PBS Station Manager PHP Library
===============================

[](#pbs-station-manager-php-library)

This library abstracts interactions with the [PBS Station Manager API](https://docs.pbs.org/display/SM/API).

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

[](#installation)

Install via composer:

```
composer require openpublicmedia/pbs-station-manager-php
```

Use
---

[](#use)

The primary class provided by this library is the `OpenPublicMedia\PbsStationManager\Client`. A `Client` instance can be used to query the API in various ways. An API key and secret is optional, as the Station Manager API provides public and internal endpoints.

### Response data structures

[](#response-data-structures)

The API currently only support retrieving station information so `Client`provides two methods:

- `getStation($id)`
- `getStations()`

Both methods return `OpenPublicMedia\PbsStationManager\Entity\Station` instances. A single instance for the singular getter and an array of instances for the plural getter.

### Examples

[](#examples)

#### Creating a client

[](#creating-a-client)

```
use OpenPublicMedia\PbsStationManager\Client;

$api_key = 'xxxxxxxxxxxxxx';
$api_secret = 'xxxxxxxxxxx';

$client = new Client($api_key, $api_secret);
```

#### Getting a single Station

[](#getting-a-single-station)

```
$station = $client->getStation('271a9ab7-e9ed-4fec-9fe9-e46c97a3f8f0');
