## Features
- Object-oriented interface for interacting with the Directus API
- Supports all Directus endpoints (Items, Files, Users, etc.)
- Supports multiple authentication methods (API Key, User/Password)
- Customizable storage for authentication tokens (Session, Cookie, Custom)
- Easy-to-use methods for common CRUD operations (Create, Read, Update, Delete)
- Comprehensive error handling
## Requirements
- PHP 8.0 or higher
- Composer
- Guzzle HTTP client (`guzzlehttp/guzzle`)
## Installation
1. Install the SDK using Composer:
```bash
composer require alantiller/directus-php-sdk
```
## Configuration
Before using the SDK, you need to configure it with your Directus base URL and authentication details.
1. **Base URL:** The base URL of your Directus instance (e.g., `https://your-directus-instance.com`).
2. **Storage:** Choose a storage mechanism for authentication tokens (Session, Cookie, or Custom).
3. **Authentication:** Choose an authentication method and provide the necessary credentials.
## Usage
### Authentication
The SDK supports multiple authentication methods:
#### API Key Authentication
```php
use AlanTiller\DirectusSdk\Directus;
use AlanTiller\DirectusSdk\Auth\ApiKeyAuth;
use AlanTiller\DirectusSdk\Storage\SessionStorage;
$baseUrl = 'https://your-directus-instance.com';
$apiKey = 'YOUR_API_KEY';
$storage = new SessionStorage('directus_'); // Optional prefix
$auth = new ApiKeyAuth($apiKey);
$directus = new Directus(
$baseUrl,
$storage,
$auth
);
```
#### User/Password Authentication
```php
use AlanTiller\DirectusSdk\Directus;
use AlanTiller\DirectusSdk\Auth\UserPasswordAuth;
use AlanTiller\DirectusSdk\Storage\SessionStorage;
$baseUrl = 'https://your-directus-instance.com';
$username = '[email protected]';
$password = 'your_password';
$storage = new SessionStorage('directus_'); // Optional prefix
$auth = new UserPasswordAuth($baseUrl, $username, $password);
$directus = new Directus(
$baseUrl,
$storage,
$auth
);
// Authenticate the user
try {
$directus->authenticate();
} catch (\Exception $e) {
echo "Authentication failed: " . $e->getMessage() . PHP_EOL;
}
```
### Items
The `items` endpoint allows you to manage items in a specific collection.
```php
use AlanTiller\DirectusSdk\Directus;
use AlanTiller\DirectusSdk\Storage\SessionStorage;
$baseUrl = 'https://your-directus-instance.com';
$storage = new SessionStorage('directus_');
$directus = new Directus(
$baseUrl,
$storage
);
$collection = 'your_collection';
$items = $directus->items($collection);
// Get all items
$all_items = $items->get();
print_r($all_items);
// Get a specific item
$item = $items->get(1);
print_r($item);
// Create a new item
$new_item = $items->create(['name' => 'New Item', 'status' => 'published']);
print_r($new_item);
// Update an existing item
$updated_item = $items->update(['name' => 'Updated Item'], 1);
print_r($updated_item);
// Delete an item
$deleted_item = $items->delete(1);
print_r($deleted_item);
```
### Users
The `users` endpoint allows you to manage users in your Directus instance.
```php
use AlanTiller\DirectusSdk\Directus;
use AlanTiller\DirectusSdk\Storage\SessionStorage;
$baseUrl = 'https://your-directus-instance.com';
$storage = new SessionStorage('directus_');
$directus = new Directus(
$baseUrl,
$storage
);
$users = $directus->users();
// Get all users
$all_users = $users->get();
print_r($all_users);
// Get a specific user
$user = $users->get('user_id');
print_r($user);
// Create a new user
$new_user = $users->create([
'first_name' => 'John',
'last_name' => 'Doe',
'email' => '[email protected]',
'password' => 'password123',
'role' => 'administrator'
]);
print_r($new_user);
// Update an existing user
$updated_user = $users->update([
'first_name' => 'Jane',
'last_name' => 'Doe'
], 'user_id');
print_r($updated_user);
// Delete a user
$deleted_user = $users->delete('user_id');
print_r($deleted_user);
```
### Files
The `files` endpoint allows you to manage files in your Directus instance.
