README

This class is a wrapper for the Envato Marketplace API. It provides easy-to-remember methods to view your items, search the marketplace, get personal, private data, view collections, etc. It also will automatically caches the results - so that you don't hammer the API needlessly!

Usage

First, include the class in your project.

require 'Envato_marketplaces.php';

Next, create a new instance of the class:

$Envato = new Envato_marketplaces();

And that's really it. You now have access to all of the available functions.

Examples

Quickly Echo Thumbnails of a User's Items

$Envato = new Envato_marketplaces();
$Envato->display_thumbs('your username', 'desired marketplace name', 'number to display');

Search for Sliders Across all Marketplaces

$Envato = new Envato_marketplaces();
$sliders = $Envato->search('sliders');
$Envato->prettyPrint($sliders);
Limit results to a particular site...
$Envato = new Envato_marketplaces();
$sliders = $Envato->search('sliders', 'codecanyon');
$Envato->prettyPrint($sliders);
Limit further to a marketplace category...
$Envato = new Envato_marketplaces();
$sliders = $Envato->search('sliders', 'codecanyon', 'plugins');
$Envato->prettyPrint($sliders);    

Get Account Balance

require 'Envato_marketplaces.php';
$Envato = new Envato_marketplaces( 'YOUR_API_KEY');

# Echo out the balance.
echo $Envato->balance('your username');

Get Featured Item

require 'Envato_marketplaces.php';
$Envato = new Envato_marketplaces();
$featured = $Envato->featured('codecanyon');

# Just for reviewing available props
$Envato->prettyPrint($featured);

# Featured author
echo $featured->featured_author->user;

# Featured file
echo $featured->featured_file->url;

#Free file
echo $featured->free_file->url;

Get Specific Item Details

require 'Envato_marketplaces.php';
$Envato = new Envato_marketplaces();

# Pass in item id -- see url on item page on the marketplace.
$item = $Envato->item_details('232428');

# Only for development purposes. Review available options.
$Envato->prettyPrint($item);
?>

<h2> <?php echo $item->item; ?></h2>
<a href="<?php echo $item->url; ?>">
   <img src="<?php echo $item->live_preview_url; ?>" alt="<?php echo $item->item; ?>" />
</a>

Display Your Own Recent Items

require 'Envato_marketplaces.php';
$Envato = new Envato_marketplaces();

# marketplace name, desired category, optional limit (number of items to return)
$files = $Envato->new_files_from_user('Your Username', 'desired marketplace name', 5);

#See what we got back...
$Envato->prettyPrint($files);

# Display thumbnails and links to the item pages.
foreach($files as $item) : ?>
   <a href="<?php echo $item->url; ?>">   
      <img src="<?php echo $item->thumbnail; ?>" />
   </a>
<?php endforeach; ?>

require 'Envato_marketplaces.php';
$Envato = new Envato_marketplaces();

$sales = $Envato->recent_sales('your username', 'optional limit');

# Review what we got back
$Envato->prettyPrint($sales);

require 'Envato_marketplaces.php';
$Envato = new Envato_marketplaces();

# For review...
$Envato->prettyPrint($monthly_earnings);

$Envato->prettyPrint($account_info);

$Envato = new Envato_marketplaces();

$pop = $Envato->most_popular_last_week('marketplace name');

# Result Array
$Envato->prettyPrint($pop);

Verify a Purchase

require 'Envato_marketplaces.php';
$Envato = new Envato_marketplaces();
$Envato->set_api_key('your api key');

// Ensure that somebody bought your item.
// If successful, $verify will be an object which
// contains all of the purchase information.
$verify = $Envato->verify_purchase('your username', 'buyer purchase code');

// Quickie test. 
if ( isset($verify->buyer) ) echo 'bought';
else echo 'did not buy';
