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.

Please rate this library. Is it a good library?

Simplon/Helium

For one of my projects I had the need to talk to Urbain Airship's Push API.
So, I took today off to write an abstract project as composer package so that it is easy to implement in other projects too.

Setup

Since its a composer package all you need to to do is require it within your composer package definitions and install/update it:

If you dont know what is you should have a look at Composer's Webpage.

Anything else needed?

Since we're relying here on Urban Airship's Push API you should have registered yourself to receive:

1x Key
1x Secret Key
1x Master Secret Key

If you did not register yourself yet just head over here and register for Urbain Airship's.
The basic plan is free and offers 1,000,000 free notifications / month. That gets us started. Sweet!

A Simple Example

1. Add Device Token

The simplest creation of a device token would be as followed:

You're cool if your response results in "OK". If not, dont worry you're still cool but your token didn't get registered unfortunately.
Make sure that you used the correct authentication keys.

2. Send Push Notification

Based on the device token we just registered we can now send a notification to the device via:

If all went through your response should result in something like:

Meanwhile you also should have received your push notification on your device.

An Example with more options

Well, as always there is more. Registering/managing a device token offers the following other options:

Now, if we come back to sending a push notification to our device we can use the instead of the :

We also could have used to define our notification recipients.
