README

AT&T's M2X PHP Client

AT&T M2X is a cloud-based fully managed time-series data storage service for network connected machine-to-machine (M2M) devices and the Internet of Things (IoT).

The AT&T M2X API provides all the needed operations and methods to connect your devices to AT&T's M2X service. This library aims to provide a simple wrapper to interact with the AT&T M2X API for PHP. Refer to the Glossary of Terms to understand the nomenclature used throughout this documentation.

Getting Started

1. Signup for an M2X Account.
2. Obtain your Master Key from the Master Keys tab of your Account Settings screen.
3. Create your first Device and copy its Device ID.
4. Review the M2X API Documentation.

Installation

Simply add a dependency on attm2x/m2x-php to your project's composer.json file if you use Composer to manage the dependencies of your project.

{
  "require": {
    "attm2x/m2x-php": "~4.0"
  }
}

Usage

In order to communicate with the M2X API, you need an instance of M2X:. You need to pass your API key in the constructor to access your data.

use Att\M2X\M2X;

$m2x = new M2X("<YOUR-API-KEY>"");

This provides an interface to your data in M2X

• Distribution

  $distribution = $m2x->distribution("<DISTRIBUTION-ID>");
  
  $distributions = $m2x->distributions();

• Device

  $device = $m2x->device("<DEVICE-ID>");
  
  $devices = $m2x->devices();

• Key

  $key = $m2x->key("<KEY-TOKEN>");
  
  $keys = $m2x->keys();

Refer to the documentation on each class for further usage instructions.

Example

In order to run this example, you will need a Device ID and API Key. If you don't have any, access your M2X account, create a new Device, and copy the Device ID and API Key values. The following script will send your CPU load average to three different streams named load_1m, load_5m and load_15. Check that there's no need to create a stream in order to write values into it.

In order to execute this script, run:

API_KEY= DEVICE= php examples/uptime.php

use Att\M2X\M2X;
use Att\M2X\Error\M2XException;

$apiKey = getenv("API_KEY");
$deviceId  = getenv("DEVICE");

$m2x = new M2X($apiKey);

# Get the device
$device = $m2x->device($deviceId);

# Create the streams if they don't exist yet
$device->updateStream('load_1m');
$device->updateStream('load_5m');
$device->updateStream('load_15m');

while (true) {
  list($load_1m, $load_5m, $load_15m) = sys_getloadavg();
  $now = date('c');

  $values = array(
    'load_1m'  => array(array('value' => $load_1m,  'timestamp' => $now)),
    'load_5m'  => array(array('value' => $load_5m,  'timestamp' => $now)),
    'load_15m' => array(array('value' => $load_15m, 'timestamp' => $now))
  );

  try {
    $device->postUpdates($values);
  } catch (M2XException $ex) {
    echo 'Error: ' . $ex->getMessage();
    echo $ex->response->raw;
    break;
  }

  sleep(10);
}

Versioning

This lib aims to adhere to Semantic Versioning 2.0.0. As a summary, given a version number MAJOR.MINOR.PATCH:

1. MAJOR will increment when backwards-incompatible changes are introduced to the client.
2. MINOR will increment when backwards-compatible functionality is added.
3. PATCH will increment with backwards-compatible bug fixes.

Additional labels for pre-release and build metadata are available as extensions to the MAJOR.MINOR.PATCH format.

Note: the client version does not necessarily reflect the version used in the AT&T M2X API.
