api.video's PHP API client streamlines the coding process. Chunking files is handled for you, as is pagination and refreshing your tokens.

composer require api-video/php-api-client

Due to PHP PSR support, you must initialize the client with 3 to 5 arguments:

1. Base URI, which can be either https://sandbox.api.video or https://ws.api.video
2. Your API key, available on your account
3. HTTP client
4. (Request factory)
5. (Stream factory)

Note : If the HTTP client also implements RequestFactoryInterface and StreamFactoryInterface, then it is not necessary to pass this object in 4th and 5th argument.

The Symfony HTTP client has the triple advantage of playing the role of HTTP client, but also of request factory and stream factory. It is therefore sufficient to pass it as an argument 3 times.

If the HTTP client isn't yet in your project, you can add it with:

composer require symfony/http-client
composer require nyholm/psr7

<?php
require __DIR__ . '/vendor/autoload.php';

$httpClient = new \Symfony\Component\HttpClient\Psr18Client();
$client = new \ApiVideo\Client\Client(
    'https://sandbox.api.video',
    'YOUR_API_KEY',
    $httpClient
);
?>

$payload = (new VideoCreationPayload())
    ->setTitle('Test video creation');

// the `$client` must already be initialized.
$video = $client->videos()->create($payload);

$payload = (new VideoCreationPayload())
    ->setTitle('Test video creation');

$video = $client->videos()->create($payload);

// the `$client` must already be initialized.
$client->videos()->upload(
    $video->getVideoId(),
    new SplFileObject(__DIR__.'/../earth.mp4')
);

Some endpoints don't require authentication. These one can be called with a Client instantiated with a null API key:

<?php
require __DIR__ . '/vendor/autoload.php';

$httpClient = new \Symfony\Component\HttpClient\Psr18Client();
$client = new \ApiVideo\Client\Client(
    'https://sandbox.api.video',
    null,
    $httpClient
);
?>

The video is automatically split into 50 Mb chunks.

To modify the size of the chunks, fill in the last argument $contentRange as follows:

• bytes 0-{size}/0 where {size} is the size of the chunk.

For example : bytes 0-500000/0 for 500 Kb chunks.

The chunks size value must be between 5 Mb and 128mb.

In order to run the PhpUnit tests, it is necessary to enter two variables in the command line:

• BASE_URI (for example : https://sandbox.api.video)
• API_KEY

These identifiers must belong to a real api.video account.

$ BASE_URI="" API_KEY="..." vendor/bin/phpunit

Please take a moment to leave a star on the client ⭐

This helps other users to find the clients and also helps us understand which clients are most popular. Thank you!

Since this API client is generated from an OpenAPI description, we cannot accept pull requests made directly to the repository. If you want to contribute, you can open a pull request on the repository of our client generator. Otherwise, you can also simply open an issue detailing your need on this repository.
