PHP GitHub API

A simple Object Oriented wrapper for GitHub API, written with PHP5.

    $github = new Github_Client();
    $myRepos = $github->getRepoApi()->getUserRepos('ornicar');

Uses GitHub API v2. The object API is very similar to the RESTful API.

Features

  • Covers 100% of GitHub API with PHP methods
  • Supports 3 authentication methods
  • Follows PEAR conventions and coding standard: autoload friendly
  • Light and fast thanks to lazy loading of API classes
  • Flexible and extensible thanks to dependency injection
  • Extensively tested and documented

Requirements

  • PHP 5.2 or 5.3.
  • php curl, but it is possible to write another transport layer.
  • PHPUnit to run tests.

Autoload

The first step to use php-github-api is to register its autoloader:

    require_once '/path/to/lib/Github/Autoloader.php';
    Github_Autoloader::register();

Replace the /path/to/lib/ path with the path you used for php-github-api installation.

php-github-api follows the PEAR convention names for its classes, which means you can easily integrate php-github-api classes loading in your own autoloader.

instantiate a new github client

    $github = new Github_Client();

From this object, you can access to all GitHub apis, listed below.

Pull Requests

Go back to the Navigation

Lets you list pull requests for a given repository, list one pull request in particular along with its discussion, and create a pull-request. Wraps GitHub Pull Request API, still tagged BETA. All methods are described there.

List all pull requests, per repository

List open pull requests

    $openPullRequests = $github->getPullRequestApi()->listPullRequests( "ezsystems", "ezpublish", 'open' );

The last parameter of the listPullRequests method default to 'open'. The call above is equivalent to :

    $openPullRequests = $github->getPullRequestApi()->listPullRequests( "ezsystems", "ezpublish" );

$openPullRequests contains an array of open pull-requests for this repository.

List closed pull requests

    $closedPullRequests = $github->getPullRequestApi()->listPullRequests( "ezsystems", "ezpublish", 'closed' );

$closedPullRequests contains an array of closed pull-requests for this repository.

List one pull request in particular, along with its discussion

    $pullRequest15 = $github->getPullRequestApi()->show( "ezsystems", "ezpublish", 15 );

The last parameter of this call, Pull request ID, can be either extracted from the results of the listPullRequests results ( 'number' key for a listed pull-request ), or added manually.

The $pullRequest15 array contains the same elements as every entry in the result of a listPullRequests call, plus a "discussion" key, self-explanatory.

Create a pull request

A pull request can either be created by supplying both the Title & Body, OR an Issue ID. Details regarding the content of parameters 3 and 4 of the create method are presented here : http://develop.github.com/p/pulls.html .

Populated with Title and Body

Requires authentication.

    $title = "My nifty pull request";
    $body  = "This pull request contains a bunch of enhancements and bug-fixes, happily shared with you";
    $github->getPullRequestApi()->create( "ezsystems", "ezpublish", "master", "testbranch", $title, $body );

This returns the details of the pull request.

Populated with Issue ID

Requires authentication. The issue ID is provided instead of title and body.

    $issueId = 15;
    $github->getPullRequestApi()->create( "ezsystems", "ezpublish", "master", "testbranch", null, null, $issueId );

This returns the details of the pull request.

Request any Route

Go back to the Navigation

The method you need does not exist yet? You can access any GitHub route by using the "get" and "post" methods. For example,

    $repo = $github->get('repos/show/ornicar/php-github-api');

Returns an array describing the php-github-api repository.

See all GitHub API routes: http://develop.github.com/

Authentication & Security

Go back to the Navigation

Most GitHub services do not require authentication, but some do. For example the methods that allow you to change properties on Repositories and some others. Therefore this step is facultative.

Authenticate

GitHub provides some different ways of authentication. This API implementation implements three of them which are handled by one function:

    $github->authenticate($username, $secret, $method);

$username is, of course, the username. $method is optional. The three allowed values are:

  • Github_Client::AUTH_URL_TOKEN (default, if $method is omitted)
  • Github_Client::AUTH_HTTP_TOKEN
  • Github_Client::AUTH_HTTP_PASSWORD

The required value of $secret depends on the choosen $method. For the AUTH_*_TOKEN methods, you should provide the API token here. For the AUTH_HTTP_PASSWORD, you should provide the password of the account.

After executing the $github->authenticate($username, $secret, $method); method using correct credentials, all further requests are done as the given user.

About authentication methods

The Github_Client::AUTH_URL_TOKEN authentication method sends the username and API token in URL parameters. The Github_Client::AUTH_HTTP_* authentication methods send their values to GitHub using HTTP Basic Authentication. Github_Client::AUTH_URL_TOKEN used to be the only available authentication method. To prevent existing applications from changing their behavior in case of an API upgrade, this method is choosen as the default for this API implementation. Note however that GitHub describes this method as deprecated. In most case you should use the Github_Client::AUTH_HTTP_TOKEN instead.

Deauthenticate

If you want to stop new requests from being authenticated, you can use the deAuthenticate method.

    $github->deAuthenticate();

Customize php-github-api

Go back to the Navigation

The library is highly configurable and extensible thanks to dependency injection.

Configure the http client

Wanna change, let's say, the http client User Agent?

    $github->getHttpClient()->setOption('user_agent', 'My new User Agent');

See all available options in Github/HttpClient.php

Inject a new http client instance

php-github-api provides a curl-based implementation of a http client. If you want to use your own http client implementation, inject it to the Github_Client instance:

    // create a custom http client
    class MyHttpClient extends Github_HttpClient
    {
        public function doRequest($url, array $parameters = array(), $httpMethod = 'GET', array $options = array())
        {
            // send the request and return the raw response
        }
    }

Your http client implementation may not extend Github_HttpClient, but only implement Github_HttpClientInterface.

You can now inject your http client through Github_Client constructor:

    $github = new Github_Client(new MyHttpClient());

Or to an existing Github_Client instance:

    $github->setHttpClient(new MyHttpClient());

Inject a new API part instance

If you want to use your own implementation of an API, inject it to the GitHubApi. For example, to replace the user API:

    // create a custom User API
    class MyGithubApiUser extends Github_Api_User
    {
      // overwrite things
    }

    $github->setApi('user', new MyGithubApiUser($github));

Run Test Suite

Go back to the Navigation

The code is unit tested. To run tests on your machine, from a CLI, run

phpunit
