How to Build

The generated code has dependencies over external libraries like UniRest. These dependencies are defined in the composer.json file that comes with the SDK. To resolve these dependencies, we use the Composer package manager which requires PHP greater than 5.3.2 installed in your system. Visit https://getcomposer.org/download/ to download the installer file for Composer and run it in your system. Open command prompt and type composer --version. This should display the current version of the Composer installed if the installation was successful.

• Using command line, navigate to the directory containing the generated files (including composer.json) for the SDK.
• Run the command composer install. This should install all the required dependencies and create the vendor directory in your project directory.

[For Windows Users Only] Configuring CURL Certificate Path in php.ini

CURL used to include a list of accepted CAs, but no longer bundles ANY CA certs. So by default it will reject all SSL certificates as unverifiable. You will have to get your CA's cert and point curl at it. The steps are as follows:

1. Download the certificate bundle (.pem file) from https://curl.haxx.se/docs/caextract.html on to your system.
2. Add curl.cainfo = "PATH_TO/cacert.pem" to your php.ini file located in your php installation. “PATH_TO” must be an absolute path containing the .pem file.

[curl]
; A default value for the CURLOPT_CAINFO option. This is required to be an
; absolute path.
;curl.cainfo =

How to Use

The following section explains how to use the Messages library in a new project.

1. Open Project in an IDE

Open an IDE for PHP like PhpStorm. The basic workflow presented here is also applicable if you prefer using a different editor or IDE.

Click on Open in PhpStorm to browse to your generated SDK directory and then click OK.

2. Add a new Test Project

Create a new directory by right clicking on the solution name as shown below:

Name the directory as "test"

Add a PHP file to this project

Name it "testSDK"

Depending on your project setup, you might need to include composer's autoloader in your PHP code to enable auto loading of classes.

require_once "../vendor/autoload.php";

It is important that the path inside require_once correctly points to the file autoload.php inside the vendor directory created during dependency installations.

After this you can add code to initialize the client library and acquire the instance of a Controller class. Sample code to initialize the client library and using controller methods is given in the subsequent sections.

3. Run the Test Project

To run your project you must set the Interpreter for your project. Interpreter is the PHP engine installed on your computer.

Open Settings from File menu.

Select PHP from within Languages & Frameworks

Browse for Interpreters near the Interpreter option and choose your interpreter.

Once the interpreter is selected, click OK

To run your project, right click on your PHP file inside your Test project and click on Run

How to Test

Unit tests in this SDK can be run using PHPUnit.

1. First install the dependencies using composer including the require-dev dependencies.
2. Run vendor\bin\phpunit --verbose from commandline to execute tests. If you have installed PHPUnit globally, run tests using phpunit --verbose instead.

You can change the PHPUnit test configuration in the phpunit.xml file.

Initialization

API client can be initialized as following.

$client = new MessagesLib\MessagesClient();

Class Reference

List of Controllers

• MessagesController
• DeliveryReportsController
• RepliesController

MessagesController

Get singleton instance

The singleton instance of the MessagesController class can be accessed from the API Client.

$messages = $client->getMessages();

updateCancelScheduledMessage

Cancel a scheduled message that has not yet been delivered. A scheduled messages can be cancelled by updating the status of a message from scheduled to cancelled. This is done by submitting a PUT request to the messages endpoint using the message ID as a parameter (the same endpoint used above to retrieve the status of a message). The body of the request simply needs to contain a status property with the value set to cancelled.

{
    "status": "cancelled"
}

Note: Only messages with a status of scheduled can be cancelled. If an invalid or non existent message ID parameter is specified in the request, then a HTTP 404 Not Found response will be returned

function updateCancelScheduledMessage(
        $messageId,
        $body)

Parameters

Parameter	Tags	Description
messageId	Required	TODO: Add a parameter description

getMessageStatus

Retrieve the current status of a message using the message ID returned in the send messages end point. A successful request to the get message status endpoint will return a response body as follows:

{
    "format": "SMS",
    "content": "My first message!",
    "metadata": {
        "key1": "value1",
        "key2": "value2"
    },
    "message_id": "877c19ef-fa2e-4cec-827a-e1df9b5509f7",
    "callback_url": "https://my.callback.url.com",
    "delivery_report": true,
    "destination_number": "+61401760575",
    "scheduled": "2016-11-03T11:49:02.807Z",
    "source_number": "+61491570157",
    "source_number_type": "INTERNATIONAL"
    "message_expiry_timestamp": "2016-11-03T11:49:02.807Z",
    "status": "enroute"
}

The status property of the response indicates the current status of the message. See the Delivery Reports section of this documenation for more information on message statues. Note: If an invalid or non existent message ID parameter is specified in the request, then a HTTP 404 Not Found response will be returned

function getMessageStatus($messageId)

createSendMessages

Submit one or more (up to 100 per request) SMS or text to voice messages for delivery. The most basic message has the following structure:

{
    "messages": [
        {
            "content": "My first message!",
            "destination_number": "+61491570156"
        }
    ]
}

More advanced delivery features can be specified by setting the following properties in a message:

