README

PHP SDK for Verstka API v2. Open the editor, handles signatures, callback processing, ZIP download, and media/font persistence through a storage adapter, and invoke site hooks.

Installation

composer require verstka/sdk

Requirements:

Requirement	Value
PHP	8.2+
Extensions	`ext-json`, `ext-hash`, `ext-zip`
HTTP client	Guzzle 7

Configuration

use Verstka\Sdk\Config\VerstkaConfig;

$config = new VerstkaConfig(
    apiKey: 'verstka-api-key',
    apiSecret: 'verstka-api-secret',
    callbackUrl: 'https://site.example/verstka/callback',
    apiUrl: 'https://api.r2.verstka.org/integration',
    maxContentSize: 200 * 1024 * 1024,
    requestTimeout: 60.0,
    downloadTimeout: 120.0,
    debug: false,
);

apiUrl defaults to https://api.r2.verstka.org/integration. maxContentSize defaults to 200 MiB when omitted.

Main methods

Method	Purpose
`VerstkaClient::getEditorUrl(...)`	Opens a session via `POST /session/open` and returns the editor URL.
`VerstkaClient::processMaterialCallback(...)`	Handles `article_saved`: signature, ZIP, media, `onFinalize`.
`VerstkaClient::processFontsCallback(...)`	Handles `site_fonts_updated`: signature, fonts ZIP, font files, manifests.
`StorageAdapter::saveMedia(...)`	Saves a file from `vms_media/*` and returns a public URL.
`StorageAdapter::saveFontFile(...)`	Saves a font file and returns a public URL.
`StorageAdapter::saveFontsManifest(...)`	Saves `vms_fonts.css` or `vms_fonts.json` and returns a URL.
`LocalStorageAdapter`	Filesystem reference storage adapter.
`CallbackDispatcher::dispatch(...)`	Routes a single callback endpoint by `event` field.
`CallbackDispatcher::mapException(...)`	Maps SDK exceptions to HTTP error responses.
`SignatureService::signMaterial(...)`	Builds HMAC for `material_id:url`.
`SignatureService::verifySignature(...)`	Verifies HMAC.
`UrlBuilder::buildAuthorizedContentUrl(...)`	Adds `api_key` and `material_id` to `content_url`.

Open editor

use Verstka\Sdk\Client\VerstkaClient;
use Verstka\Sdk\Config\VerstkaConfig;

$client = new VerstkaClient(new VerstkaConfig(...));

$editorUrl = $client->getEditorUrl(
    materialId: '42',
    vmsJson: $storedVmsJson,
    metadata: [
        // optional: 'anySiteAdditionalKey' => 'anySiteAdditionalValue',
        // optional: 'timeLimitedAuthToken' => 'cms-scope-token',
        // optional: 'customContainers' => [],
        // optional: 'webhook_auth_user' => 'callback-user', // (see Callback Authorization)
        // optional: 'webhook_auth_password' => 'callback-password',
    ],
);

Both vmsJson and metadata accept an array or a JSON string. The SDK sends metadata as a JSON object and automatically adds version: "php_<sdk-version>". For Basic Auth or a Bearer token, pass webhook_auth_user and optionally webhook_auth_password in metadata when calling getEditorUrl (see Callback Authorization).

Sites usually pass timeLimitedAuthToken and customContainers, plus any site-specific keys (e.g. anySiteAdditionalKey: anySiteAdditionalValue). Other custom keys are allowed — see metadata in the API docs.

Service keys: version_id, version_cdate, user_email, user_ip — Verstka adds or updates them in the callback after save; webhook_auth_user and webhook_auth_password authorize the outgoing callback (see Callback Authorization). Your callback handler usually ignores webhook_auth_*.

Open the editor in a separate tab:

<a href="<?= htmlspecialchars($getEditorUrlScript) ?>" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">
  Edit in Verstka
</a>

StorageAdapter

use Verstka\Sdk\Storage\StorageAdapter;

final class CmsStorage implements StorageAdapter
{
    public function saveMedia(
        string $filename,
        string $tempPath,
        string $materialId,
        array $metadata,
    ): string {
        return $this->saveToCdn("materials/$materialId/$filename", $tempPath);
    }

    public function saveFontFile(
        string $filename,
        string $tempPath,
        string $materialId,
        array $metadata,
    ): string {
        return $this->saveToCdn("verstka/fonts/$filename", $tempPath);
    }

    public function saveFontsManifest(
        string $filename,
        string $tempPath,
        string $materialId,
        array $metadata,
    ): string {
        return $this->saveToCdn("verstka/fonts/$filename", $tempPath);
    }
}

