The heavy lifting happens on the [Glimpse API](https://glimpseimg.com): stateless, nothing stored, your bytes never linger. You require a single package and go: ``` composer require mathiasgrimm/glimpse-php ``` ``` use MathiasGrimm\GlimpsePhp\Client; use MathiasGrimm\GlimpsePhp\ImageFormat; use Illuminate\Http\Client\Factory; $glimpse = new Client(new Factory, 'your-api-token'); $avif = $glimpse->convert(file_get_contents('photo.jpg'), ImageFormat::Avif); file_put_contents('photo.avif', $avif->bytes); ``` That is the whole integration: no extensions to compile, no binaries to pin, no queue of shell-outs to babysit. Every method returns typed, immutable results. Documentation ------------- [](#documentation) The full documentation lives at **[glimpseimg.com/docs/sdk](https://glimpseimg.com/docs/sdk)**: - [Installation](https://glimpseimg.com/docs/sdk/installation): requirements and optional extensions. - [Authentication](https://glimpseimg.com/docs/sdk/authentication): building the client and verifying tokens. - [Methods](https://glimpseimg.com/docs/sdk/methods): every method and the typed objects it returns. - [Laravel](https://glimpseimg.com/docs/sdk/laravel): container wiring and `Http::fake()` in tests. - [Errors](https://glimpseimg.com/docs/sdk/errors): the exception hierarchy. Upgrading from v1? The [upgrade guide](https://glimpseimg.com/docs/sdk/upgrade) covers the move from array returns to typed objects. Development ----------- [](#development) ``` composer install composer test # Pint (check), PHPStan, and the Pest suite ``` ### Releasing [](#releasing) ``` make release VERSION=vX.Y.Z ``` Runs the test suite, tags `VERSION`, pushes the tag, and creates the GitHub release. Packagist picks the new tag up through the GitHub webhook. License ------- [](#license) glimpse-php is open-source software licensed under the [MIT license](LICENSE). --- Prefer the terminal? [**glimpse-cli**](https://github.com/mathiasgrimm/glimpse-cli) is the first-party CLI: the same API from your shell and CI, no PHP code required.
