Laravel Buffer

A Laravel client for the Buffer (bufferapp.com) REST API v1. Manage the authenticated user, connected social profiles, and pending/sent/scheduled updates through a simple, resource-based API, authenticated via a Bearer access token.

Installation

You can install the package via composer:

composer require jeffersongoncalves/laravel-buffer

You can publish the config file with:

php artisan vendor:publish --tag=buffer-config

This is the contents of the published config file:

return [
    'access_token' => env('BUFFER_ACCESS_TOKEN', ''),
    'base_url' => env('BUFFER_BASE_URL', 'https://api.bufferapp.com/1'),
];

Add your Buffer access token to .env. Generate one at buffer.com/developers/apps by creating an app:

BUFFER_ACCESS_TOKEN=your-access-token

Usage

All methods return the decoded JSON response as an array, or throw a JeffersonGoncalves\Buffer\Exceptions\BufferException when the Buffer API returns a failed HTTP response.

use JeffersonGoncalves\Buffer\Facades\Buffer;
// or resolve the manager from the container: app(\JeffersonGoncalves\Buffer\Buffer::class)

User

// GET /user.json
$user = Buffer::user()->info();

// POST /user/deauthorize.json
Buffer::user()->deauthorize();

Profiles

// GET /profiles.json
$profiles = Buffer::profiles()->list();

// GET /profiles/{id}.json
$profile = Buffer::profiles()->get('4eb854340acb04e870000005');

// GET /profiles/{id}/schedules.json
$schedules = Buffer::profiles()->schedules('4eb854340acb04e870000005');

Updates

// GET /updates/{id}.json
$update = Buffer::updates()->get('4eb8ab585208912e5f000005');

// GET /profiles/{id}/updates/pending.json — page, count and since are optional
$pending = Buffer::updates()->pending('4eb854340acb04e870000005', page: 1, count: 10);

// GET /profiles/{id}/updates/sent.json
$sent = Buffer::updates()->sent('4eb854340acb04e870000005', since: now()->subWeek()->timestamp);

// POST /updates/create.json
Buffer::updates()->create(
    profileIds: ['4eb854340acb04e870000005'],

);

Handling errors

use JeffersonGoncalves\Buffer\Exceptions\BufferException;
use JeffersonGoncalves\Buffer\Facades\Buffer;

try {
    Buffer::user()->info();
} catch (BufferException $e) {
    // $e->getMessage() — the Buffer API error message
    // $e->getCode() — the HTTP status code
    // $e->errorBody() — the full decoded error payload
}
