Getting Started with Onfon Developer V1

Introduction

Authentication

Requests made to our APIs must be authenticated, there are two ways to do this:

1. Authenticating using your API apiUsername and apiPassword - Basic Auth
2. Authenticating using an Auth Token - Bearer Token

Method 1: Basic Auth

Basic Authentication is a method for an HTTP user agent (e.g., a web browser) to provide a apiUsername and apiPassword when making a request.

When employing Basic Authentication, users include an encoded string in the Authorization header of each request they make. The string is used by the request’s recipient to verify users’ identity and rights to access a resource.

The Authorization header follows this format:

Authorization: Basic base64(apiUsername:apiPassword)

So if your apiUsername and apiPassword are onfon and !@pas123, the combination is onfon:!@pas123, and when base64 encoded, this becomes b25mb246IUBwYXMxMjM=. So requests made by this user would be sent with the following header:

Authorization: Basic b25mb246IUBwYXMxMjM=

Method 2: Bearer Tokens

This authentication stategy allows you to authenticate using JSON Web Token `JWT that will expire after given duration.

Each Access Token is a JWT, an encoded JSON object with three parts: the header, the payload, and the signature. The following is an example Access Token generated for Conversations

Authorization: Bearer eyJhbGciOiJIUzI1NiIsInR5cCI6IkpXVCJ9.eyJzdWIiOiIxMjM0NTY3ODkwIiwibmFtZSI6IkpvaG4gRG9lIiwiaWF0IjoxNTE2MjM5MDIyfQ.SflKxwRJSMeKKF2QT4fwpMeJf36POk6yJV_adQssw5c

Getting the token

To generate the token, make a POST request to /v1/authorization endpoint with your apiUsername and apiPassword This request should be made from your server and not on the client side such as browser or mobile environment.

You will receive a JSON similar to below:

{ "token": "eyJhbGciOiJIUzI1NiIsInR5cCI6IkpXVCJ9.eyJzdWIiOiIxMjM0NTY3ODkwIiwibmFtZSI6IkpvaG4gRG9lIiwiaWF0IjoxNTE2MjM5MDIyfQ.SflKxwRJSMeKKF2QT4fwpMeJf36POk6yJV_adQssw5c", "validDurationSeconds": 3600}

You can use the token received to make API calls. The token will be valid for value of validDurationSeconds, before which you should generate a new token.

Making an API call

You will be required to pass the token in Authorization header prefixed by Bearer when calling other endpoints.

Example Authorization: Bearer eyJhbGciOiJIUzI1NiIsInR5cCI6IkpXVCJ9.eyJzdWIiOiIxMjM0NTY3ODkwIiwibmFtZSI6IkpvaG4gRG9lIiwiaWF0IjoxNTE2MjM5MDIyfQ.SflKxwRJSMeKKF2QT4fwpMeJf36POk6yJV_adQssw5c

Building

The generated code has dependencies over external libraries like UniRest and JsonMapper. JsonMapper requires docblock annotations like @var, @maps, and @factory to map JSON responses with our class definitions. Hence the docblocks in generated code cannot be disabled by deactivating the PHP configurations like opcache.save_comments. These dependencies are defined in the composer.json file that comes with the SDK. To resolve these dependencies, we use the Composer package manager which requires PHP greater than or equal to 7.2 installed in your system. Visit https://getcomposer.org/download/ to download the installer file for Composer and run it in your system. Open command prompt and type composer --version. This should display the current version of the Composer installed if the installation was successful.

• Using command line, navigate to the directory containing the generated files (including composer.json) for the SDK.
• Run the command composer install. This should install all the required dependencies and create the vendor directory in your project directory.

Configuring CURL Certificate Path in php.ini

:information_source: Note This is for Windows users only.

CURL used to include a list of accepted CAs, but no longer bundles ANY CA certs. So by default it will reject all SSL certificates as unverifiable. You will have to get your CA's cert and point curl at it. The steps are as follows:

1. Download the certificate bundle (.pem file) from https://curl.haxx.se/docs/caextract.html on to your system.
2. Add curl.cainfo = "PATH_TO/cacert.pem" to your php.ini file located in your php installation. “PATH_TO” must be an absolute path containing the .pem file.

Installation

The following section explains how to use the OnfonDeveloperV1Lib library in a new project.

1. Open Project in an IDE

Open an IDE for PHP like PhpStorm. The basic workflow presented here is also applicable if you prefer using a different editor or IDE.

Click on Open in PhpStorm to browse to your generated SDK directory and then click OK.

2. Add a new Test Project

Create a new directory by right clicking on the solution name as shown below:

Name the directory as "test".

Add a PHP file to this project.

Name it "testSDK".

Depending on your project setup, you might need to include composer's autoloader in your PHP code to enable auto loading of classes.

It is important that the path inside require_once correctly points to the file autoload.php inside the vendor directory created during dependency installations.

After this you can add code to initialize the client library and acquire the instance of a Controller class. Sample code to initialize the client library and use the Controller methods is given in the subsequent sections.

3. Run the Test Project

To run your project you must set the Interpreter for your project. Interpreter is the PHP engine installed on your computer.

Open Settings from File menu.

Select PHP from within Languages & Frameworks.

Browse for Interpreters near the Interpreter option and choose your interpreter.

Once the interpreter is selected, click OK.

To run your project, right click on your PHP file inside your Test project and click on Run.

Test the SDK

Unit tests in this SDK can be run using PHPUnit.

1. First install the dependencies using composer including the require-dev dependencies.
2. Run vendor\bin\phpunit --verbose from commandline to execute tests. If you have installed PHPUnit globally, run tests using phpunit --verbose instead.

You can change the PHPUnit test configuration in the phpunit.xml file.

Initialize the API Client

Note: Documentation for the client can be found here.

The following parameters are configurable for the API Client:

The API client can be initialized as follows:

Authorization

This API uses OAuth 2 Bearer token.
