README

The Files.com PHP SDK provides convenient Files.com API access to applications written in PHP.

Installation

Install Composer. See https://packagist.org for more info.

If composer.phar is already available, skip this step.

curl -sS https://getcomposer.org/installer | php

Install the SDK

php composer.phar require files.com/files-php-sdk

Requirements

• PHP 5.5+
• php-curl extension

Usage

Import and initialize

require 'vendor/autoload.php';

// set your subdomain or custom domain
\Files\Files::setBaseUrl('https://MY-SUBDOMAIN.files.com');

Authentication

There are multiple ways to authenticate to the API.

Global API Key

You can set an API key globally like this:

\Files\Files::setApiKey('my-api-key');

Per-Request API Key

Or, you can pass an API key per-request, in the options array at the end of every method like this:

$user = new \Files\Model\User($params, array('api_key' => 'my-api-key'));

User Session

Or, you can open a user session by calling \Files\Model\Session::create()

$session = \Files\Model\Session::create(['username' => $username, 'password' => $password]);

Then use it globally for all subsequent API calls like this:

\Files\Files::setSessionId($session->id);

Or, you can pass the session ID per-request, in the options array at the end of every method like this:

$user = new \Files\Model\User($params, array('session_id' => $session->id));

Session example

$session = \Files\Model\Session::create(['username' => $myUsername, 'password' => $myPassword]);
\Files\Files::setSessionId($session->id);

// do something
\Files\Model\ApiKey::list(['user_id' => 0]);

// clean up when done
\Files\Model\Session::destroy();
\Files\Files::setSessionId(null);

Setting Global Options

You can set the following global properties directly on the \Files\Files class:

• \Files\Files::$logLevel - set to one of the following:
  • \Files\LogLevel::NONE
  • \Files\LogLevel::ERROR
  • \Files\LogLevel::WARN
  • \Files\LogLevel::INFO (default)
  • \Files\LogLevel::DEBUG
• \Files\Files::$debugRequest - enable debug logging of API requests (default: false)
• \Files\Files::$debugResponseHeaders - enable debug logging of API response headers (default: false)
• \Files\Files::$connectTimeout - network connect timeout in seconds (default: 30.0)
• \Files\Files::$readTimeout - network read timeout in seconds (default: 90.0)
• \Files\Files::$maxNetworkRetries - max retries (default: 3)
• \Files\Files::$minNetworkRetryDelay - minimum delay in seconds before retrying (default: 0.5)
• \Files\Files::$maxNetworkRetryDelay - max delay in seconds before retrying (default: 1.5)
