Send An API Call Using The Request Function

We provide a base request function to access any of our API resources.

use Realo\Api\RealoApi;
use Realo\Api\RealoApiException;

$api = RealoApi::create('YOUR_PUBLIC_KEY', 'YOUR_PRIVATE_KEY');
try {
    $response = $api->request('/agencies', 'GET');
    var_dump($response);
} catch (RealoApiException $e) {
    printf("Error %d: %s\n", $e->getCode(), $e->getMessage());
}

Exceptions

An exception will be thrown in two cases: there is a problem with the request or the server returns a status code of 400 or higher.

RealoApiException

• getCode()
  • Returns the response status code of 400 or higher.
• getMessage()
  • Returns the exception message.
• getErrors()
  • If there is a response body containing an array of errors, return these. Otherwise returns null.
• getType()
  • If there is a response body containing an error, return its type. Otherwise returns null.
