The AWS SDK for PHP makes it easy for developers to access Amazon Web Services in their PHP code, and build robust applications and software using services like Amazon S3, Amazon DynamoDB, Amazon Glacier, etc. You can get started in minutes by installing the SDK through Composer or by downloading a single zip or phar file from our latest release.

Getting Started

  1. Sign up for AWS – Before you begin, you need to sign up for an AWS account and retrieve your AWS credentials.
  2. Minimum requirements – To run the SDK, your system will need to meet the minimum requirements, including having PHP >= 5.5. We highly recommend having it compiled with the cURL extension and cURL 7.16.2+ compiled with a TLS backend (e.g., NSS or OpenSSL).
  3. Install the SDK – Using Composer is the recommended way to install the AWS SDK for PHP. The SDK is available via Packagist under the aws/aws-sdk-php package. If Composer is installed globally on your system, you can run the following in the base directory of your project to add the SDK as a dependency: 
    composer require aws/aws-sdk-php
    Please see the Installation section of the User Guide for more detailed information about installing the SDK through Composer and other means.
  4. Using the SDK – The best way to become familiar with how to use the SDK is to read the User Guide. The Getting Started Guide will help you become familiar with the basic concepts.
  5. Beta: Removing unused services — To date, there are over 300 AWS services available for use with this SDK. You will likely not need them all. If you use Composer and would like to learn more about this feature, please read the linked documentation.

Quick Examples

Create an Amazon S3 client

<?php
// Require the Composer autoloader.
require 'vendor/autoload.php';

use Aws\S3\S3Client;

// Instantiate an Amazon S3 client.
$s3 = new S3Client([
    'version' => 'latest',
    'region'  => 'us-west-2'
]);

Upload a file to Amazon S3

<?php
// Upload a publicly accessible file. The file size and type are determined by the SDK.
try {
    $s3->putObject([
        'Bucket' => 'my-bucket',
        'Key'    => 'my-object',
        'Body'   => fopen('/path/to/file', 'r'),
        'ACL'    => 'public-read',
    ]);
} catch (Aws\S3\Exception\S3Exception $e) {
    echo "There was an error uploading the file.\n";
}
