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.

Obtaining an Access Token

To get an access token you first have to register your application. Head over to https://dev.xing.com and register yourself for a Xing application to get the consumer key/secret which you have to use with this package.

Then you have to call the following functions in this order:

  1. getRequestToken

    Insert your consumer_key and your consumer_secret into the config array.

    Leave the token and token_secret blank.

    Then create a new XingSdk Object with this config.

    Then call the function with an url where the users are being redirected to after accepting the permissions. This URL is the callback-url.

    The function returns an array with three values.

    Save request_token and request_token_secret temporary. You'll need them in the next step.

    Redirect the user to the authorize_url. This is the page where the user clicks "accept".

  2. getAccessToken

    This function should be executed at the callback-url.

    Insert your consumer_key and your consumer_secret into the config array.

    Insert the request_token and request_token_secret from the previous field into the config array.

    Then create a new XingSdk Object with this config.

    Then call the function using the value of the GET-Parameter oauth_verifier, which has been set by XING.

    The function returns an array containing the access_token and the access_token_secret for the user, which has logged in. Save these values in your database or somewhere else where you can access them later.

Making calls to the XING-API

Now that you have obtained an access token, you can call the API. For example let's get the profile details of the user, which has logged in.

  1. Insert your consumer_key and your consumer_secret into the config array. Insert the access_token and access_token_secret from the user, which you have saved in your database,into the config array.

  2. Create a new XingSDK Object.

  3. Get the Guzzle Client from the XingSDK Object.

  4. Make the request.

  5. Bonus: Get the request in a usable format.

And that's it.

For help how to use other request methods (GET/POST/PUT/DELETE/PATCH) or send content with your request, see the Guzzle Documentation.
