PHP package for CodeCombat REST API
codecombat-api is a package for the CodeCombat REST API. It provides an abstracted interface to talk with the CodeCombat API. The Package contains a Laravel ServiceProvider to inject it into the Laravel Service Container, but other than that the package is framework-agnostic. Please look at the CodeCombat API Documentation for more details and do not be afraid to peruse the source code on this package.
Installation
composer require timutech/codecombat-api
Configuration
You will preferably need to have your own OAuth2 server. You will need to have a lookup URL where CodeCombat can query an AccessToken you give them and then you will return the User on your system linked to that AccessToken.
eg
https://yoursite.com/api/auth/{token}
which returns a User with a required id
field.
Normal
Make sure you keep your CodeCombat OAuth {CLIENT_ID}
, {CLIENT_SECRET}
and {OAUTH_PROVIDER_ID}
in whatever config you have as you will need it to instantiate an instance.
Laravel
Add the line TimuTech\CodeCombat\CodeCombatserviceProvider::class,
like below in your config/app.php
file.
'providers' => [ // Other TimuTech\CodeCombat\CodeCombatServiceProvider::class, ],
Add your CodeCombat OAuth credentials to your config/services.php
file, as below.
// Other services 'codecombat' => [ 'id' => '{CLIENT_ID}', 'secret' => '{CLIENT_SECRET}', 'provider_id' => '{OAUTH_PROVIDER_ID}' ]
Usage
Refer to the source code for other functionality or create a pull request for addition of functionality. I will endeavour to keep adding features whenever I can.
Normal
Instantiate
$codecombat = new CodeCombat( {CLIENT_ID}, {CLIENT_SECRET}, {OAUTH_PROVIDER_ID});
Create a new user
$user = {A user from your system} $combatUser = $codecombat->register([ 'name' => $user->name, // UNIQUE Nick Name 'email' => $user->email, // NEW Email, 'role' => 'student' //or 'teacher' ]);
Assign an OAuth Identity
$token = {YOUR OAuth2 token, generated for your user from your server} $codecombat->setAuth($token)->createIdentity($combatUser);
Retrieve the user later
$handle = {UNIQUE Nick Name assigned earlier or the CodeCombat ID of the user, if you have it} $combatUser = $codecombat->getUser($handle);
Get the url to redirect to CodeCombat
$token = {YOUR OAuth2 token, generated for your user from your server} $url = $codecombat->setAuth($token)->redirect();
The TimuTech\CodeCombat\Resources\CombatUser
class has some helpful methods and attributes, to name a few:
$combatUser->getEmail(); $combatUser->getId(); $combatUser->getProfile();
Once again, the source code is your friend.
