[![Build Status](https://camo.githubusercontent.com/28a0e8113eecf8a02667795d6129508527a42ecb66022c6496218477f6cc9dcc/68747470733a2f2f7365637572652e7472617669732d63692e6f72672f7263726f77652f48697070792e706e67)](http://travis-ci.org/rcrowe/Hippy)

Hippy is a simple PHP client for sending messages to a HipChat room. It is designed for incidental notifications from an application.

Hippy does one thing and one thing well, sending messages to a Hipchat room.

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

[](#installation)

Add `rcrowe\hippy` as a requirement to composer.json:

```
{
    "require": {
        "rcrowe/hippy": "0.6.*"
    }
}
```

Update your packages with `composer update` or install with `composer install`.

Usage
-----

[](#usage)

```
$transport = new rcrowe\Hippy\Transport\Guzzle($token, $room, $from);
$hippy = new rcrowe\Hippy\Client($transport);

$message = new rcrowe\Hippy\Message(true, rcrowe\Hippy\Message::BACKGROUND_YELLOW);
$message->setText('test');

$hippy->send($message);
```

Hippy also provides a static interface just like v0.5 and below.

```
use rcrowe\Hippy\Facade as Hippy;

Hippy::init($token, $room, $from);
Hippy::html('test failed');
```

Maybe you want to add the message to a queue and send it at the end.

```
Hippy::init($token, $room, $from);
Hippy::add('test 1');
Hippy::addHtml('test 2');
Hippy::go();
```
