📦 Installation

composer require jjuanrivvera/canvas-lms-kit-laravel

⚡ Quick Start

1. Publish Configuration

php artisan vendor:publish --tag=canvas-config

2. Add Credentials to `.env`

CANVAS_API_KEY=your-api-key-here
CANVAS_BASE_URL=https://your-institution.instructure.com
CANVAS_ACCOUNT_ID=1

3. Test Your Connection

php artisan canvas:test

4. Start Using!

use CanvasLMS\Api\Courses\Course;
use CanvasLMS\Api\Users\User;

// That's it! The package auto-configures everything
$courses = Course::get();
$user = User::find(123);

🎯 Why This Package?

The Problem

Without this package, you need to manually configure Canvas LMS Kit in every controller, job, or service:

// 😫 Before - Manual configuration everywhere
class CourseController 
{
    public function __construct() 
    {
        Config::setApiKey(env('CANVAS_API_KEY'));
        Config::setBaseUrl(env('CANVAS_BASE_URL'));
        Config::setAccountId(env('CANVAS_ACCOUNT_ID'));
        // ... more configuration
    }
}

The Solution

This package auto-configures everything from your Laravel config:

// 😊 After - Just works!
class CourseController 
{
    public function index() 
    {
        return Course::get(); // Already configured!
    }
}

📖 Usage

Basic Usage

The package automatically configures the Canvas LMS Kit when your application boots. You can immediately use all Canvas API classes:

use CanvasLMS\Api\Courses\Course;
use CanvasLMS\Api\Enrollments\Enrollment;
use CanvasLMS\Api\Assignments\Assignment;

// Get all courses
$courses = Course::get();

// Get a specific course
$course = Course::find(123);

// Create a course
$course = Course::create([
    'name' => 'Introduction to Laravel',
    'course_code' => 'LAR101',
]);

// Update a course
$course->name = 'Advanced Laravel';
$course->save();

Multi-Tenant Support

Perfect for SaaS applications managing multiple Canvas instances:

use CanvasLMS\Laravel\Facades\Canvas;

// Switch to a different Canvas instance
Canvas::connection('school_b');
$courses = Course::get(); // From school_b

// Temporarily use a different connection
Canvas::usingConnection('school_c', function () {
    $course = Course::find(456); // From school_c
});

// Back to default connection
Canvas::connection('main');

Configure multiple connections in config/canvas.php:

'connections' => [
    'main' => [
        'api_key' => env('CANVAS_API_KEY'),
        'base_url' => env('CANVAS_BASE_URL'),
    ],
    
    'school_b' => [
        'api_key' => env('SCHOOL_B_API_KEY'),
        'base_url' => env('SCHOOL_B_BASE_URL'),
    ],
],

Testing

Mock Canvas API calls in your tests:

use CanvasLMS\Laravel\Testing\CanvasFake;
use CanvasLMS\Api\Courses\Course;

test('creates a course in canvas', function () {
    // Arrange
    $fake = new CanvasFake();
    $fake->fake([
        'courses' => [
            ['id' => 123, 'name' => 'Test Course'],
        ],
    ]);
    
    // Act
    $courses = Course::get();
    
    // Assert
    expect($courses)->toHaveCount(1);
    expect($courses[0]->name)->toBe('Test Course');
    $fake->assertApiCallMade('GET', '/courses');
});

Facade Usage (Optional)

If you prefer facades, you can use the Canvas facade:

use CanvasLMS\Laravel\Facades\Canvas;

// These are equivalent:
Course::get();                    // Direct SDK usage
Canvas::courses()::get();         // Via facade

// The facade is most useful for connection management:
Canvas::connection('tenant_2')->courses()::get();

🔧 Configuration

The configuration file (config/canvas.php) provides extensive customization options:

return [
    // Default connection to use
    'default' => env('CANVAS_CONNECTION', 'main'),
    
    // Multiple Canvas connections
    'connections' => [
        'main' => [
            // Authentication mode: 'api_key' or 'oauth'
            'auth_mode' => env('CANVAS_AUTH_MODE', 'api_key'),
            
