Phpcent
=======

[](#phpcent)

Php library to communicate with Centrifugo HTTP API.

Library is published on the Composer:

```
{
    "require": {
        "erp-mgroen/phpcent":"dev-master",
    }
}
```

Full [Centrifugo documentation](https://fzambia.gitbooks.io/centrifugal/content/)

Basic Usage:

```

        $client = new \phpcent\Client("http://localhost:8000/api");
        $client->setSecret("secret key from Centrifugo");
        $client->publish("main_feed", ["message" => "Hello Everybody"]);
        $history = $client->history("main_feed");

```

You can use `phpcent` to create frontend token:

```
	$token = $client->setSecret($pSecret)->generateClientToken($user, $timestamp);
```

Or to create private channel sign:

```
	$sign = $client->setSecret($pSecret)->generateClientToken($client, $channel);
```

Since 1.0.3 phpcent has broadcast implementation.

```
$client->broadcast(['example:entities', 'example:moar'], ['user_id' => 2321321, 'state' => '1']);
```

### SSL

[](#ssl)

In case if your Centrifugo server has invalid SSL certificate, you can use:

```
\phpcent\Transport::setSafety(\phpcent\Transport::UNSAFE);
```

Since 1.0.5 you can use self signed certificate in safe manner:

```
$client = new \phpcent\Client("https://localhost:8000/api");
$client->setSecret("secret key from Centrifugo");
$transport = new \phpcent\Transport();
$transport->setCert("/path/to/certificate.pem");
$client->setTransport($transport);
```

*Note:* Certificate must match with host name in `Client` address (`localhost` in example above).
