Zero dependencies, native cURL only. **Requires PHP 8.1+** --- Installation ------------ [](#installation) ``` composer require orbitconnect/orbit-server-php ``` --- Initialization -------------- [](#initialization) ``` use OrbitConnect\Server\OrbitServer; $orbit = new OrbitServer(secretKey: 'sk_live_...'); ``` ### With request signing (recommended for production) [](#with-request-signing-recommended-for-production) ``` $orbit = new OrbitServer( secretKey: 'sk_live_...', signingSecret: 'whsec_...', ); ``` When a `signingSecret` is provided, every request is signed with HMAC-SHA256 via `x-request-signature` and `x-request-timestamp` headers. The secret must match `SIGNING_SECRET` on your OrbitConnect backend. --- Namespaces ---------- [](#namespaces) NamespaceAccess viaCoversUsers`$orbit->users`App user CRUD, token issuanceConversations`$orbit->conversations`Direct & group conversations, participantsMessages`$orbit->messages`Send, edit, react, pin, search, syncCalls`$orbit->calls`Initiate, accept, reject, metrics, recordingsMeetings`$orbit->meetings`Schedule, start, end, participants, recordingsMedia`$orbit->media`Upload, stream, access control, recordingsRealtime`$orbit->realtime`Sessions, transitions, events, contextWebhooks`$orbit->webhooks`Endpoints, subscriptions, deliveries, eventsBilling`$orbit->billing`Wallet, transactions, usage, invoices--- Usage ----- [](#usage) ### Users [](#users) ``` // Create an app user $user = $orbit->users->create([ 'external_id' => 'user_123', 'display_name' => 'Jane Doe', 'metadata' => ['plan' => 'pro'], ]); // Issue a short-lived token for your frontend (pass to client SDK) $token = $orbit->users->createToken($user['id'], ttl: 3600); // Fetch by your own ID $user = $orbit->users->getByExternalId('user_123'); // Deactivate (soft-delete, preserves history) $orbit->users->deactivate($user['id']); ``` ### Conversations & Messages [](#conversations--messages) ``` // Start a direct conversation $conv = $orbit->conversations->create( ['type' => 'direct', 'participant_id' => $otherUserId], $actingUserId ); // Send a message $msg = $orbit->messages->send([ 'conversation_id' => $conv['id'], 'content' => 'Hey there!', 'type' => 'text', ], $actingUserId); // Reply $orbit->messages->reply([ 'conversation_id' => $conv['id'], 'content' => 'Hello back!', 'reply_to_message_id' => $msg['id'], ], $actingUserId); // Paginate messages $messages = $orbit->messages->list($conv['id'], [ 'limit' => 50, 'afterSequence' => 100, ], $actingUserId); // Search $results = $orbit->messages->search($conv['id'], 'hello', $actingUserId); ``` ### Calls [](#calls) ``` $call = $orbit->calls->initiate([ 'callee_id' => $calleeId, 'type' => 'video', ], $callerId); $orbit->calls->accept($call['id'], $calleeId); $orbit->calls->end($call['id'], $callerId); ``` ### Meetings [](#meetings) ``` $meeting = $orbit->meetings->create([ 'title' => 'Team standup', 'scheduled_at' => '2026-05-02T09:00:00Z', ], $hostId); $orbit->meetings->addParticipant($meeting['id'], $guestId, $hostId); $orbit->meetings->start($meeting['id'], $hostId); // Generate a join token for a guest $token = $orbit->meetings->generateToken($meeting['id'], [ 'app_user_id' => $guestId, 'role' => 'participant', ], $hostId); $orbit->meetings->end($meeting['id'], $hostId); ``` ### Media [](#media) ``` // Get a pre-signed upload URL $session = $orbit->media->generateUploadUrl('video/mp4', $userId); // PUT your file to $session['upload_path'] // Get a stream URL once processing is done $stream = $orbit->media->getStreamUrl($mediaId, $userId); // Grant another user download access $orbit->media->grantAccess($mediaId, [ 'app_user_id' => $otherUserId, 'access_type' => 'download', ], $userId); ``` ### Webhooks [](#webhooks) ``` $wh = $orbit->webhooks->create('https://yourapp.com/webhooks/orbit'); $orbit->webhooks->subscribe($wh['id'], 'message.sent'); $orbit->webhooks->subscribe($wh['id'], 'call.ended'); // Publish a custom event $orbit->webhooks->publish('user.upgraded', ['user_id' => $userId, 'plan' => 'pro']); // Rotate the signing secret $orbit->webhooks->rotateSecret($wh['id']); ``` ### Billing [](#billing) ``` $wallet = $orbit->billing->getWallet(); echo $wallet['balance']; $orbit->billing->topUp(50.00); $invoice = $orbit->billing->generateInvoice( new DateTime('2026-04-01'), new DateTime('2026-04-30'), ); ``` --- Error handling -------------- [](#error-handling) All API errors throw `OrbitConnect\Server\OrbitServerException`: ``` use OrbitConnect\Server\OrbitServerException; try { $meeting = $orbit->meetings->get('mtg_unknown', $userId); } catch (OrbitServerException $e) { echo $e->status; // HTTP status code, e.g. 404 echo $e->errorCode; // API error code string, e.g. "resource_not_found" echo $e->getMessage(); } ``` --- Requirements ------------ [](#requirements) - PHP 8.1+ - `ext-curl` - `ext-json` --- License ------- [](#license) MIT ### Health Score 37 — LowBetter than 81% of packages Maintenance92 Actively maintained with recent releases Popularity2 Limited adoption so far Community6 Small or concentrated contributor base Maturity42 Maturing project, gaining track record Bus Factor1 Top contributor holds 100% of commits — single point of failure How is this calculated?**Maintenance (25%)** — Last commit recency, latest release date, and issue-to-star ratio.
