An API client primarily to work with DotKernel API. https://github.com/dotkernel/api

CURRENTLY UNSTABLE

Install

Install via composer

Composer

composer install advancedideasmechanics/apiclient

Call package

Initialize

$apiclient = new ApiClient(baseurl, clientId, clientSecret, grantType, scope, userName, userSecret, tokenLocation, tokenFilename, debug, additionalParams);

See if it works, if api call works it will create a tokenFilename in your chosen location. Create location path if not already in place.

Test

$apiclient->getAccessToken();

Send data to API

$apiclient->makeApiRequest($endpoint, $body, $method = "GET", $additionalHeaders = []);
