The LINE Messaging API SDK for PHP makes it easy to develop bots using LINE Messaging API, and you can create a sample bot within minutes.
See the official API documentation for more information.
- English: https://developers.line.biz/en/docs/messaging-api/overview/
- Japanese: https://developers.line.biz/ja/docs/messaging-api/overview/
- PHP 5.5 or later
Install the LINE Messaging API SDK using Composer.
$ composer require linecorp/line-bot-sdk
The bot client instance is a handler of the Messaging API.
$httpClient = new \LINE\LINEBot\HTTPClient\CurlHTTPClient('<channel access token>');
$bot = new \LINE\LINEBot($httpClient, ['channelSecret' => '<channel secret>']);
The constructor of the bot client requires an instance of HTTPClient
.
This library provides CurlHTTPClient
by default.
You can call an API through the bot client instance.
A very simple example:
$response = $bot->replyText('<reply token>', 'hello!');
This procedure sends a message to the destination that is associated with <reply token>
.
A more advanced example:
$textMessageBuilder = new \LINE\LINEBot\MessageBuilder\TextMessageBuilder('hello');
$response = $bot->replyMessage('<reply token>', $textMessageBuilder);
if ($response->isSucceeded()) {
echo 'Succeeded!';
return;
}
// Failed
echo $response->getHTTPStatus() . ' ' . $response->getRawBody();
LINEBot#replyMessage()
takes the reply token and MessageBuilder
.
The method sends a message that is built by MessageBuilder
to the destination.
The type of message that is sent depends on the type of instance of MessageBuilder
.
For example, the method sends a text message if you pass TextMessageBuilder
and it sends an image message if you pass ImageMessageBuilder
.
For more detailed information on MessageBuilder
, see \LINE\LINEBot\MessageBuilder
and the namespace.
Other methods that take MessageBuilder
behave in the same way.
Methods that call API returns Response
. A Response
instance has following methods:
Response#isSucceeded()
Response#getHTTPStatus()
Response#getRawBody()
Response#getJSONDecodedBody()
Response#getHeader($name)
Response#getHeaders()
You can use these methods to check the response status and take response body.
Returns a Boolean value. The return value represents whether the request succeeded or not.
Returns the HTTP status code of a response.
Returns the body of the response as raw data (a byte string).
Returns the body that is decoded in JSON. This body is an array.
This method returns a response header string, or null if the response does not have a header of that name.
This method returns all of the response headers as string array.
LINE's server sends user actions (such as a message, image, or location) to your bot server. Request of that contains event(s); event is action of the user.
The following shows how the webhook is handled:
- Receive webhook from LINE's server.
- Parse request payload by
LINEBot#parseEventRequest($body, $signature)
. - Iterate parsed events and some react as you like.
The following examples show how webhooks are handled:
For more information, see the official API documents and PHPDoc.
If it's your first time using this library, we recommend taking a look at examples
and the PHPDoc of \LINE\LINEBot
.
This repository contains two examples of how to use the LINE Messaging API.
A simple sample implementation. This application reacts to text messages that are sent from users.
A full-stack (and slightly complex) sample implementation. This application demonstrates a practical use of the LINE Messaging API.
https://line.github.io/line-bot-sdk-php/
This library provides PHPDoc to describe how to use the methods. You can generate the documentation using apigen using the following command.
$ make doc
The HTML files are generated in docs/
.
Official API documents shows the detail of Messaging API and fundamental usage of SDK.
- Implement
\LINE\LINEBot\HTTPClient
- Pass the implementation to the constructor of
\LINE\LINEBot
Please refer CurlHTTPClient that is the default HTTP client implementation.
A very simple SDK (subset) for the LINE Messaging API for PHP. line-bot-sdk-tiny provides a simple interface and functions which makes it a good way to learn how to use the LINE Messaging API.
