Prerequisites

You must have "APP ID" to target the right App. Want to create your app?

App owner/administrator:

Sign in to go.mysocialapp.io and go to API section. Your APP ID is part of the endpoint URL provided to your app. Which is something like https://u123456789123a123456-api.mysocialapp.io. Your APP ID is u123456789123a123456

App user:

Ask for an administrator to give you the APP ID.

Usage

To use the SDK, you must use any of the currently available autoload (cf. autoload).

Here is an example of this SDK usage. Much more examples are coming very soon.

<?php
// Example of autoload script
spl_autoload_register(function ($class) {
    $c = explode("\\", $class);
    if (count($c) == 0 || strlen($c[0]) > 0) {
        while (count($c) > 0) {
            if (file_exists(__DIR__ . "/" . implode("/", $c) . ".php")) {
                require_once __DIR__ . "/" . implode("/", $c) . ".php";
                break;
            }
            if (count($c) == 1 && file_exists($c[0] . ".php")) {
                require_once $c[0] . ".php";
                break;
            }
            array_pop($c);
        }
    }
});

// First, create the main instance to access the API
$msa = (new \MySocialApp\MySocialAppBuilder())
    // Set the app id matching your application. Here is the test application
    ->setAppId("u470584465854a728453")
    // If you want to debug the API calls, add the following part
    // ->setClientConfiguration(new \MySocialApp\Services\ClientConfiguration(10000,10000, array(), true))
    ->build();

// Create a new user account
$session = $msa->createAccount("myusername", "myemail@mydomain.com", "mypassword", "my first name");
// If the account is already created, replace the line above with this one below
// $session = $msa->connectByEmail("myemail@mydomain.com", "mypassword");

if ($session instanceof \MySocialApp\Models\Error) {
    // Something went wrong, let's display the error
    echo $session;
} else {
    // Set the user external id to match another system's id
    $myAccount = $session->getAccount()->get();
    $myAccount->setExternalId("My external id, can be any string");
    $myAccount->save();

    // Add another user as a friend
    $anotherUser = $session->getUser()->getByExternalId("Another external id");
    $anotherUser->requestAsFriend();

    // Post a new message on the wall
    $myAccount->sendWallPost(
        (new \MySocialApp\Models\FeedPostBuilder())
            ->setMessage("My new message on the wall")
            ->setVisibility(\MySocialApp\Models\AccessControl::_PUBLIC)
            ->build()
    );

    // Once everything is done, disconnect
    $session->disconnect();
}
