How do you use Guzzle in PHP?
The basic steps for making HTTP requests in PHP using Guzzle are as follows:
- To install the Guzzle library, you can use Composer. Simply execute the following command in the command line:
composer require guzzlehttp/guzzle
- Introducing the Guzzle library:
use GuzzleHttp\Client;
- Create an instance of the Guzzle client.
$client = new Client();
- Send a GET request:
$response = $client->request('GET', 'https://api.example.com');
- Send a POST request:
$response = $client->request('POST', 'https://api.example.com', [
'form_params' => [
'key1' => 'value1',
'key2' => 'value2'
]
]);
- Handling responses:
$body = $response->getBody();
echo $body;
