FAQ

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.

Twitch API PHP Library

Packagist Version Packagist PHP Version Support Packagist Downloads Packagist License

The Twitch API PHP Library allows you to interact through HTTP to a number of Twitch API endpoints. The library does not format the repsonses of your request so you have full flexability in how to handle the data that is returned from the API.

Documentation & Links

Getting Started

Requirements

Installation

The recommended way to install the Twitch API PHP Library is through Composer.

Example Usage

All calls to the Twitch API require bearer tokens that can be retrieved through the OauthApi class. You can review the types of tokens in the Twitch API docs. The below examples store the Client ID, Secret and Scopes directly in the example, but you should not do this. Store your IDs, Secret, and Scopes in a secure place such as your database or environment variables or alternate settings storage. Security of this information is important. Here is an example of how you can retrieve a token for your application:

Here is an example of how you retrieve a users token:

When you have a user token that is expired, you're able to refresh it instead of requiring them to authenticate again. Here is an example of how you refresh a users token:

Usage of the API Classes

Everything stems from the TwitchApi class. However, if you want to individually instantiate UsersApi, OauthApi, etc. you are free to do so.

The API calls generally return an object implementing ResponseInterface. Since you are getting the full Response object, you'll need to handle its contents, e.g. by decoding then into an object with json_decode(). This library does not assume this is what you want to do, so it does not do this for you automatically. This library simply acts as a middleman between your code and Twitch, providing you with the raw responses the Twitch API returns.

The individual API classes that can be called from TwitchApi correspond to the Twitch API documentation. The rest of the API classes are based on the resources listed here. The methods in the classes generally correspond to the endpoints for each resource. The naming convention was chosen to try and match the Twitch documentation. Each primary endpoint method (not convenience or helper methods) should have an @link annotation with a URL to that endpoint's specific documentation.

Here is a sample of retrieving a users table from their access token:

Developer Tools

PHP Coding Standards Fixer

PHP Coding Standards Fixer (php-cs-fixer) has been added, specifically for the New Twitch API code. A configuration file for it can be found in .php_cs.dist. The ruleset is left at default (PSR-2 at this time). The configuration file mostly just limits it's scope to only the New Twitch API code.

You can run the fixer with vendor/bin/php-cs-fixer fix. However, the easiest way to run the fixer is with the provided git hook.

Git pre-commit Hook

In bin/git/hooks, you'll find a pre-commit hook that you can add to git that will automatically run the php-cs-fixer everytime you commit. The result is that, after the commit is made, any changes that fixer has made are left as unstaged changes. You can review them, then add and commit them.

To install the hook, go to .git/hooks and ln -s ../../bin/git/hooks/pre-commit.
