*This library requires a minimum PHP version of 8.1*

This is a PHP client library for the Vonage Video API. It extends the [Vonage PHP library](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Vonage/vonage-php-sdk-core). To use this, you'll need a Vonage account. Sign up \[for free at nexmo.com\]\[signup\].

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

[](#installation)

---

To use the client library you'll need to have \[created a Vonage account\]\[signup\].

To install the PHP client library to your project, we recommend using [Composer](https://getcomposer.org/).

```
composer require vonage/video
```

> PLEASE NOTE that this package is not designed to be used as a standalone. It requires the `vonage/client-core` package to work, but you might not have a PSR-11-compliant HTTP Client installed which is required for this. In order to get around this, install `vonage/client-core` first, then `vonage/video`. This will cover all requirements of the package.

If you're new to Composer, here are some resources that you may find useful:

- [Composer's Getting Started page](https://getcomposer.org/doc/00-intro.md) from Composer project's documentation.
- [A Beginner's Guide to Composer](https://scotch.io/tutorials/a-beginners-guide-to-composer) from the good people at ScotchBox.

Usage
-----

[](#usage)

If you're using Composer, make sure the autoloader is included in your project's bootstrap file:

```
require_once "vendor/autoload.php";
```

Create a client with your Vonage application ID and private key:

```
use Vonage\Client;
use Vonage\Client\Credentials\Keypair;
use Vonage\Video\ClientFactory;

$credentials = new Keypair('private-key-string', 'application-id');
$client = new Client($credentials);
$vonageVideoClient = $client->video();
```

For testing purposes you can change the API URL that the client makes requests to from `https://video.api.vonage.com` to something else. To do this, pass the `base_video_url` option when creating the Vonage client:

```
$credentials = new Keypair('private-key-string', 'application-id');
$options = ['base_video_url' => 'https://local-testing.video.example.com'];
$client = new Client($credentials. $options);
```

Examples
--------

[](#examples)

### Creating a new Session

[](#creating-a-new-session)

```
$session = $client->video()->createSession();
echo $session->getSessionId();
```

### Create a new session with an Archive

[](#create-a-new-session-with-an-archive)

```
use Vonage\Video;
use Vonage\Video\Archive\ArchiveMode;

$session = $client->video()->createSession(new SessionOptions(['archiveMode' => ArchiveMode::ALWAYS]));
echo $session->getSessionId();
```

### Generating a Client Token

[](#generating-a-client-token)

```
$token = $client->video()->generateClientToken($session->getSessionId());
```
