README

This Laravel 5 package provides an interface for using Salesforce CRM through its SOAP API.

(Laravel 4 Salesforce Package can be found here)

Major upgrade

This package is intended to support both Laravel 5.1 LTS and 5.2+.

Laravel 5.1 package will be kept under version 1.* Laravel 5.2 package will be kept under version 2.*

Consider this when installing or upgrading

It also fixes a too much consuming session at Salesforce, thus these new versions needs adding the section aliases under config/app.php

Installation

The Laravel 5 package can be installed via Composer by requiring the davispeixoto/laravel5-salesforce package in your project's composer.json.

{
    "require": {
        "davispeixoto/laravel5-salesforce": "~1.0"
    }
}

And running a composer update from your terminal:

php composer.phar update

To use the Salesforce Package, you must register the provider when bootstrapping your Laravel 5 application.

Find the providers key in your config/app.php and register the AWS Service Provider.

    'providers' => array(
        // ...
        Davispeixoto\Laravel5Salesforce\SalesforceServiceProvider::class,
    )
    
    'aliases' => array(
        // ...
        'Salesforce' => Davispeixoto\Laravel5Salesforce\SalesforceFacade::class,
    )

Configuration

By default, the package uses the following environment variables to auto-configure the plugin without modification:

SALESFORCE_USERNAME
SALESFORCE_PASSWORD
SALESFORCE_TOKEN

Place your your enterprise WSDL file into your app storage/app/wsdl/ directory.

To customize the configuration file, publish the package configuration using Artisan.

php artisan vendor:publish

Update the settings in the generated config/salesforce.php configuration file with your credentials.

return [
    'username' => 'YOUR_SALESFORCE_USERNAME',
    'password' => 'YOUR_SALESFORCE_PASSWORD',
    'token' => 'YOUR_SALESFORCE_TOKEN',
    'wsdl' => 'path/to/your/enterprise.wsdl.xml',
];

IMPORTANT: the PHP Force.com Toolkit for PHP only works with Enterprise WSDL

Usage

That's it! You're all set to go. Just use:

    Use Salesforce;
    Route::get('/test', function() {
        try {
            echo print_r(Salesforce::describeLayout('Account'), true);
        } catch (Exception $e) {
            echo $e->getMessage();
            echo $e->getTraceAsString();
        }
    });
