GCM encryption - PBKDF2 SHA-256 key derivation - Zlib compression support - Attachments support - Password-protected pastes - Burn-after-reading support - Discussions support - Multiple formatter support - SSL verification control - Fluent API - Functional pipe helpers - PHP 7.1+ compatible --- Documentation ============= [](#documentation) See the [Wiki](https://github.com/cyvax/Privatebin_PHP/wiki) for full documentation. --- License ======= [](#license) This project is licensed under the MIT license.