            // API Key authentication (when auth_mode = 'api_key')
            'api_key' => env('CANVAS_API_KEY'),
            'base_url' => env('CANVAS_BASE_URL'),
            'account_id' => env('CANVAS_ACCOUNT_ID', 1),
            'timeout' => env('CANVAS_TIMEOUT', 30),
            'log_channel' => env('CANVAS_LOG_CHANNEL'),
            
            // OAuth 2.0 authentication (when auth_mode = 'oauth')
            'oauth_client_id' => env('CANVAS_OAUTH_CLIENT_ID'),
            'oauth_client_secret' => env('CANVAS_OAUTH_CLIENT_SECRET'),
            'oauth_redirect_uri' => env('CANVAS_OAUTH_REDIRECT_URI'),
            'oauth_token' => env('CANVAS_OAUTH_TOKEN'),
            'oauth_refresh_token' => env('CANVAS_OAUTH_REFRESH_TOKEN'),
            
            // Optional middleware configuration
            'middleware' => [
                'retry' => [
                    'max_attempts' => 3,
                    'delay' => 1000,
                ],
                'rate_limit' => [
                    'wait_on_limit' => true,
                ],
            ],
        ],
    ],
    
    // Testing configuration
    'testing' => [
        'fake' => env('CANVAS_FAKE', false),
    ],
];

🔐 Authentication Methods

API Key Authentication (Default)

The simplest authentication method using Canvas API tokens:

CANVAS_AUTH_MODE=api_key  # or omit - api_key is default
CANVAS_API_KEY=your-canvas-api-token

OAuth 2.0 Authentication

For OAuth-based authentication, switch the auth mode and configure OAuth settings:

CANVAS_AUTH_MODE=oauth
CANVAS_OAUTH_CLIENT_ID=your-client-id
CANVAS_OAUTH_CLIENT_SECRET=your-client-secret
CANVAS_OAUTH_REDIRECT_URI=https://yourapp.com/canvas/callback
CANVAS_OAUTH_TOKEN=current-access-token
CANVAS_OAUTH_REFRESH_TOKEN=refresh-token

User Masquerading (Runtime Only)

Administrators can make API calls as another user (requires appropriate permissions):

use CanvasLMS\Config;

// Masquerade as a specific user for all subsequent calls
Config::asUser(12345);

// Make API calls as that user
$courses = Course::get(); // Returns courses visible to user 12345

// Stop masquerading
Config::stopMasquerading();

// Now calls are made as the authenticated user again
$courses = Course::get();

🎨 Artisan Commands

Test Connection

Verify your Canvas API connection and see authenticated user info:

# Test default connection
php artisan canvas:test

# Test specific connection
php artisan canvas:test --connection=school_b

# Show current configuration
php artisan canvas:test --show-config

# Verbose mode (tests additional endpoints)
php artisan canvas:test -v

🧪 Testing Your Integration

Using Pest (Recommended)

use CanvasLMS\Laravel\Testing\CanvasFake;

beforeEach(function () {
    $this->canvas = new CanvasFake();
});

test('enrolls user in course', function () {
    // Arrange
    $this->canvas->fake([
        'enrollments' => [
            'id' => 999,
            'user_id' => 123,
            'course_id' => 456,
            'type' => 'StudentEnrollment',
        ],
    ]);
    
    // Act
    $enrollment = Enrollment::create([
        'enrollment' => [
            'user_id' => 123,
            'course_id' => 456,
            'type' => 'StudentEnrollment',
        ],
    ]);
    
    // Assert
    expect($enrollment->user_id)->toBe(123);
    $this->canvas->assertEnrollmentCreated(123, 456, 'StudentEnrollment');
});

Available Assertions

$canvas = new CanvasFake();

// Assert specific API calls
$canvas->assertCourseCreated(['name' => 'Laravel 101']);
$canvas->assertEnrollmentCreated($userId, $courseId);
$canvas->assertApiCallMade('GET', '/courses/*');
$canvas->assertApiCallCount(3);
$canvas->assertNoApiCallsMade();
