It includes code from the [CsaGuzzleBundle](https://github.com/csarrazi/CsaGuzzleBundle) for testing, which in the future will be a normal dependency (see [csarrazi/CsaGuzzleBundle#169](https://github.com/csarrazi/CsaGuzzleBundle/issues/169)). Dependencies ------------ [](#dependencies) - [Composer](https://getcomposer.org/) - PHP 7 Running tests ------------- [](#running-tests) To run all tests locally: ``` make test ``` Installation ------------ [](#installation) Execute `composer require elife/api-sdk`. Usage (ApiClient) ----------------- [](#usage-apiclient) The `eLife\ApiSdk\ApiClient` namespace provides separate clients for each part of the eLife API. Each method on an API client represents an endpoint. You can pass default headers to an API client, and/or to each API client method. You should provide an `Accept` header stating which versions you support. API clients always return instances of `GuzzleHttp\Promise\PromiseInterface`, which wrap instances of `eLife\ApiClient\Result`, which in turn wrap the JSON response. `eLife\ApiClient\Result` provides integration with the [JMESPath](http://jmespath.org/) (using [jmespath.php](https://github.com/jmespath/jmespath.php)), to allow easy searching of JSON responses. ### Basic example [](#basic-example) To list the Labs Post IDs that appear on the first page of the endpoint: ``` use eLife\ApiSdk\ApiClient\LabsClient; use eLife\ApiClient\HttpClient\Guzzle6HttpClient; use eLife\ApiClient\MediaType; use GuzzleHttp\Client as Guzzle; $guzzle = new Guzzle(['base_uri' => 'https://api.elifesciences.org/']); $httpClient = new Guzzle6HttpClient($guzzle); $labsClient = new LabsClient($httpClient); var_dump($labsClient->listPosts(['Accept' => new MediaType(LabsClient::TYPE_POST_LIST, 1)])->wait()->search('items[*].id')); ``` ### Health Score 43 — FairBetter than 91% of packages Maintenance59 Moderate activity, may be stable Popularity28 Limited adoption so far Community24 Small or concentrated contributor base Maturity53 Maturing project, gaining track record Bus Factor2 2 contributors hold 50%+ of commits How is this calculated?**Maintenance (25%)** — Last commit recency, latest release date, and issue-to-star ratio.
