Collmex API PHP SDK

This library provides a wrapper for the Collmex API. It's not complete yet, some record types (and maybe some features) are missing.

Please create a Pull Request if you've implemented a new type/feature or create Issues for bugs/feature requests.

There is (or least should be…) a Type class for every Collmex record type ("Satzart"). Currently only the base types (MESSAGE, LOGIN, NEW_OBJECT_ID) and a few normal record types (CMXKND, CMXINV, CMXABO, CMXUMS) are implemented.

Installation

Using Composer, just add it to your composer.json by running:

composer require mjaschen/collmex

Compatibility

The Collmex PHP SDK requires PHP 5.5.9. If you're still using older PHP versions, you can install the 0.4 branch for PHP 5.4 compatibility or the 0.3 branch for PHP 5.3 compatibility. New features will only go into the current branch.

Usage/Examples

Request information from Collmex API

Load a Collmex Customer record:

<?php

use \MarcusJaschen\Collmex\Client\Curl as CurlClient;
use \MarcusJaschen\Collmex\Request;
use \MarcusJaschen\Collmex\Type\CustomerGet;

// initialize HTTP client
$collmexClient = new CurlClient("USER", "PASSWORD", "CUSTOMER_ID");

// create request object
$collmexRequest = new Request($collmexClient);

// create a record type; we're querying the API for customer with ID=12345
$getCustomerType = new CustomerGet(array('customer_id' => '12345'));

// send HTTP request and get response object
$collmexResponse = $collmexRequest->send($getCustomerType->getCsv());

if ($collmexResponse->isError()) {
    echo "Collmex error: " . $collmexResponse->getErrorMessage() . "; Code=" . $collmexResponse->getErrorCode() . PHP_EOL;
} else {
    $records = $collmexResponse->getRecords();

    foreach ($records as $record) {
        var_dump($record->getData()); // contains one Customer object and the Message object(s)
    }
}

Create a new Collmex customer record

Create a new Collmex Customer record and get the Collmex Customer-ID from the response data:

<?php

use \MarcusJaschen\Collmex\Client\Curl as CurlClient;
use \MarcusJaschen\Collmex\Request;
use \MarcusJaschen\Collmex\Type\Customer;

// initialize HTTP client
$collmexClient = new CurlClient("USER", "PASSWORD", "CUSTOMER_ID");

// create request object
$collmexRequest = new Request($collmexClient);

// create a record type; we create a customer with some basic fields
$customer = new Customer(
    array(
        'client_id'                      => "2",
        'salutation'                     => "Herr",
        'forename'                       => "Charly",
        'lastname'                       => "Cash",
        'street'                         => "Hauptstraße 12",
        'zipcode'                        => "12222",
        'city'                           => "Berlin",
        'inactive'                       => Customer::STATUS_ACTIVE,
        'country'                        => "DE",
        'phone'                          => "+49300000000",
        'email'                          => "[email protected]",
        'output_medium'                  => Customer::OUTPUT_MEDIUM_EMAIL,
    )
);

// send HTTP request and get response object
$collmexResponse = $collmexRequest->send($customer->getCsv());

if ($collmexResponse->isError()) {
    echo "Collmex error: " . $collmexResponse->getErrorMessage() . "; Code=" . $collmexResponse->getErrorCode() . PHP_EOL;
} else {
    $newObject = $collmexResponse->getFirstRecord();
    echo "New Collmex customer ID=" . $newObject->new_id . PHP_EOL;

    $records = $collmexResponse->getRecords();

    foreach ($records as $record) {
        var_dump($record->getData()); // contains one NewObject object and the Message object(s)
    }
}

Notes

Collmex expects all strings encoded in Codepage 1252 (Windows) while the Collmex PHP SDK expects all inputs as UTF-8 and outputs everything as UTF-8. The conversion of string encodings is done transparently before sending an request to the Collmex API and after receiving the response from the API.
