A Simple Guzzle Client for a Laravel application

Requirements
============

[](#requirements)

- PHP 7.1 or higher
- Laravel 5.5 or 5.6

Installation
============

[](#installation)

Via composer

```
$ composer require dpc/guzzle-client
```

Usage
=====

[](#usage)

Inject the contract into the class where you need the client:

```
/**
 * @var RequestClientContract
 */
protected $client;

/**
 * @param RequestClientContract $client
 */
public function __construct(RequestClientContract $client)
{
    $this->client = $client;
}
```

You can then use the client by first calling make, to set the base URI - and then populating the request. The client returns a normal PSR ResponseInterface. This means you interact with the response as you would with any Guzzle response.

```
$client = $this->client->make('https://httpbin.org/');

$client->to('get')->withBody([
	'foo' => 'bar'
])->withHeaders([
	'baz' => 'qux'
])->withOptions([
	'allow_redirects' => false
])->asJson()->get();

echo $response->getBody();
echo $response->getStatusCode();
```

Alternatively, you can include both the body, headers and options in a single call.

```
$client = $this->client->make('https://httpbin.org/');

$response = $client->to('get')->with([
    'foo' => 'bar'
], [
    'baz' => 'qux'
], [
    'allow_redirects' => false
])->asFormParams()->get();

echo $response->getBody();
echo $response->getStatusCode();
```

The `asJson()` method will send the data using `json` key in the Guzzle request. (You can use `asFormParams()` to send the request as form params).

Available methods / Example Usage
=================================

[](#available-methods--example-usage)

```
$client = $this->client->make('https://httpbin.org/');

// Get request
$response = $client->to('brotli')->get();

// Post request
$response = $client->to('post')->withBody([
	'foo' => 'bar'
])->asJson()->post();

// Put request
$response = $client->to('put')->withBody([
	'foo' => 'bar'
])->asJson()->put();

// Patch request
$response = $client->to('patch')->withBody([
	'foo' => 'bar'
])->asJson()->patch();

// Delete request
$response = $client->to('delete?id=1')->delete();

// Headers are easily added using the withHeaders method
$response = $client->to('get')->withHeaders([
	'Authorization' => 'Bearer fooBar'
])->asJson()->get();

// Custom options can be specified for the Guzzle instance
$response = $client->to('redirect/5')->withOptions([
	'allow_redirects' => [
		'max' => 5,
		'protocols' => [
			'http',
			'https'
		]
	]
])->get();

// You can also specify the request method as a string
$response = $client->to('post')->withBody([
	'foo' => 'bar'
])->asJson()->request('post');
```

Debugging
=========

[](#debugging)

Using `debug(bool|resource)` before sending a request turns on Guzzle's debugger, more information about that [here](http://docs.guzzlephp.org/en/stable/request-options.html#debug).

The debugger is turned off after every request, if you need to debug multiple requests sent sequentially you will need to turn on debugging for all of them.

**Example**

```
$logFile = './guzzle_client_debug_test.log';
$logFileResource = fopen($logFile, 'w+');

$client->debug($logFileResource)->to('post')->withBody([
	'foo' => 'random data'
])->asJson()->post();

fclose($logFileResource);
```

This writes Guzzle's debug information to `guzzle_client_debug_test.log`.
