vdocipher/playback-token
========================

[](#vdocipherplayback-token)

VdoCipher playback token generator.

Install
-------

[](#install)

```
composer require vdocipher/playback-token
```

Requires PHP 8.0+.

Quick start
-----------

[](#quick-start)

```
use VdoCipher\Playback;

$pb = new Playback($apiKey, [
    'apiKeyId' => 'your-api-key-id',
    'videoId'  => '1234567890abcdef1234567890abcdef',
    'userId'   => '27083',
]);

$token = $pb->getToken();
// Use $token in your VdoCipher player URL.
```

Error handling
--------------

[](#error-handling)

`getToken()` throws `VdoCipher\PlaybackException` (extends `\InvalidArgumentException`) on the first validation error. Catch it where you can produce a useful response — typically your controller or job handler:

```
use VdoCipher\Playback;
use VdoCipher\PlaybackException;

try {
    $token = (new Playback($apiKey, $payload))->getToken();
} catch (PlaybackException $e) {
    error_log('VdoCipher token error: ' . $e->getMessage());
    http_response_code(400);
    return;
}
```
