This is a PHP class for accessing Ruby on Rails REST APIs in an ActiveResource style of coding. The benefit is easier use of RoR-based REST services without having to roll your own CURL-based client each time. Hopefully this class saves a few people some time coding in PHP against RoR-based REST services. It’s by no means an exhaustive port, and some methods are missing, but it does try to cover all the basics.
Note: You will need the php curl extension installed on your system. On Ubuntu, you can install it via:
sudo apt-get install php5-curlCreate a composer.json file with the following:
{
"require": {
"phpactiveresource/phpactiveresource": "dev-master"
}
}
Now load the script via Composer’s autoloader:
<?php
require_once 'vendor/autoload.php';
use ActiveResource\ActiveResource;
class Song extends ActiveResource {
public $site = 'http://localhost:3000/';
public $element_name = 'songs';
}
// etc.
?>
<?php
require_once ('lib/ActiveResource.php');
class Song extends ActiveResource {
var $site = 'http://localhost:3000/';
var $element_name = 'songs';
}
// create a new item
$song = new Song (array ('artist' => 'Joe Cocker', 'title' => 'A Little Help From My Friends'));
$song->save ();
// fetch and update an item, chaining statements
$song->find (44)->set ('title', 'The River')->save ();
// fetch and update, line by line
$song->find (44);
$song->title = 'The River';
$song->save ();
// get all songs
$songs = $song->find ('all');
// delete a song
$song->find (44);
$song->destroy ();
// custom method
$songs = $song->get ('by_year', array ('year' => 1999));
?>
If you want to add extra params to the end of the url eg: an API key, you can set $extra_params
<?php
require_once ('lib/ActiveResource.php');
class Song extends ActiveResource {
var $site = 'http://localhost:3000/';
var $element_name = 'songs';
var $extra_params = '?key=123456789';
}
If you need to add extra http request headers you can set $request_headers
<?php
require_once ('lib/ActiveResource.php');
class Song extends ActiveResource {
var $site = 'http://localhost:3000/';
var $element_name = 'songs';
var $request_headers = array("x-api-key: some-api-key-here");
}
