Features

The DHL Express Shipping API SDK supports the following features:

• Create Shipping Label

Shipping Rates

The Rate Request will return DHL's product capabilities (products, services, and estimated delivery time) and prices (where applicable) for a certain set of input data.

Public API

The library's components suitable for consumption comprise of

• services:
  • service factory
  • rate service
  • data transfer object builder
• data transfer objects:
  • rate request
  • rate response

Usage

$logger = new \Psr\Log\NullLogger();

$serviceFactory = new SoapServiceFactory();
$service = $serviceFactory->createRateService('api-user', 'api-pass', $logger);

$requestBuilder = new RateRequestBuilder();
$requestBuilder->setIsUnscheduledPickup($isUnscheduledPickup);
$requestBuilder->setShipperAccount($accountNumber);
$requestBuilder->setShipperAddress($countryCode, $postalCode, $city, $etc);
$requestBuilder->setRecipientAddress($countryCode, $postalCode, $city, $etc);
$requestBuilder->setWeightUOM($weightUOM);
$requestBuilder->setDimensionsUOM($dimensionsUOM);
$requestBuilder->setTermsOfTrade($termsOfTrade);
$requestBuilder->setContentType($contentType);
$requestBuilder->setReadyAtTimestamp($readyAtTimestamp);
$requestBuilder->addPackage($weight, $weightUom, $length, $width, $height, $dimensionsUom, $readyAtDate);
$requestBuilder->setInsurance($insuranceValue, $insuranceCurrency);

$request = $requestBuilder->build();
$response = $service->collectRates($request);
