A PHP Client for the CodeDump.io API

What is CodeDump.io?

CodeDump.io is a website where programmers can dump any code or configuration they like in any language they desire, in order for other programmers to benefit from it.

What does this client do?

CodeDump.io-API-client-PHP provides everything you need to communicate with the CodeDump.io API:

• upload code from from a string of a source file
• request available languages
• request available access types

How to install the client?

The client can easily be installed using Composer:

"require": { "rkirkels/codedump_io": "dev-master" }

Prerequisites

In order to use the this client, you need:

• A (free) account with CodeDump.io to obtain your API key and secret.
• PHP-cURL modules installed.

How to use this client in your code?

The client can be instantiate as a new object:

$client = new \codedump_io\CodeDumpClient(<apiKey>,<apiSecret>);

Or as a singleton:

$client = \codedump_io\CodeDumpClient::getInstance(<apiKey>,<apiSecret>);

The API key and secret can also be defined in the in src/CodeDumpClient.php file, so you don't have to provide them when instantiating.

Example code

$client = \codedump_io\CodeDumpClient::getInstance(<apiKey>,<apiSecret>);

// Get all available languages:
$client->command('languages/get');
$languages = $client->response();

// Get all access types:
$client->command('access/get');
$accessTypes = $client->response();

// Post some PHP code:
$title = 'Some cool title for your code dump';
$description = 'Some text to describe your piece of code.'; // You can use EOL characters if needed
$code = '<?php phpinfo(); ?>'; // Your actual code
$accessType = 'public';
$language = "PHP";

$linkToCodeDump = $client->addCode($title, $description, $code , $accessType, $language);

// Post code from a file:
$title = 'Some cool title for your code dump';
$description = 'Some text to describe your piece of code.'; // You can use EOL characters if needed
$file = 'file_containing_code.php';
$accessType = 'public';
$language = "PHP";

$linkToCodeDump = $client->addCodeFromFile($title, $file, $description, $accessType, $language);
