MessageCloud Gateway PHP Library

The MessageCloud Gateway PHP Library works with PHP 5.4+. It is also compatible with PHP 7.

Documentation

If you would rather build on top of the Gateway API from scratch, further documentation can be found in the MessageCloud Gateway docs.

Prerequisites

This library has been developed and tested on Mac OS 10.11.4 and Fedora 22.

The following README assumes that you are using the following PHP extensions:

php-curl
php-mbstring

Installation

Building with Composer

Using Composer you can easily download and build the app:

$ composer require messagecloud/gateway-php

Importing the Library

All you need to do to get started is add the following line at the top of your script:

require_once 'vendor/autoload.php';

To test that the library is working correctly you can run the following:

$objMessage = new SMSMessage(YOUR_COMPANY_NAME_HERE, YOUR_EKEY_HERE);
$objResult = $objMessage->msisdn('447528748500')->body('Hello, world!')->senderId('MessageCloud')->send();

if ($objResult->success()) {
    echo $objResult->getCallbackId();
} else {
    echo 'Error sending message! Code: ' . $objResult->getErrorCode() . ' (' . $objResult->getErrorMessage() . ')';
}

To which you will get a result similar to the following:

$ php test.php
123e4567-e89b-12d3-a456-426655440000

The callback ID can be used when receiving the delivery reports for your requests. Each delivery report will contain an id parameter containing the ID returned by the SMSMessage::getCallbackId() function.

You can also include the following line underneath your require_once() function as a shortcut to the SMSMessage object:

use MessageCloud\Gateway\SMSMessage as SMSMessage;
