Snorlax

A light-weight RESTful client built on top of Guzzle that gives you full control of your API's resources. Its based on method definitions and parameters for your URLs. See the usage below.

Basic Usage

<?php

use Snorlax\Resource\Resource;
use Snorlax\RestClient;

class PokemonResource extends Resource
{
    public function getBaseUri()
    {
        // You don't want a raw value like this, use an environment variable ;)
        return 'http://localhost/api/pokemons';
    }

    public function getActions()
    {
        return [
            'all' => [
                'method' => 'GET',
                'path' => '/'
            ],
            'get' => [
                'method' => 'GET',
                'path' => '/{0}.json'
            ],
            'create' => [
                'method' => 'POST',
                'path' => '/'
            ]
        ];
    }
}

$client = new RestClient([
    'resources' => [
        'pokemons' => PokemonResource::class
    ]
]);

// GET http://localhost/api/pokemons?sort=id:asc
$response = $client->pokemons->all(['
    'query' => [
        'sort' => 'id:asc'
    ]
']);
// GET http://localhost/api/pokemons/143.json?fields=id,name
$response = $client->pokemons->get(143, [
    'query' => ['fields' => 'id,name']
]);
// POST http://localhost/api/pokemons
$response = $client->pokemons->create([
    'body' => [
        'name' => 'Bulbasaur'
    ]
]);

As you can see, each action on your resource is defined an array with two keys, method, defining the HTTP method for the request and path, which defines the path from the base URI returned by the getBaseUri method. You can mock URLs using environment variables as you wish.

Snorlax assume your API returns JSON, so it already returns an StdClass object with the response, decoded by json_decode. If you want to get the raw object returned by Guzzle, use $client->resource->getLastResponse().

Sending parameters and headers

As said before, Snorlax is built on top of Guzzle, so it works basically the same way on passing headers, query strings and request bodies.

<?php

$pokemons = $client->pokemons->all([
    'query' => [
        'sort' => 'name',
        'offset' => 0,
        'limit' => 150
    ],
    'headers' => [
        'X-Foo' => 'Bar'
    ]
]);

$pokemons = $client->pokemons->create([
    'body' => [
        'name' => 'Ivysaur',
        'attacks' => ['Tackle', 'Leer']
    ]
]);

Changing client options

If you want to set default headers for every request you send to the default guzzle client, just use the headers options on your params config key, just like the Guzzle docs.

<?php

$client = new Snorlax\RestClient([
    'client' => [
        'params' => [
            'headers' => [
                'X-Foo' => 'Bar'
            ],
            'defaults' => [
                'debug' => true
            ],
            'cache' => true
        ]
    ]
]);

Setting a base URI

If all your resources are under the same base URI, you can pass it on the constructor instead of declaring on the resource class.

<?php

$client = new Snorlax\RestClient([
    'client' => [
        'params' => [
            'base_uri' => 'http://localhost/api'
        ]
    ]
]);

API Authorization

Snorlax supports two types of Authorization for now: Bearer and Basic. They're pretty easy to use.

<?php

$client = new Snorlax\RestClient([
    // ...
]);
// Basic authorization
$client->setAuthMethod(new Snorlax\Auth\BasicAuth('user', 'password'));
// Bearer authorization
$client->setAuthMethod(new Snorlax\Auth\BearerAuth('your token'));

Using a custom client

If you don't want to use Guzzle's default client (or want to mock one), Snorlax accepts any class that implements GuzzleHttp\ClientInterface, so just pass your custom client in the constructor. Can be an instance or a callable.

<?php

class MyOwnClient implements GuzzleHttp\ClientInterface
{
    private $config;

    public function __construct(array $params)
    {
        $this->config = $params;
    }
}

// Using a callable to instantiate a new client everytime
$client = new Snorlax\RestClient([
    'client' => [
        'custom' => function(array $params) {
            return new MyOwnClient($params);
        },
        'params' => ['param1' => 'value']
    ]
]);

$client = new Snorlax\RestClient([
    'client' => [
        'custom' => new MyOwnClient(['param1' => 1])
    ]
]);
