A reusable base API client for use with remote services.

Installation

Install using composer:

$ composer require torann/api-client

Creating Clients

Once installed we need to create some clients. First we need to extend the \BaseApiClient\Client class and set endpoint namespace.

Client

<?php

namespace App\BlogApi;

class Client extends \BaseApiClient\Client
{
    /**
     * Namespace for the endpoints
     *
     * @var string
     */
    protected $endpointNamespace = 'App\BlogApi\Endpoints';
}

The $endpointNamespace variable is the prefix for the namespace of our endpoints.

Endpoints

From the endpoint we make our API calls and return the models.

<?php

namespace App\BlogApi\Endpoints;

use App\BlogApi\Models\Post;

use BaseApiClient\Endpoint;
use BaseApiClient\Models\Collection;

class Posts extends Endpoint
{
    /**
     * Get pages for the provided website.
     *
     * @param  array $params
     *
     * @return Collection
     * @throws \BaseApiClient\Exceptions\ApiException
     */
    public function index(array $params = [])
    {
        $response = $this->request->get('posts', $params);

        return new Collection($response, 'Post');
    }

    /**
     * Create a new post.
     *
     * @param  array $params
     *
     * @return Post
     * @throws \BaseApiClient\Exceptions\ApiException
     */
    public function create(array $params)
    {
        $response = $this->request->post('posts', $params);

        return new Post($response);
    }

    /**
     * Delete the provided post.
     *
     * @param  string $id
     *
     * @return bool
     * @throws \BaseApiClient\Exceptions\ApiException
     */
    public function delete($id)
    {
        $response = $this->request->delete(sprintf('posts/%s', $id));

        return $response->getResponseCode() === 200;
    }
}

Models

<?php

namespace App\BlogApi\Models;

use BaseApiClient\Models\Model;

class Post extends Model
{
    /**
     * The attributes that should be mutated to dates.
     *
     * @var array
     */
    protected $dates = [
        'publish_at',
    ];
}

Registering Our Clients

<?php

namespace App\Providers;

use App\BlogApi\Client;
use App\AnotherApi\Client;
use Illuminate\Support\ServiceProvider;

class AppServiceProvider extends ServiceProvider
{
    /**
     * Bootstrap any application services.
     *
     * @return void
     */
    public function boot()
    {
        //
    }

    /**
     * Register any application services.
     *
     * @return void
     */
    public function register()
    {
        $this->registerBlogService();
        $this->registerAnotherService();
    }

    /**
     * Register blog manager services.
     *
     * @return void
     */
    public function registerBlogService()
    {
        $this->app->bind(Client::class, function () {
            return new Client([
                'domain' => 'http://some.fancy.ip/',
                'secret' => env('BLOG_MANAGER_API_SECRET'),
            ]);
        });
    }

    /**
     * Register blog manager services.
     *
     * @return void
     */
    public function registerAnotherService()
    {
        $this->app->bind(Client::class, function () {
            return new Client([
                'domain' => 'http://some.fancy.ip/',
                'secret' => env('ANOTHER_API_SECRET'),
            ]);
        });
    }
}

Calling an Endpoint

Below is an example of using our \App\BlogApi\Client inside of a controller.

<?php

namespace App\Http\Controllers;

use App\BlogApi\Client;
use Illuminate\Http\Request;

class BlogController extends Controller
{
    /**
     * Blog manager client instance.
     *
     * @var \App\BlogApi\Client
     */
    protected $client;

    /**
     * Initializer constructor.
     *
     * @param Client $client
     */
    public function __construct(Client $client)
    {
        parent::__construct();

        $this->client = $client;
    }

    /**
     * Display the specified resource.
     *
     * @param  \Illuminate\Http\Request $request
     *
     * @return \Illuminate\Http\Response
     */
    public function index(Request $request)
    {
        $posts = $this->client->posts->index($request->only('page'));

        return view('posts.index')->with([
            'posts' => $posts->paginate()
        ]);
    }

    /**
     * Display the specified resource.
     *
     * @param  Request $request
     * @param  string  $slug
     *
     * @return \Illuminate\Http\Response
     */
    public function show(Request $request, $slug)
    {
        $post = $this->client->posts->find($slug);

        return view('posts.show')->with([
            'post' => $post
        ]);
    }
}
