About

The Laravel Http Client is used to make requests to the Bravo API
The package has a set of typed objects that are used to construct the request objects in the correct format.
The responses are passed through DataTransferObjects to cast the response from a json response into typed objects

Config

You can publish the configuration if required:

php artisan vendor:publish --provider="NetworkRailBusinessSystems\BravoApi\BravoApiServiceProvider"

You will need to set the following in your .env file as a minimum:

BRAVO_API_USERNAME=
BRAVO_API_PASSWORD=
BRAVO_API_BASE_URL=

The base url is in the following format https://<WEBSERVICES-URL>/esop/jint/api/public/. For example https://customername.com/esop/jint/api/public/. The api package is designed to work with v1 of the Bravo API.

If you want to alter the default token cache time (10 minutes by default), then, for example, set the following to 20 minutes:

BRAVO_API_TOKEN_CACHE=20

Proxy:

The HTTP Client requires a proxy to be able to connect with Bravo's API when the application is deployed on the servers.

This is already configured for you however, you must ensure that the APP_ENV property in the .env file is to either staging or production for it to be applied. It will not be applied when set to local or testing.

Create Project

use NetworkRailBusinessSystems\BravoApi\BravoApi;
use NetworkRailBusinessSystems\BravoApi\RequestObjects\Project;

$bravoApi = new BravoApi();

$project = new Project();
$project->tender->title = 'My Project Title';

$response = $bravoApi->createProject($project);

echo $response->returnCode; // 0
echo $response->tenderCode; // 'tender_1000111
echo $response->tenderReferenceCode; // 1000111

By default, the projectOperation is 'CREATE_FROM_TEMPLATE'. This requires that the $project->tender->sourceTemplateCode or the $project->tender->sourceTemplateReferenceCode is set. The sourceTemplateCode is the tender_1234 style code and the sourceTemplateReferenceCode is the project_1234 style code.

$bravoApi = new BravoApi();

$project = new Project();
$project->tender->title = 'My Project Title';
$project->tender->sourceTemplateReferenceCode = 'project_1234';

$response = $bravoApi->createProject(
    project: $project, 
    fromTemplate: true
);

To create a new project without creating from a template, set the fromTemplate argument in createProject() to false;

$bravoApi = new BravoApi();

$project = new Project();
$project->tender->title = 'My Project Title';

$response = $bravoApi->createProject(
    project: $project, 
    fromTemplate: false
);

User Object

The User request object allows the Bravo username to be passed in to the login property, or you can use the Bravo id and name if they are known.

use NetworkRailBusinessSystems\BravoApi\RequestObjects\User;
use \NetworkRailBusinessSystems\BravoApi\RequestObjects\Project;

$user = new User();

// Set the login as the user's email address
$user->login = 'example@email.com';

// Or set the Bravo id and name if known
$user->id = '1234';
$user->name = 'Joe Bloggs';

$project = new Project();
$project->tender->projectOwner = $user;

Category List

The category list allows you to set the category code and the category name when creating the Project. The category code needs to match the category code exactly in Bravo.

use \NetworkRailBusinessSystems\BravoApi\RequestObjects\Category;
use \NetworkRailBusinessSystems\BravoApi\RequestObjects\Project;

$category = new Category();
$category->categoryName = 'A Test Category';
$category->categoryCode = '01.01.01.99';

$project = new Project();
$project->categoryList->category[] = $category;

Workflow Type

The workflow type is an instance of a Spatie Enum and has set values of LOCKED, UNLOCKED or NONE.

A tender has a default workflow type of NONE.

Lot Type

The lot type is an instance of a Spatie Enum and has set values of SINGLELOTS or MULTILOTS.

A tender has a default workflow type of SINGLELOTS.

Update Project

To update a project, the tenderCode or tenderReferenceCode is required, otherwise a BravoApiException is thrown.

use NetworkRailBusinessSystems\BravoApi\BravoApi;
use NetworkRailBusinessSystems\BravoApi\RequestObjects\Project;

$bravoApi = new BravoApi();

$project = new Project();

$project->tender->title = 'My Project Title';

$response = $bravoApi->updateProject($project);

echo $response->returnCode; // 0
echo $response->tenderCode; // 'tender_1000111
echo $response->tenderReferenceCode; // 1000111

Search Projects

Pass in the search term, based on the FIQL query string. Use the FIQL Query package for a more human-readable way to construct the filter.

The response will contain a project list, which contains a collection of projects.

use NetworkRailBusinessSystems\BravoApi\BravoApi;

$bravoApi = new BravoApi();
$response = $bravoApi->searchProjects('title==test');

echo $response->projectList->project->first()->tender->title; // Test

You can also pass in additional filters (deFilt and comp), as well as the startAt.

Get Project

Pass in the id for the project you wish to get.

use NetworkRailBusinessSystems\BravoApi\BravoApi;

$bravoApi = new BravoApi();
$response = $bravoApi->getProject('tender_10001');

echo $response->projectList->project->first()->tender->title; // Test

Tests

Run composer install to install dependencies and then vendor/bin/phpunit to run the tests.

Development

Run npm install to install husky for the post commit git hooks.

The package uses prettier to format the php code layout on git commit.

The package has Larastan installed for static analysis, which has also been added as a lint-staged task. To run it manually, run ./vendor/bin/phpstan analyse
