Dependencies:

• PHP 5.3 or later (not tested on versions older than PHP 5.3)

Requirements:

• Authentication requires an valid Account Number and License Key, which should be entered in the test file (e.g. GetTaxTest.php) you would like to run.
• If you do not have an AvaTax account, a free trial account can be acquired through our developer site
• SSL and SoapClient support must be enabled for your PHP interpreter. For windows, add the following extentions to php.ini:

extension=php_soap.dll
extension=php_openssl.dll

Note: For *nix, it may be necessary to recompile your PHP interpreter with soap.dll and openssl.dll enabled.

• If you would like to use these core classes as part of a project and manage your depencies through composer, the Avatax classes can be added to your existing project by adding

    "repositories": [
        {
            "type": "vcs",
            "url": "https://github.com/avadev/AvaTax-Calc-SOAP-PHP"
        }
    ],
    "require": {
        "avalara/avatax": "*"
    }

to your composer.json file and run php composer.phar update from your command line.
