README

The DHL Location Finder API SDK package offers an interface to the DHL Standortsuche. Use this SDK to get a list of DHL Paketboxes, parcel stations, and postal offices around a given address or a set of coordinates.

The SDK currently uses the DHL Standortsuche Deutschland API to retrieve locations, although this may change in a future version. You can find developer documentation for the DHL Standortsuche Deutschland API at https://entwickler.dhl.de/group/ep/wsapis/standortsuche

    'appId',
    'appToken',
    new \Psr\Log\NullLogger(),
    $sandboxMode

try {
    /** @var \Dhl\Sdk\LocationFinder\Api\Data\LocationInterface $locations  */
    $locations = $service->getPickUpLocations(
        'DE',
        '04129',
        'Leipzig',
        'Nonnenstraße',
        '11d'
    );
} catch (\Dhl\Sdk\LocationFinder\Exception\ServiceException $e) {
    // handle errors
}

foreach ($locations as $location) {
    echo $location->getName();
    echo $location->getType();
    echo $location->getLatitude();
    echo $location->getLongitude();
    // ...

Error handling

The SDK will only ever throw exceptions of type \Dhl\Sdk\LocationFinder\Exception\ServiceException. Subclasses of ServiceException may be used to describe the kind of error that occurred.

A \Dhl\Sdk\LocationFinder\Exception\DetailedServiceException indicates that the exception holds a human-readable error message suitable for display to the end-user.
