SDK Installation
----------------

[](#sdk-installation)

The SDK relies on [Composer](https://getcomposer.org/) to manage its dependencies.

To install the SDK and add it as a dependency to an existing `composer.json` file:

```
composer require "walker-tx/esv-sdk-php"
```

SDK Example Usage
-----------------

[](#sdk-example-usage)

### Example

[](#example)

```
declare(strict_types=1);

require 'vendor/autoload.php';

use WalkerTx\Esv;
use WalkerTx\Esv\Models\Operations;

$sdk = Esv\Esv::builder()
    ->setSecurity(
        ''
    )
    ->build();

$request = new Operations\GetPassageHtmlRequest(
    query: '',
);

$response = $sdk->passages->getHtml(
    request: $request
);

if ($response->passageResponse !== null) {
    // handle response
}
```

Authentication
--------------

[](#authentication)

### Per-Client Security Schemes

[](#per-client-security-schemes)

This SDK supports the following security scheme globally:

NameTypeScheme`apiKey`apiKeyAPI keyTo authenticate with the API the `apiKey` parameter must be set when initializing the SDK. For example:

```
declare(strict_types=1);

require 'vendor/autoload.php';

use WalkerTx\Esv;
use WalkerTx\Esv\Models\Operations;

$sdk = Esv\Esv::builder()
    ->setSecurity(
        ''
    )
    ->build();

$request = new Operations\GetPassageHtmlRequest(
    query: '',
);

$response = $sdk->passages->getHtml(
    request: $request
);

if ($response->passageResponse !== null) {
    // handle response
}
```

Available Resources and Operations
----------------------------------

[](#available-resources-and-operations)

Available methods### [passages](docs/sdks/passages/README.md)

[](#passages)

- [getHtml](docs/sdks/passages/README.md#gethtml) - Get Bible passage HTML
- [search](docs/sdks/passages/README.md#search) - Search Bible passages
- [getAudio](docs/sdks/passages/README.md#getaudio) - Get Bible passage audio
- [getText](docs/sdks/passages/README.md#gettext) - Get Bible passage text

Pagination
----------

[](#pagination)

Some of the endpoints in this SDK support pagination. To use pagination, you make your SDK calls as usual, but the returned object will be a `Generator` instead of an individual response.

Working with generators is as simple as iterating over the responses in a `foreach` loop, and you can see an example below:

```
declare(strict_types=1);

require 'vendor/autoload.php';

use WalkerTx\Esv;

$sdk = Esv\Esv::builder()
    ->setSecurity(
        ''
    )
    ->build();

$responses = $sdk->passages->search(
    query: '',
    pageSize: 20,
    page: 1

);

foreach ($responses as $response) {
    if ($response->statusCode === 200) {
        // handle response
    }
}
```

Error Handling
--------------

[](#error-handling)

Handling errors in this SDK should largely match your expectations. All operations return a response object or throw an exception.

By default an API error will raise a `Errors\APIException` exception, which has the following properties:

PropertyTypeDescription`$message`*string*The error message`$statusCode`*int*The HTTP status code`$rawResponse`*?\\Psr\\Http\\Message\\ResponseInterface*The raw HTTP response`$body`*string*The response contentWhen custom error responses are specified for an operation, the SDK may also throw their associated exception. You can refer to respective *Errors* tables in SDK docs for more details on possible exception types for each operation. For example, the `getHtml` method throws the following exceptions:

Error TypeStatus CodeContent TypeErrors\\Error400, 401application/jsonErrors\\APIException4XX, 5XX\*/\*### Example

[](#example-1)

```
declare(strict_types=1);

require 'vendor/autoload.php';

use WalkerTx\Esv;
use WalkerTx\Esv\Models\Errors;
use WalkerTx\Esv\Models\Operations;

$sdk = Esv\Esv::builder()
    ->setSecurity(
        ''
    )
    ->build();

try {
    $request = new Operations\GetPassageHtmlRequest(
        query: '',
    );

    $response = $sdk->passages->getHtml(
        request: $request
    );

    if ($response->passageResponse !== null) {
        // handle response
    }
} catch (Errors\ErrorThrowable $e) {
    // handle $e->$container data
    throw $e;
} catch (Errors\APIException $e) {
    // handle default exception
    throw $e;
}
```

Server Selection
----------------

[](#server-selection)

### Override Server URL Per-Client

[](#override-server-url-per-client)

The default server can be overridden globally using the `setServerUrl(string $serverUrl)` builder method when initializing the SDK client instance. For example:

```
declare(strict_types=1);

require 'vendor/autoload.php';

use WalkerTx\Esv;
use WalkerTx\Esv\Models\Operations;

$sdk = Esv\Esv::builder()
    ->setServerURL('https://api.esv.org/v3/')
    ->setSecurity(
        ''
    )
    ->build();

$request = new Operations\GetPassageHtmlRequest(
    query: '',
);

$response = $sdk->passages->getHtml(
    request: $request
);

if ($response->passageResponse !== null) {
    // handle response
}
```

Development
===========

[](#development)

Maturity
--------

[](#maturity)

This SDK is in beta, and there may be breaking changes between versions without a major version update. Therefore, we recommend pinning usage to a specific package version. This way, you can install the same version each time without breaking changes unless you are intentionally looking for the latest version.

Contributions
-------------

[](#contributions)

While we value open-source contributions to this SDK, this library is generated programmatically. Any manual changes added to internal files will be overwritten on the next generation. We look forward to hearing your feedback. Feel free to open a PR or an issue with a proof of concept and we'll do our best to include it in a future release.
