After the download, you have to make one include require_once('vendor/autoload.php');. After that you have to import the classes with use statements.
Example:
If you use only one package a project is not needed. But if you use more then one package, without a project it is not possible to import the classes with use statements.
In general, it is recommended to use always a project to download your libraries. In an application normally there is more than one library needed.
Some PHP packages are not free to download and because of that hosted in private repositories.
In this case some credentials are needed to access such packages.
Please use the auth.json textarea to insert credentials, if a package is coming from a private repository.
You can look here for more information.
Some hosting areas are not accessible by a terminal or SSH. Then it is not possible to use Composer.
To use Composer is sometimes complicated. Especially for beginners.
Composer needs much resources. Sometimes they are not available on a simple webspace.
If you are using private repositories you don't need to share your credentials. You can set up everything on our site and then you provide a simple download link to your team member.
Simplify your Composer build process. Use our own command line tool to download the vendor folder as binary. This makes your build process faster and you don't need to expose your credentials for private repositories.
This GitHub repository is the PHP SDK for Avalara's world-class tax service, AvaTax. It uses the AvaTax REST v2 API, which is a fully REST implementation and provides a single client for all AvaTax functionality. For more information about AvaTax REST v2, please visit Avalara's Developer Network or view the online Swagger documentation.

Installing the PHP SDK
The AvaTax PHP SDK is available as a Composer package.
To use the AvaTax PHP SDK from Composer:
Add a composer.json file to your project and link to AvaTax:
Run composer install to download the latest version.
Using the PHP SDK
The PHP SDK uses a fluent interface to define a connection to AvaTax and to make API calls to calculate tax on transactions. Here's an example of connecting to the API.
How to enable logging in the PHP SDK
SDK uses PSR-3, a common interface used for logging capabilities in PHP.
Client would implement the binding on their end like Monolog, Analog etc to enable logging.
By default there is no logging enabled.
All the attributes which are part of log message are in LogObject.php
To enable or disable logging of request and response object, there is a boolean variable logRequestAndResponseBody passed as constructor argument. Default is set to FALSE
Output of logging is in JSON format.
Logging could be enabled on client side by adding logging library like Monolog. This could be done by adding dependency and version in composer.json
By just adding the above configuration, the logging framework will recognise the binding. Now, we will have to provide logging object as contructor parameter to AvaTaxClient. This could be done as below:
The following example shows how we can add configuration to display logs at console (stdout)
This should add logging to SDK and the logs would be displayed on console. If we want to use other configurations where we want logs to be stored in files etc then the handler(StreamHandler in above case) would require changes accordingly.
