# DiscordPHP-Http

Asynchronous HTTP client used for communication with the Discord REST API.

## Requirements

- PHP >=7.4

## Installation

```sh
$ composer require discord-php/http
```

A [psr/log](https://packagist.org/packages/psr/log)-compliant logging library is also required. We recommend [monolog](https://github.com/Seldaek/monolog) which will be used in examples.

## Usage

```php
pushHandler(new StreamHandler('php://output'));
$http = new Http(
'Bot xxxx.yyyy.zzzz',
$loop,
$logger
);

// set up a driver - this example uses the React driver
$driver = new React($loop);
$http->setDriver($driver);

// must be the last line
$loop->run();
```

All request methods have the same footprint:

```php
$http->get(string $url, $content = null, array $headers = []);
$http->post(string $url, $content = null, array $headers = []);
$http->put(string $url, $content = null, array $headers = []);
$http->patch(string $url, $content = null, array $headers = []);
$http->delete(string $url, $content = null, array $headers = []);
```

For other methods:

```php
$http->queueRequest(string $method, string $url, $content, array $headers = []);
```

All methods return the decoded JSON response in an object:

```php
// https://discord.com/api/v8/oauth2/applications/@me
$http->get('oauth2/applications/@me')->done(function ($response) {
var_dump($response);
}, function ($e) {
echo "Error: ".$e->getMessage().PHP_EOL;
});
```

Most Discord endpoints are provided in the [Endpoint.php](src/Discord/Endpoint.php) class as constants. Parameters start with a colon,
e.g. `channels/:channel_id/messages/:message_id`. You can bind parameters to then with the same class:

```php
// channels/channel_id_here/messages/message_id_here
$endpoint = Endpoint::bind(Endpoint::CHANNEL_MESSAGE, 'channel_id_here', 'message_id_here');

$http->get($endpoint)->done(...);
```

It is recommended that if the endpoint contains parameters you use the `Endpoint::bind()` function to sort requests into their correct rate limit buckets.
For an example, see [DiscordPHP](https://github.com/discord-php/DiscordPHP).
