Reolink IP camera API client class
----------------------------------

[](#reolink-ip-camera-api-client-class)

A PHP class which provides access to Reolink's IP cameras.

This class can be installed manually or using composer/[packagist](https://packagist.org/packages/mm28ajos/php-reolink-camera-api) for easy inclusion in your projects.

Requirements
------------

[](#requirements)

- a Reolink camera (tested with RLC-420-5MP, Build No. build 19061408, Hardware No. IPC\_51516M5M, Configuration Version v2.0.0.0, Firmware Version v2.0.0.448\_19061408)
- a web server with PHP installed (tested with PHP cli Version 7.3.11-1~deb10u1)
- network connectivity between this web server and the camera and port (normally TCP port 80)

Installation
------------

[](#installation)

You can use [Composer](#composer), [Git](#git) or simply [Download the Release](#download-the-release) to install the API client class.

### Composer

[](#composer)

The preferred method is via [composer](https://getcomposer.org). Follow the [installation instructions](https://getcomposer.org/doc/00-intro.md) if you do not already have composer installed.

Once composer is installed, simply execute this command from the shell in your project directory:

```
composer require mm28ajos/php-reolink-camera-api
```

Or you can manually add the package to your composer.json file:

```
{
    "require": {
        "mm28ajos/php-reolink-camera-api": "^1.0"
    }
}
```

Finally, be sure to include the autoloader in your code:

```
require_once('vendor/autoload.php');
```

### Git

[](#git)

Execute the following `git` command from the shell in your project directory:

```
git clone https://github.com/mm28ajos/PHPReolinkCameraAPI.git
```

When git is done cloning, include the file containing the class like so in your code:

```
require_once('path/to/src/Client.php');
```

### Download the Release

[](#download-the-release)

If you prefer not to use composer or git, you can simply [download the package](https://github.com/mm28ajos/PHPReolinkCameraAPI/archive/master.zip), uncompress the zip file, then include the file containing the class in your code like so:

```
require_once('path/to/src/Client.php');
```

Example usage
-------------

[](#example-usage)

A basic example how to use the class:

```
/**
 * load the class using the composer autoloader
 */
require_once('vendor/autoload.php');

/**
 * initialize the Reolink API connection class, log in to the controller and request disable the motion detection e-mail alert
 * (this example assumes you have already assigned the correct values to the variables used)
 */
$reolink_connection = new \Reolink_API\Client($user, $password, $camera_ip);
$login            = $reolink_connection->login();
if ($login)
{
  $results          = $reolink_connection->toggleMotionEmail(false); // returns a PHP boolean to signale the success/failure of toggeling the motion e-mail alert
  $logout            = $reolink_connection->$logout();
}
```

Please refer to the `examples/` directory for some more detailed examples which you can use as a starting point for your own PHP code.
