PhoneHome
=========

[](#phonehome)

**Software Punt module for remote monitoring and customer service utilities.**

This library provides "phone home" functionality for Software Punt projects. It is intended for managed services and SLA customers.

🪟 This project is open-source so we can be transparent about what data is collected and sent to our servers for monitoring purposes.

✉️ If you have any questions, contact us at .

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

[](#installation)

Install the package using [Composer](https://getcomposer.org/):

```
composer require softwarepunt/phonehome
```

This package is compatible with PHP 8.3+.

Usage
-----

[](#usage)

Use the `PhoneHome` client to send a ping to the receiving API:

```
use SoftwarePunt\PhoneHome\PhoneHome;

$response = (new PhoneHome())
    ->setApiBaseUrl("https://sample.api.com/")
    ->setToken("set_api_token")
    ->setTimeout(30)
    ->send();

if ($response?->sla?->active)
    echo "Have active SLA!";
```

The server response will include SLA details if applicable to the caller.

A ping should be sent every minute or so for monitoring purposes. This is typically performed by a background task or cronjob.

Standalone installation
-----------------------

[](#standalone-installation)

You can set up PhoneHome as a standalone application without integrating it into existing software.

Note

We strongly recommend running under a user with limited privileges. These examples target `www-data` with `/var/www/` as home directory:

```
sudo su www-data -s /bin/bash

```

To do so, install it as a global composer package:

```
composer global require softwarepunt/phonehome --prefer-install=source
```

Then set up a cron job to run every minute (`crontab` example):

```
* * * * * (cd /var/www/.config/composer/vendor/softwarepunt/phonehome; TOKEN=SET_ME /var/www/.config/composer/vendor/bin/sp-phone-home)
```
