bexio API PHP Client

The bexio API Client Library enables you to work with the bexio API. This is an early version and is still in development.

See the bexio API documentation for more information how to use the API.

Installation

You can use Composer or download the library.

Require this package with composer:

composer require christianruhstaller/bexio-api-php-client

Include the autoloader:

require_once '/path/to/your-project/vendor/autoload.php';

Examples

Get access token

require_once '../vendor/autoload.php';

$clientId = 'CLIENT_ID'; // The client id of your app
$clientSecret = 'CLIENT_SECRET'; // The client secret of your app
$redirectUri = 'http://localhost/bexio-api-php-client.php'; // Set here your Url where this script gets called
$scope = 'openid offline_access'; // A whitespace-separated list of scopes (see https://docs.bexio.com/#section/Authentication/API-Scopes).
$state = '8OTs2JTDcWDaPqV7o9aHVWqM'; // A random sequence. Should be used as a protection against CSRF-Attacks
$credentialsPath = 'client_credentials.json'; // Set the path where the credentials file will be stored

$client = new \Bexio\Client(
    [
        'clientId'     => $clientId,
        'clientSecret' => $clientSecret,
    ]
);
$client->setRedirectUri($redirectUri);

// If code is not set we need to get the authentication code
if (!isset($_GET['code'])) {
    $redirectTo = \Bexio\Client::OAUTH2_AUTH_URL.'?'.http_build_query(
            [
                'response_type' => 'code',
                'client_id'     => $clientId,
                'redirect_uri'  => $redirectUri,
                'scope'         => $scope,
                'state'         => $state,
            ]
        );

    header('Location: '.$redirectTo);
    exit;
} else {
    $accessToken = $client->fetchAccessTokenWithAuthCode($_GET['code']);
    file_put_contents($credentialsFile, json_encode($accessToken));
    exit;
}

Init client

    require_once '../vendor/autoload.php';
    
    $client = new \Bexio\Client([
        'clientId' => 'CLIENT_ID',
        'clientSecret' => 'CLIENT_SECRET',
    ]);
    
    $credentialsPath = 'PATH_TO_CREDENTIAL_FILE';
    
    if (!file_exists($credentialsPath)) {
        throw new \Exception('Credentials file not found for OAuth: '.$credentialsPath);
    }

    $accessToken = file_get_contents($credentialsPath);
    $client->setAccessToken($accessToken);

    if ($client->isAccessTokenExpired()) {
        $client->refreshToken($client->getRefreshToken());
        file_put_contents($credentialsPath, $client->getAccessToken());
    }

Get contacts

    $bexio = new \Bexio\Resource\Contact($client);
    
    $contacts = $bexio->getContacts();
