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.

Informations about the package collection-xml

The missing XML support for Laravel's Collection class.

This package is designed to work with the Laravel framework.

Quick start

Collection to xml

Convert data inside a Laravel Collection into valid XML:

Collection to soap xml

Heads up, this method is the most temperamental part of this package. Please thoroughly check your SOAP endpoint and requirements for best usage.

Please note: the SoapFactory class will ping the $fullUrl to see if it is valid as it builds the SOAP xml. It will not trigger an api interaction, but you will experience an exception if your url is invalid.

Array to xml

Convert an array into xml without using a collection:

Helpers, methods, and arguments

Helper

array_to_xml($array, $root = '')

The $root argument allows you to customize the root xml element. Default is <root>.

Collection method

->toXml($root)

See array_to_xml() above.

Collection method

->toSoapXml($root = '', $soapRoot = '', $fullUrl, array $options = [])

The $root argument allows you to customize the inner root xml element. Default is <root>.

$soapRoot is the outer xml root element. Default is xmlBody.

$fullUrl will be the fully qualified SOAP endpoint e.g. https://yourwebserver/service.asmx?wsdl. Please note: the SoapFactory class will ping the $fullUrl to see if it is valid as it builds the SOAP xml. It will not trigger an api interaction, but you will experience an exception if your url is invalid.

$options will be an array of valid options for PHP's SoapClient class. By default ['trace' => 1] is set.

Purpose

Laravel has always favored json over xml with its api structure. Inevitably, developers will be required to interact with files or apis that require xml, and they are often left to figure it out for themselves.

This package aims to bring painless xml support to Laravel's Collection class, and bring a few useful helpers along.
