README
This extension provides RingCentral Fax integration for Yii2 framework with OAuth 2.0 support.
Installation
The preferred way to install this extension is through composer.
Either run
php composer.phar require --prefer-dist jithvar/yii2-ringcentral
or add
"jithvar/yii2-ringcentral": "*"
to the require section of your composer.json file.
Configuration
Basic Configuration
'components' => [ 'ringcentralFax' => [ 'class' => 'ringcentral\fax\RingCentralFax', 'clientId' => 'YOUR_CLIENT_ID', 'clientSecret' => 'YOUR_CLIENT_SECRET', 'serverUrl' => 'https://platform.ringcentral.com', // Use 'https://platform.devtest.ringcentral.com' for sandbox 'redirectUrl' => 'https://your-app.com/ringcentral/callback', 'tokenRefreshCallback' => function($tokens) { // Save new tokens to your storage Yii::$app->cache->set('ringcentral_access_token', $tokens['access_token']); Yii::$app->cache->set('ringcentral_refresh_token', $tokens['refresh_token']); } ], ]
OAuth 2.0 Setup
- Go to RingCentral Developer Portal
- Select your application
- Under "Auth & Security":
- Enable "OAuth 2.0"
- Enable "Issue refresh tokens"
- Add your redirect URI (e.g.,
https://your-app.com/ringcentral/callback)
Implementing OAuth Flow
- Create a controller to handle the OAuth flow:
namespace app\controllers; use Yii; use yii\web\Controller; class RingCentralController extends Controller { /** * Initiates OAuth flow */ public function actionAuth() { // Generate a random state for CSRF protection $state = Yii::$app->security->generateRandomString(); Yii::$app->session->set('ringcentral_state', $state); // Get authorization URL and redirect $authUrl = Yii::$app->ringcentralFax->getAuthorizationUrl($state); return $this->redirect($authUrl); } /** * Handles OAuth callback */ public function actionCallback() { // Verify state parameter $state = Yii::$app->request->get('state'); $savedState = Yii::$app->session->get('ringcentral_state'); if (!$state || $state !== $savedState) { throw new \yii\web\BadRequestHttpException('Invalid state parameter'); } // Exchange authorization code for tokens $code = Yii::$app->request->get('code'); try { $tokens = Yii::$app->ringcentralFax->handleOAuthCallback($code); // Tokens are automatically saved via tokenRefreshCallback Yii::$app->session->setFlash('success', 'Successfully connected to RingCentral'); return $this->redirect(['site/index']); } catch (\Exception $e) { Yii::$app->session->setFlash('error', 'Failed to connect to RingCentral: ' . $e->getMessage()); return $this->redirect(['site/index']); } } }
- Add routes in
config/web.php:
'urlManager' => [ 'enablePrettyUrl' => true, 'rules' => [ 'ringcentral/auth' => 'ring-central/auth', 'ringcentral/callback' => 'ring-central/callback', ], ],
- Add a link to start the OAuth flow:
use yii\helpers\Html; echo Html::a('Connect RingCentral', ['ring-central/auth'], ['class' => 'btn btn-primary']);
Token Management
The extension handles token management automatically:
-
When tokens are first obtained via OAuth:
- Both access and refresh tokens are saved via your
tokenRefreshCallback - The tokens are used for subsequent API calls
- Both access and refresh tokens are saved via your
-
When the access token expires:
- The extension automatically uses the refresh token to get a new access token
- Your
tokenRefreshCallbackis called with the new tokens - The failed request is automatically retried
-
If the refresh token expires:
- The user will need to re-authenticate via OAuth
- You can catch this case by checking for the 'refresh_token_expired' error
Usage
try { // Send a fax $result = Yii::$app->ringcentralFax->send([ 'to' => '+1234567890', 'files' => ['/path/to/file.pdf'], 'text' => 'Optional cover page text' ]); } catch (\yii\base\Exception $e) { if (strpos($e->getMessage(), 'refresh_token_expired') !== false) { // Redirect user to re-authenticate return $this->redirect(['ring-central/auth']); } // Handle other errors Yii::error('Fax sending failed: ' . $e->getMessage()); }
Best Practices
- Store sensitive credentials securely:
'ringcentralFax' => [ 'class' => 'ringcentral\fax\RingCentralFax', 'clientId' => getenv('RINGCENTRAL_CLIENT_ID'), 'clientSecret' => getenv('RINGCENTRAL_CLIENT_SECRET'), 'redirectUrl' => getenv('RINGCENTRAL_REDIRECT_URL'), 'serverUrl' => getenv('RINGCENTRAL_SERVER_URL'), ],
- Use environment-specific URLs:
'serverUrl' => YII_DEBUG ? 'https://platform.devtest.ringcentral.com' : 'https://platform.ringcentral.com', 'redirectUrl' => YII_DEBUG ? 'http://localhost:8080/ringcentral/callback' : 'https://your-app.com/ringcentral/callback',
- Always implement the tokenRefreshCallback to persist new tokens:
'tokenRefreshCallback' => function($tokens) { // Save to database Yii::$app->db->createCommand() ->update('settings', [ 'access_token' => $tokens['access_token'], 'refresh_token' => $tokens['refresh_token'] ], ['name' => 'ringcentral']) ->execute(); },