• callback_url A URL can be included with each message to which webhooks will be pushed to via a HTTP POST request. Webhooks will be sent if and when the status of the message changes as it is processed (if the delivery report property of the request is set to true) and when replies are received. Specifying a callback URL is optional.
• content The content of the message. This can be a Unicode string, up to 5,000 characters long. Message content is required.
• delivery_report Delivery reports can be be requested with each message. If delivery reports are requested, a webhook will be submitted to the callback_url property specified for the message (or to the webhooks) specified for the account every time the status of the message changes as it is processed. The current status of the message can also be retrieved via the Delivery Reports endpoint of the Messages API. Delivery reports are optional and by default will not be requested.
• destination_number The destination number the message should be delivered to. This should be specified in E.164 international format. For information on E.164, please refer to http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/E.164. A destination number is required.
• format The format specifies which format the message will be sent as, SMS (text message) or TTS (text to speech). With TTS format, we will call the destination number and read out the message using a computer generated voice. Specifying a format is optional, by default SMS will be used.
• source_number A source number may be specified for the message, this will be the number that the message appears from on the handset. By default this feature is not available and will be ignored in the request. Please contact support@messagemeda.com for more information. Specifying a source number is optional and a by default a source number will be assigned to the message.
• source_number_type If a source number is specified, the type of source number may also be specified. This is recommended when using a source address type that is not an internationally formatted number, available options are INTERNATIONAL, ALPHANUMERIC or SHORTCODE. Speciying a source number type is only valid when a the source_number parameter is specified and is optional. If a source number is specified and no source number type is specified, the source number type will be inferred from the source number, however this may be inaccurate.
• scheduled A message can be scheduled for delivery in the future by setting the scheduled property. The scheduled property expects a date time specified in ISO 8601 format. The scheduled time must be provided in UTC and is optional. If no scheduled property is set, the message will be delivered immediately.
• message_expiry_timestamp A message expiry timestamp can be provided to specify the latest time at which the message should be delivered. If the message cannot be delivered before the specified message expiry timestamp elapses, the message will be discarded. Specifying a message expiry timestamp is optional.
• metadata Metadata can be included with the message which will then be included with any delivery reports or replies matched to the message. This can be used to create powerful two-way messaging applications without having to store persitant data in the application. Up to 10 key / value metada data pairs can be specified in a message. Each key can be up to 100 characters long, and each value up to 256 characters long. Specifiying metadata for a message is optional. The response body of a successful POST request to the messages endpoint will include a messages property which contains a list of all messages submitted. The list of messages submitted will reflect the list of messages included in the request, but each message will also contain two new properties, message_id and status. The returned message ID will be a 36 character UUID which can be used to check the status of the message via the Get Message Status endpoint. The status of the message which reflect the status of the message at submission time which will always be queued. See the Delivery Reports section of this documenation for more information on message statues. Note: when sending multiple messages in a request, all messages must be valid for the request to be successful. If any messages in the request are invalid, no messages will be sent.

$deliveryReports = $client->getDeliveryReports();

getCheckDeliveryReports

Check for any delivery reports that have been received. Delivery reports are a notification of the change in status of a message as it is being processed. Each request to the check delivery reports endpoint will return any delivery reports received that have not yet been confirmed using the confirm delivery reports endpoint. A response from the check delivery reports endpoint will have the following structure:

}

Each delivery report will contain details about the message, including any metadata specified and the new status of the message (as each delivery report indicates a change in status of a message) and the timestamp at which the status changed. Every delivery report will have a unique delivery report ID for use with the confirm delivery reports endpoint. Note: The source number and destination number properties in a delivery report are the inverse of those specified in the message that the delivery report relates to. The source number of the delivery report is the destination number of the original message. Subsequent requests to the check delivery reports endpoint will return the same delivery reports and a maximum of 100 delivery reports will be returned in each request. Applications should use the confirm delivery reports endpoint in the following pattern so that delivery reports that have been processed are no longer returned in subsequent check delivery reports requests.

1. Call check delivery reports endpoint
2. Process each delivery report
3. Confirm all processed delivery reports using the confirm delivery reports endpoint Note: It is recommended to use the webhooks feature to receive reply messages rather than polling the check delivery reports endpoint.

function getCheckDeliveryReports()

Example Usage

$result = $deliveryReports->getCheckDeliveryReports();

createConfirmDeliveryReportsAsReceived

Mark a delivery report as confirmed so it is no longer return in check delivery reports requests. The confirm delivery reports endpoint is intended to be used in conjunction with the check delivery reports endpoint to allow for robust processing of delivery reports. Once one or more delivery reports have been processed, they can then be confirmed using the confirm delivery reports endpoint so they are no longer returned in subsequent check delivery reports requests. The confirm delivery reports endpoint takes a list of delivery report IDs as follows:

{
    "delivery_report_ids": [
        "011dcead-6988-4ad6-a1c7-6b6c68ea628d",
        "3487b3fa-6586-4979-a233-2d1b095c7718",
        "ba28e94b-c83d-4759-98e7-ff9c7edb87a1"