Material callback

use Verstka\Sdk\Finalize\ContentFinalizeContext;
use Verstka\Sdk\Finalize\ContentFinalizeResult;

$result = $client->processMaterialCallback(
    callbackData: $requestPayload,
    signature: $request->headers->get('X-Verstka-Signature', ''),
    storage: $storage,
    onFinalize: function (ContentFinalizeContext $ctx): ContentFinalizeResult {
        ArticleRepository::saveVerstkaContent(
            materialId: $ctx->materialId,
            html: $ctx->vmsHtml,
            vmsJson: $ctx->vmsJson,
            metadata: $ctx->metadata,
        );

        return new ContentFinalizeResult(success: true, vmsJson: $ctx->vmsJson);
    },
);

return json_response($result->toResponse());

ContentFinalizeContext contains materialId, metadata, vmsJson, vmsHtml, and savedMediaUrls. By the time the hook runs, the SDK has already replaced dummy-* URLs with public URLs from StorageAdapter.

Fonts callback

use Verstka\Sdk\Finalize\FontsFinalizeContext;
use Verstka\Sdk\Finalize\FontsFinalizeResult;

$result = $client->processFontsCallback(
    callbackData: $payload,
    signature: $signature,
    storage: $storage,
    onFinalize: function (FontsFinalizeContext $ctx): FontsFinalizeResult {
        SiteSettings::set('verstka_fonts_css_url', $ctx->cssUrl);
        SiteSettings::set('verstka_fonts_json_url', $ctx->jsonUrl);

        return new FontsFinalizeResult(success: true, fonts: $ctx->fonts);
    },
);

onFinalize for fonts may be omitted if saving files via storage and returning the updated fonts tree to Verstka is enough.

PreSave hooks

processMaterialCallback and processFontsCallback accept an optional onPreSave. It runs before ZIP download when your site needs extra validation of Verstka callback requests.

use Verstka\Sdk\Finalize\ContentPreSaveContext;
use Verstka\Sdk\Finalize\PreSaveDecision;

$result = $client->processMaterialCallback(
    callbackData: $payload,
    signature: $signature,
    storage: $storage,
    onFinalize: $onFinalize,
    onPreSave: function (ContentPreSaveContext $ctx): PreSaveDecision {
        if (!UserPolicy::canSave($ctx->metadata['timeLimitedAuthToken'] ?? null, $ctx->materialId)) {
            return new PreSaveDecision(allow: false, reason: 'Access denied');
        }

        return new PreSaveDecision(allow: true);
    },
);

If allow=false, the ZIP is not downloaded, no files are written, and Verstka receives rc: 0.

Unified callback endpoint

Use one POST /verstka/callback route for both material and fonts events. CallbackDispatcher is the same helper used inside Laravel and Symfony controllers:

use Verstka\Sdk\Integration\CallbackDispatcher;
use Verstka\Sdk\Finalize\ContentFinalizeContext;
use Verstka\Sdk\Finalize\ContentFinalizeResult;
use Verstka\Sdk\Finalize\FontsFinalizeContext;
use Verstka\Sdk\Finalize\FontsFinalizeResult;

try {
    $response = CallbackDispatcher::dispatch(
        client: $client,
        payload: $requestPayload,
        signature: $request->headers->get('X-Verstka-Signature', ''),
        storage: $storage,
        onContentFinalize: function (ContentFinalizeContext $ctx): ContentFinalizeResult {
            ArticleRepository::saveVerstkaContent(
                materialId: $ctx->materialId,
                html: $ctx->vmsHtml,
                vmsJson: $ctx->vmsJson,
                metadata: $ctx->metadata,
            );

            return new ContentFinalizeResult(success: true, vmsJson: $ctx->vmsJson);
        },
        onFontsFinalize: function (FontsFinalizeContext $ctx): FontsFinalizeResult {
            SiteSettings::set('verstka_fonts_css_url', $ctx->cssUrl);

            return new FontsFinalizeResult(success: true, fonts: $ctx->fonts);
        },
    );

    return json_response($response);
} catch (\Throwable $e) {
    $error = CallbackDispatcher::mapException($e);

    return json_response($error->toArray(), $error->status);
}

The dispatcher reads $payload['event']: site_fonts_updated routes to the fonts flow, everything else to the material flow.

Symfony and Laravel

Framework	What the SDK provides
Symfony	Bundle, DI configuration, `CallbackController`, exception subscriber.
Laravel	Service provider, config publish, auto route `POST /verstka/callback`, exception renderer.

Framework adapters register a single callback endpoint and call CallbackDispatcher internally — same routing by event.
