PHPCALLER - A PHP wrapper for the Truecaller API

PHPCaller is a command line tool made in PHP to fetch data from the truecaller API

To use the PhpCaller, first you'll need to get your "bearer ID". For that you can go to http://www.truecaller.com/ from your PC and search for any number. It will ask you to login or complete an oAuth procedure (if you haven't already logged in to their site). After the login is done open your console and paste this script (don't worry, the changes made are temporary, and it's not a malware)

(function(setRequestHeader) {
    XMLHttpRequest.prototype.setRequestHeader = function(key, val) {
     if(key == "Authorization") document.write("<h1>"+val.replace("Bearer ", "")+"</h1>");
    };
})(XMLHttpRequest.prototype.setRequestHeader);

Now search for another number, and you should be able to see a code in your screen. That is your bearer ID. Copy it and run the command php truecaller setBearer <your_bearer_id>

So if your bearer ID is Y99Opnpg2e5_KDZpys6RRASvym7 then you should type

php truecaller setBearer Y99Opnpg2e5_KDZpys6RRASvym7

to set your bearer

Now you're all set to go! Type,

php truecaller search <number>

to get a JSON response from truecaller about the number

NOTE To get the response without the colour codes (for when you're calling this script from a different application or bot) just add ignore-decoration at the end of the command.

Eg, php truecaller search 9876543210 ignore-decoration

Example:

php truecaller search 9876543210

You can also type php truecaller list or php truecaller help to get a list of all commands or to read this README respectively.

There is also a browser implementation of it, in index.php. Check the code for further implementation details or feel free too drop me a mail if you have any questions!
