AwsGen - PHP classes for the [AWS SDK](https://github.com/aws/aws-sdk-php)
==========================================================================

[](#awsgen---php-classes-for-the-aws-sdk)

AwsGen generates strictly typed PHP classes that allow you to use Amazon Web Services with objects instead of arrays.

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

[](#installation)

`\Rtek\AwsGen` has no runtime component, so require it as a development dependency:

```
$ composer require --dev rtek/aws-gen

```

Why Bother?
-----------

[](#why-bother)

AWS has approximately 170 services with ~18,000 types. The SDK provides access to these services using `\ArrayAccess` and rich runtime [metadata](https://github.com/aws/aws-sdk-php/tree/master/src/data), but does not offer code-completion by realizing the API in PHP classes\*.

`\Rtek\AwsGen` will generate PHP classes for the services and operations that you choose, while allowing you to use the underlying SDK at all times.

You can treat these classes as read-only, or embed them in your project as the basis for more sophisticated wrappers.

\*If you used AwsGen for all services, there would be ~10x the number of files as the SDK

An Example: S3 Service
