🚀 Usage

Basic Usage

use Janwebdev\SocialVideoBundle\Message\VideoMessageBuilder;
use Janwebdev\SocialVideoBundle\Publisher\VideoPublisher;

class YourService
{
    public function __construct(private VideoPublisher $publisher) {}

    public function postVideo(): void
    {
        $message = VideoMessageBuilder::create()
            ->setVideoPath('/path/to/reel.mp4')          // local file
            // OR: ->setVideoUrl('https://cdn.example.com/reel.mp4')
            ->setTitle('My Amazing Short #Shorts')
            ->setDescription('Check this out!')
            ->addHashtag('reels')
            ->addHashtag('fyp')
            ->setPrivacy('public')
            ->forNetworks(['youtube', 'instagram', 'tiktok'])
            ->build();

        $results = $this->publisher->publish($message);

        foreach ($results as $result) {
            if ($result->isSuccess()) {
                echo "{$result->getProviderName()}: {$result->getPostUrl()}\n";
            } else {
                echo "Failed: {$result->getErrorMessage()}\n";
            }
        }
    }
}

Async Publishing (requires symfony/messenger)

// Dispatch to message queue
$this->publisher->publishAsync($message);

Check Results

$results = $this->publisher->publish($message);

if ($results->isAllSuccessful()) {
    echo "Posted to all networks!\n";
}

$ytResult = $results->getResult('youtube');
if ($ytResult?->isSuccess()) {
    echo "YouTube URL: " . $ytResult->getPostUrl() . "\n";
}

foreach ($results->getFailed() as $result) {
    echo "Failed on {$result->getProviderName()}: {$result->getErrorMessage()}\n";
}

Event Listeners

use Janwebdev\SocialVideoBundle\Publisher\Event\AfterPublishEvent;
use Symfony\Component\EventDispatcher\EventSubscriberInterface;

class VideoPostSubscriber implements EventSubscriberInterface
{
    public static function getSubscribedEvents(): array
    {
        return [AfterPublishEvent::class => 'onAfterPublish'];
    }

    public function onAfterPublish(AfterPublishEvent $event): void
    {
        foreach ($event->results->getSuccessful() as $result) {
            // Log to database, send notifications, etc.
        }
    }
}
