Mailgun-PHP
===========
This is the Mailgun PHP SDK. This SDK contains methods for easily interacting
with the Mailgun API.
Below are examples to get you started. For additional examples, please see our
official documentation
at http://documentation.mailgun.com
[![Latest Stable Version](https://poser.pugx.org/mailgun/mailgun-php/v/stable.png)](https://packagist.org/packages/mailgun/mailgun-php)
[![Build Status](https://travis-ci.org/mailgun/mailgun-php.png)](https://travis-ci.org/mailgun/mailgun-php)
Installation
------------
To install the SDK, you will need to be using [Composer](http://getcomposer.org/)
in your project.
If you aren't using Composer yet, it's really simple! Here's how to install
composer and the Mailgun SDK.
```PHP
# Install Composer
curl -sS https://getcomposer.org/installer | php
# Add Mailgun as a dependency
php composer.phar require mailgun/mailgun-php:~2.0
```
You do also need to choose what library to use when you are sending http messages. Consult the
[php-http/client-implementation](https://packagist.org/providers/php-http/client-implementation) virtual package to
find adapters to use. For more information about virtual packages please refer to
[Httplug](http://docs.httplug.io/en/latest/virtual-package/). Example:
```bash
php composer.phar require php-http/guzzle6-adapter:^1.0
```
When creating a new `Mailgun` object you must provide an instance of the `HttpClient`.
```php
$client = new \Http\Adapter\Guzzle6\Client();
$mailgun = new \Mailgun\Mailgun('api_key', $client);
```
You could also rely on the [auto discovery feature of Httplug](http://docs.php-http.org/en/latest/discovery.html). This
means that we will try to find an installed client automatically.
**For shared hosts without SSH access, check out our [Shared Host Instructions](SharedHostInstall.md).**
Next, require Composer's autoloader, in your application, to automatically
load the Mailgun SDK in your project:
```PHP
require 'vendor/autoload.php';
use Mailgun\Mailgun;
```
Usage
-----
Here's how to send a message using the SDK:
```php
# First, instantiate the SDK with your API credentials and define your domain.
$mg = new Mailgun("key-example");
$domain = "example.com";
# Now, compose and send your message.
$mg->sendMessage($domain, array('from' => 'bob@example.com',
'to' => 'sally@example.com',
'subject' => 'The PHP SDK is awesome!',
'text' => 'It is so simple to send a message.'));
```
Or obtain the last 25 log items:
```php
# First, instantiate the SDK with your API credentials and define your domain.
$mg = new Mailgun("key-example");
$domain = "example.com";
# Now, issue a GET against the Logs endpoint.
$mg->get("$domain/log", array('limit' => 25,
'skip' => 0));
```
Response
--------
The results, provided by the endpoint, are returned as an object, which you
can traverse like an array.
Example:
```php
$mg = new Mailgun("key-example");
$domain = "example.com";
$result = $mg->get("$domain/log", array('limit' => 25,
'skip' => 0));
$httpResponseCode = $result->http_response_code;
$httpResponseBody = $result->http_response_body;
# Iterate through the results and echo the message IDs.
$logItems = $result->http_response_body->items;
foreach($logItems as $logItem){
echo $logItem->message_id . "\n";
}
```
Example Contents:
**$httpResponseCode** will contain an integer. You can find how we use HTTP response
codes in our documentation:
http://documentation.mailgun.com/api-intro.html?highlight=401#errors
**$httpResponseBody** will contain an object of the API response. In the above
example, a var_dump($result) would contain the following:
```
object(stdClass)#26 (2) {
["http_response_body"]=>
object(stdClass)#26 (2) {
["total_count"]=>
int(12)
["items"]=>
array(1) {
[0]=>
object(stdClass)#31 (5) {
["hap"]=>
string(9) "delivered"
["created_at"]=>
string(29) "Tue, 20 Aug 2013 20:24:34 GMT"
["message"]=>
string(66) "Delivered: me@samples.mailgun.org → travis@mailgunhq.com 'Hello'"
["type"]=>
string(4) "info"
["message_id"]=>
string(46) "20130820202406.24739.21973@samples.mailgun.org"
}
}
}
}
```
Debugging
---------
Debugging the PHP SDK can be really helpful when things aren't working quite right.
To debug the SDK, here are some suggestions:
Set the endpoint to Mailgun's Postbin. A Postbin is a web service that allows you to
post data, which is then displayed through a browser. This allows you to quickly determine
what is actually being transmitted to Mailgun's API.
**Step 1 - Create a new Postbin.**
Go to http://bin.mailgun.net. The Postbin will generate a special URL. Save that URL.
**Step 2 - Instantiate the Mailgun client using Postbin.**
*Tip: The bin id will be the URL part after bin.mailgun.net. It will be random generated letters and numbers. For example, the bin id in this URL, http://bin.mailgun.net/aecf68de, is "aecf68de".*
```php
# First, instantiate the SDK with your API credentials and define your domain.
$mg = new Mailgun('key-example', null, 'bin.mailgun.net');
$mg->setApiVersion('aecf68de');
$mg->setSslEnabled(false);
$domain = 'example.com';
# Now, compose and send your message.
$mg->sendMessage($domain, array('from' => 'bob@example.com',
'to' => 'sally@example.com',
'subject' => 'The PHP SDK is awesome!',
'text' => 'It is so simple to send a message.'));
```
Additional Info
---------------
For usage examples on each API endpoint, head over to our official documentation
pages.
This SDK includes a [Message Builder](src/Mailgun/Messages/README.md),
[Batch Message](src/Mailgun/Messages/README.md) and [Opt-In Handler](src/Mailgun/Lists/README.md) component.
Message Builder allows you to quickly create the array of parameters, required
to send a message, by calling a methods for each parameter.
Batch Message is an extension of Message Builder, and allows you to easily send
a batch message job within a few seconds. The complexity of
batch messaging is eliminated!
Framework integration
---------------------
If you are using a framework you might consider these composer packages to make the framework integration easier.
