PHP client for the CueCloud API

CueCloud PHP API Client Library

Installation

The CueCloud PHP API client can be installed using Composer. You shouldn't have any problem installing it following these steps., _(*1)

Composer

You'll need to create a composer file for your project, you can do it editing it yourself or generate it answering the questions that composer would ask you after running:, _(*2)

composer init

You need to set the CueCloud PHP API Client as a required package for your project, using the package identifier (cuecloud/cuecloud-php)., _(*3)

Your composer.json should look something like this:, _(*4)

The result should be something like (pay special attention to the require item):, _(*5)

    "license": "MIT License",
    "authors": [
        {
            "name": "John Doe",

        }
    ],
    "require": {
        "cuecloud/cuecloud-php": "dev-master"
    }
}

Configuration

Configuration is done through the constructor of CueCloud\API\Client. This is mandatory and if not passed none of the API methods will work., _(*6)

use CueCloud\API\Client as CueCloudAPI;

$apiKey = 'your_API_key';
$apiPass = 'your_secret_password';

$client = new CueCloud($apiKey, $apiPass);

Additional parameters could be passed: the version of the API, and the base URL as well (although this parameter is only useful for CueCloud developers)., _(*7)

Running Tests

A collection of integration tests is included. To execute them use phpunit, which should be already installed via composer because it's a development dependency of the CueCloud PHP API client:, _(*24)

phpunit ./tests/

This will use the settings included on phpunit.xml., _(*25)

Alternatively (useful only for CueCloud developers) the integration tests could be ran against their local development server using the settings on phpunit.local.xml, executing:, _(*26)

phpunit -c phpunit.local.xml ./tests/
