Google API Library (PHP) for use at UNCG

Google API Library - Laravel Wrapper

Contact: its-laravel-devs-l@uncg.edu

Introduction

This package is a Laravel wrapper for the UNCG Google API PHP Library package, so that the Google API PHP Library can be used in Laravel apps.

This is a work in progress. Not recommend for production apps just yet.

Installation

composer require 'uncgits/google-api-wrapper-laravel'
IF running Laravel 5.4 or below: Add Uncgits\GoogleApiLaravel\ServiceProvider::class, to your config/app.php file
Run php artisan vendor:publish --provider='Uncgits\GoogleApiLaravel\ServiceProvider' - to publish the google-api.php config file
Set your environment credentials in your .env file, and set your configuration options in config/google-api.php

GOOGLE_APPLICATION_CREDENTIALS= relative path to your google credentials .json
GOOGLE_DOMAIN = the domain
GOOGLE_ADMIN_ACCOUNT = account with admin rights
GOOGLE_CUSTOMER_ID = the customer ID string for your account (required for some but not all calls)

Dependencies

This package has dependencies on uncgits/google-api-php-library and barryvdh/laravel-debugbar (dev)

Usage

Basic Usage / Getting Started

In your code, assuming you've set your information/credentials properly in your .env file, you should be able to instantiate the Uncgits\GoogleApiLaravel\GoogleApi class, and then use any of its available methods (inherited from uncgits/google-api-php-libary) to make an API call.

As of version 0.3, no flash messaging package is included. You are free to install your own - recommend laracasts/flash or something that implements a similar API.

improvements to listGroupMembers() method so that it will handle pagination through group membership if necessary

0.17

Get Email

0.16.1

Remove deprecated (and unintentional) usage of required parameters following optional ones in several methods. This mostly affects default 'me' values for several methods, which would not have been usable anyway, so it should not be backward breaking.

0.16

Support for creating User Aliases

0.15

Add support for push notification channels

0.14.1

Add support for parameters in listOrgUnits call

0.14

Features related to Org Units
Features for updating POP/IMAP settings
Fixes for not returning to super-admin subject after impersonating a user
GZIP for results by default; add option in .env to turn this off

Features related to email configuration

0.12

Implement listing user email filters

0.11

Fixes config keys for HTTP proxy

NOTE: if upgrading, make sure you add the new config keys into your google-api.php config file, and set them in your .env file if using a proxy.

0.5

Changes to manually setting Google Credentials using setAuthConfig(), as the useApplicationDefaultCredentials() method was relying on getenv() under the hood... which does not play nicely with php artisan route:cache.

NOTE: if upgrading, make sure you add the new config key into your google-api.php config file

0.4

Change how we handle pagination for listUsers() since we can't get past memory limit issues...now returning one page plus the next page token.
