\#PHP Eventbrite API Client Library
-----------------------------------

[](#php-eventbrite-api-client-library)

WARNING: This library uses Eventbrite API endpoints that have been deprecated (as of April 2015).
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

[](#warning-this-library-uses-eventbrite-api-endpoints-that-have-been-deprecated-as-of-april-2015)

See Eventbrite's developer site for updated info on how to use thier new APIs:

Requirements:
-------------

[](#requirements)

### API key

[](#api-key)

Eventbrite API keys are available here:

### User key

[](#user-key)

Eventbrite User\_keys are optional. They are only required if you need to access private data. Eventbrite users can find their user\_key here:

Examples:
=========

[](#examples)

### Load the API Client library

[](#load-the-api-client-library)

```
require 'Eventbrite.php';

```

### Initialize the client by setting your authentication tokens

[](#initialize-the-client-by-setting-your-authentication-tokens)

Add your authentication tokens to make this example work:

```
$eb_client = new Eventbrite( array('app_key'=>'YOUR_APP_KEY',
                                   'user_key'=>'YOUR_USER_KEY'));

```

### Initialization using OAuth2.0 tokens

[](#initialization-using-oauth20-tokens)

You can also initialize the API client with an OAuth2.0 "access\_token":

```
$eb_client = new Eventbrite( array('access_token'=>'YOUR_ACCESS_TOKEN'));

```

Or, initialize the client by using an intermediary OAuth2.0 "access\_code", which will automaticaly be exchanged for an OAuth2.0 "access\_token":

```
$eb_client = new Eventbrite(array('app_key'=>'YOUR_API_KEY',
                                  'client_secret'=>'YOUR_CLIENT_SECRET',
                                  'access_code'=>'YOUR_ACCESS_CODE' ));

```

For more information and usage examples regarding OAuth2.0, see our [OAUTH2-README.md](https://github.com/ryanjarvinen/eventbrite.php/blob/master/OAUTH2-README.md)

Documentented API methods will be available on the client object
----------------------------------------------------------------

[](#documentented-api-methods-will-be-available-on-the-client-object)

See Eventbrite's [API Docs](http://developer.eventbrite.com/doc) for more information about the available method calls. Request parameters should be encapsulated in an array of key/value pairs as in the examples below:

### event\_get example

[](#event_get-example)

```
// request an event by adding a valid EVENT_ID value here:
$resp = $eb_client->event_get( array('id' => 'EVENT_ID') );

// print a ticket widget for the event:
print( Eventbrite::ticketWidget($resp->event) );

```

### event\_search example

[](#event_search-example)

```
$search_params = array(
    'max' => 2,
    'city' => 'San Francisco',
    'region' => 'CA',
    'country' => 'US'
);
$resp = $eb_client->event_search( $search_params );

```

### event\_new example

[](#event_new-example)

```
$new_event_params = array(
    'title' => 'My test event',
    'description' => 'testing event creation, remember not to set the privacy or visibility of test events to "public".',
    'start_date' => date('Y-m-d H:i:s', time() + (7 * 24 * 60 * 60)),
    'end_date' => date('Y-m-d H:i:s', time() + (7 * 24 * 60 * 60) + (2 * 60 * 60) )
);
try{
    $response = $eb_client->event_new($new_event_params);
}catch( Exception $e ){
    // application-specific error handling goes here
    $response = $e->error;
}

```
