Improved Lightspeed eCom PHP API client

This package is a convenience wrapper to communicate with the Lightspeed eCom REST-API.

Requirements

To use the Lightspeed eCom PHP API client, the following things are required:

• PHP >= 5.4
• cURL, JSON, mbstring and FileInfo PHP extensions

Installation

By far the easiest way to install the Lightspeed eCom PHP API client is to require it with Composer.

$ composer require coddin-web/lightspeed-php-sdk:^1.9

{
    "require": {
        "coddin-web/lightspeed-php-sdk": "^1.9"
    }
}

Usage

There are a lot of API resources that are accessible through this client. You can look them up by looking at the code. Their name matches the name in the documentation.

<?php
require 'vendor/autoload.php';

$client = new \Lightspeed\ApiClient('[api-server]', '[api-key]', '[api-secret]', '[language]');

$shopInfo = $client->shop->get();

Explanation

[api-server] Available server(-clusters): live, eu1, us1

[api-key] The API key you've received or created

[api-secret] The API secret you've received or created

[language] Language shortcode that's available in the shop you're connecting to

Fetching response headers

After making a call, you can fetch the response headers from our API server and use it to check important data such as rate limiting.

$shopInfo = $client->shop->get();
$response = $shopInfo->getResponseHeaders();
