README

Lite & fast micro PHP library that provides a convenient and flexible way to perform HTTP requests in PHP applications.

Usage

Create an instance of the Client class to perform HTTP requests. The instance methods allow for setting request options like headers, timeout, connection timeout, and more.

The fetch() method on a Client instance accepts the following parameters:

• url - A String containing the URL to which the request is sent.
• method - A String containing the HTTP method for the request. The default method is GET.
• body - An array of data to send as the body of the request, which can be an associative array for form data or a JSON string.
• query - An associative array of query parameters.

The Response object returned by fetch() provides several methods to inspect the response:

• isOk() - Checks if the response status code is within the 200-299 range.
• getBody() - Retrieves the response body as a string.
• getHeaders() - Fetches the response headers as an associative array.
• getStatusCode() - Gets the response status code.
• json() - Decodes the response body to an associative array.
• text() - Alias for getBody(), returns the response body as a string.
• blob() - Returns the response body as a blob.

Examples

GET Request

require_once __DIR__ . '/vendor/autoload.php';
use Utopia\Fetch\Client;

$client = new Client();
$url = 'https://httpbin.org/get';
$method = 'GET';
$query = ['foo' => 'bar'];

// Optionally set more configurations
$client
  ->setUserAgent('CustomUserAgent/1.0')
  ->setAllowRedirects(true)
  ->setMaxRedirects(1)
  ->setConnectionTimeout(10)
  ->setTimeout(30);

$resp = $client->fetch(
    url: $url,
    method: $method,
    query: $query
);

if ($resp->isOk()) {
    echo "Status Code: " . $resp->getStatusCode() . "\n";
    echo "Response Headers:\n";
    print_r($resp->getHeaders());
    echo "Response Body:\n";
    echo $resp->getBody();
} else {
    echo "Error: " . $resp->getStatusCode() . "\n";
}

POST Request

require_once __DIR__ . '/vendor/autoload.php';
use Utopia\Fetch\Client;

$client = new Client();
$url = 'https://httpbin.org/post';
$method = 'POST';
$headers = ['Content-Type' => 'application/json'];
$body = ['name' => 'John Doe'];
$query = ['foo' => 'bar'];

// Set request headers
$client->addHeader('Content-Type', 'application/json');

$resp = $client->fetch(
    url: $url,
    method: $method,
    body: $body,
    query: $query
);

print_r($resp->json());

Sending a file

require_once __DIR__ . '/vendor/autoload.php';
use Utopia\Fetch\Client;

$client = new Client();
$url = 'http://localhost:8000/upload';
$method = 'POST';

// Ensure you set the appropriate Content-Type for file upload
$client->addHeader('Content-Type', 'multipart/form-data');

$filePath = realpath(__DIR__ . '/tests/resources/logo.png'); // Absolute path to the file
$body = ['file' => new \CURLFile($filePath, 'image/png', 'logo.png')];

$resp = $client->fetch(
    url: $url,
    method: $method,
    body: $body
);

print_r($resp->json());
