README

The bexio API Client Library enables you to work with the bexio API. This is an early version and is still in development.

See the bexio API documentation for more information how to use the API.

Installation

You can use Composer or download the library.

Require this package with composer:

$ composer require onlime/bexio-api-client

Include the autoloader:

require_once '/path/to/your-project/vendor/autoload.php';

Examples

A fully working example can be found in samples/ directory.

Authenticate to get access and refresh tokens:

<?php
require_once '../vendor/autoload.php';

use Bexio\Client;

/**
 * $clientId: The client ID you have received from Bexio developer portal (https://developer.bexio.com/).
 * $clientSecret: The client secret you have received from Bexio developer portal (https://developer.bexio.com/).
 * $redirectUrl: Set your URL where this script gets called and set it as allowed redirect URL in your app settings in Bexio developer portal (https://developer.bexio.com/).
 * $scopes: A list of scopes (see https://docs.bexio.com/#section/Authentication/API-Scopes).
 * $tokensFile: Set the path where the credentials file will be stored.
 */
$clientId = 'xxxxxxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxxxxxxxxxx';
$clientSecret = 'xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx';
$redirectUrl = 'http://localhost:8000/auth.php';
$scopes = ['openid', 'profile', 'contact_edit', 'offline_access', 'kb_invoice_edit', 'bank_payment_edit'];
$tokensFile = 'client_tokens.json';

$client = new Client($clientId, $clientSecret);
$client->authenticate($scopes, $redirectUrl);
$client->persistTokens($tokensFile);

Init client:

<?php
require_once '../vendor/autoload.php';

use Bexio\Client;

$clientId = 'xxxxxxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxxxxxxxxxx';
$clientSecret = 'xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx';
$tokensFile = 'client_tokens.json';

$client = new Client($clientId, $clientSecret);
$client->loadTokens($tokensFile);

Get contacts:

<?php
use Bexio\Resource\Contact;

$bexioContact = new Contact($client);
$contacts = $bexioContact->getContacts();

Usage:

  1. Ensure you have allowed your local direct URL in Bexio Developer Portal, e.g. http://localhost:8000/auth.php
  2. Fill $clientId and $clientSecret in both samples/auth.php and samples/sample.php with your Bexio API credentials.
  3. Fire up the local dev server (see below).
  4. Access http://localhost:8000/auth.php in your browser.
  5. Authenticate with your Bexio login to provide access to the app via access token.
  6. Bexio will redirect you back to http://localhost:8000/auth.php which will present: Sucessfully authenticated. Proceed to sample.php
  7. Once you access http://localhost:8000/sample.php, you should be already authenticated (using the current token stored in client_tokens.json) and your contacts are listed.
$ cd samples/
$ php -S localhost:8000

Authors

Author of this awesome package is Philip Iezzi (Onlime GmbH).

Large parts of this package were ported from the original christianruhstaller/bexio-api-php-client. Credits go to Christian Ruhstaller, the bolloon guy.

This fork was detached from the original repository in March 2022, as the codebases have diverged quite a bit. Beware: Both projects currently don't represent a full-featured Bexio API client library, both being limited to just a subset of all API methods.

This package is licenced under the MIT license however support is more than welcome.