```php
use AlanTiller\DirectusSdk\Directus;
use AlanTiller\DirectusSdk\Storage\SessionStorage;
$baseUrl = 'https://your-directus-instance.com';
$storage = new SessionStorage('directus_');
$directus = new Directus(
$baseUrl,
$storage
);
$files = $directus->files();
// Get all files
$all_files = $files->get();
print_r($all_files);
// Get a specific file
$file = $files->get('file_id');
print_r($file);
// Create a new file
$file_path = '/path/to/your/file.jpg';
$new_file = $files->create([
'name' => basename($file_path),
'tmp_name' => $file_path,
]);
print_r($new_file);
// Update an existing file
$updated_file = $files->update('file_id', ['title' => 'New Title']);
print_r($updated_file);
// Delete a file
$deleted_file = $files->delete('file_id');
print_r($deleted_file);
```
### Other Endpoints
The SDK provides access to all Directus endpoints, including:
- `activity()`
- `collections()`
- `comments()`
- `contentVersions()`
- `dashboards()`
- `extensions()`
- `fields(string $collection)`
- `flows()`
- `folders()`
- `notifications()`
- `operations()`
- `panels()`
- `permissions()`
- `policies()`
- `presets()`
- `relations()`
- `revisions()`
- `roles()`
- `schema()`
- `server()`
- `settings()`
- `shares()`
- `translations()`
- `utilities()`
Each endpoint provides methods for performing common operations, such as `get`, `create`, `update`, and `delete`. Refer to the Directus API documentation for more information on each endpoint and its available methods.
### Custom Calls
You can make custom API calls using the `makeCustomCall` method:
```php
use AlanTiller\DirectusSdk\Directus;
use AlanTiller\DirectusSdk\Storage\SessionStorage;
$baseUrl = 'https://your-directus-instance.com';
$storage = new SessionStorage('directus_');
$directus = new Directus(
$baseUrl,
$storage
);
$uri = '/your/custom/endpoint';
$data = ['param1' => 'value1', 'param2' => 'value2'];
$method = 'GET';
$response = $directus->makeCustomCall($uri, $data, $method);
print_r($response);
```
## Storage
The SDK uses a `StorageInterface` to store authentication tokens. You can choose between session storage, cookie storage, or implement your own custom storage mechanism.
### Session Storage
Session storage uses PHP sessions to store authentication tokens. This is the default storage mechanism.
```php
use AlanTiller\DirectusSdk\Storage\SessionStorage;
$storage = new SessionStorage('directus_'); // Optional prefix
```
### Cookie Storage
Cookie storage uses cookies to store authentication tokens.
```php
use AlanTiller\DirectusSdk\Storage\CookieStorage;
$storage = new CookieStorage('directus_', '/'); // Optional prefix and domain
```
### Custom Storage
You can implement your own custom storage mechanism by creating a class that implements the `StorageInterface`.
```php
use AlanTiller\DirectusSdk\Storage\StorageInterface;
class MyCustomStorage implements StorageInterface
{
public function set(string $key, $value): void
{
// Store the value
}
public function get(string $key)
{
// Retrieve the value
}
public function delete(string $key): void
{
// Delete the value
}
}
$storage = new MyCustomStorage();
```
## Error Handling
The SDK throws exceptions for API errors. You can catch these exceptions and handle them appropriately.
```php
use AlanTiller\DirectusSdk\Directus;
use AlanTiller\DirectusSdk\Storage\SessionStorage;
use AlanTiller\DirectusSdk\Exceptions\DirectusException;
$baseUrl = 'https://your-directus-instance.com';
$storage = new SessionStorage('directus_');
$directus = new Directus(
$baseUrl,
$storage
);
try {
$items = $directus->items('your_collection')->get();
print_r($items);
} catch (DirectusException $e) {
echo "API error: " . $e->getMessage() . PHP_EOL;
}
```
## Testing
The SDK includes a set of Pest PHP tests to ensure that it functions correctly. To run the tests, follow these steps:
1. Install Pest PHP:
```bash
composer require pestphp/pest --dev
```
2. Run the tests:
```bash
./vendor/bin/pest
```
