==============

[](#tcgdex-php-sdk)

This is the SDK used to communicate with the Open source [TCGdex API](https://www.github.com/tcgdex/cards-database) using PHP

[Full API/SDK documentation in progress here](https://tcgdex.dev/sdks/php?ref=sdk_php_readme)

Getting Started
---------------

[](#getting-started)

install the SDK using:

```
composer require tcgdex/sdk
# if you have no PSR 16/17/18 implementations add the following packages
composer require symfony/cache nyholm/psr7 kriswallsmith/buzz
# they will be automaticly setup for the project
# symfony/cache      === PSR16
# nyholm/psr7        === PSR17
# kriswallsmith/buzz === PSR18
```

Quick usage
-----------

[](#quick-usage)

```
use TCGdex\TCGdex;

// Is you are using your own PSRs implementations add theses before loading the class
TCGdex::$cache = /* PSR16 CacheInterface */;
TCGdex::$requestFactory = /* PSR17 RequestFactoryInterface */;
TCGdex::$responseFactory = /* PSR17 ResponseFactoryInterface */;
TCGdex::$client = /* PSR18 ClientInterface */;

// initialize the SDK with the language
$tcgdex = new TCGdex("en");

// Fetch the cards !
$card = $tcgdex->fetchCard('1', 'Sword & Shield');
```
