This is the official PHP SDK for the CloudConvert API v2.
To install the PHP SDK you will need to be using Composer in your project.
Install the SDK alongside Guzzle 7:
composer require cloudconvert/cloudconvert-php php-http/guzzle7-adapter
This package is not tied to any specific HTTP client. Instead, it uses Httplug to let users choose whichever HTTP client they want to use.
If you want to use Guzzle 6 instead, use:
composer require cloudconvert/cloudconvert-php php-http/guzzle6-adapter
use \CloudConvert\CloudConvert;
use \CloudConvert\Models\Job;
use \CloudConvert\Models\Task;
$cloudconvert = new CloudConvert([
'api_key' => 'API_KEY',
'sandbox' => false
]);
$job = (new Job())
->setTag('myjob-1')
->addTask(
(new Task('import/url', 'import-my-file'))
->set('url','https://my-url')
)
->addTask(
(new Task('convert', 'convert-my-file'))
->set('input', 'import-my-file')
->set('output_format', 'pdf')
->set('some_other_option', 'value')
)
->addTask(
(new Task('export/url', 'export-my-file'))
->set('input', 'convert-my-file')
);
$cloudconvert->jobs()->create($job)
You can use the CloudConvert Job Builder to see the available options for the various task types.
Uploads to CloudConvert are done via import/upload
tasks (see the docs). This SDK offers a convenient upload method:
use \CloudConvert\Models\Job;
use \CloudConvert\Models\Task;
$job = (new Job())
->addTask(new Task('import/upload','upload-my-file'))
->addTask(
(new Task('convert', 'convert-my-file'))
->set('input', 'upload-my-file')
->set('output_format', 'pdf')
)
->addTask(
(new Task('export/url', 'export-my-file'))
->set('input', 'convert-my-file')
);
$cloudconvert->jobs()->create($job);
$uploadTask = $job->getTasks()->whereName('upload-my-file')[0];
$cloudconvert->tasks()->upload($uploadTask, fopen('./file.pdf', 'r'), 'file.pdf');
The upload()
method accepts a string, PHP resource or PSR-7 StreamInterface
as second parameter.
You can also directly allow clients to upload files to CloudConvert:
<form action="<?=$uploadTask->getResult()->form->url?>"
method="POST"
enctype="multipart/form-data">
<? foreach ((array)$uploadTask->getResult()->form->parameters as $parameter => $value) { ?>
<input type="hidden" name="<?=$parameter?>" value="<?=$value?>">
<? } ?>
<input type="file" name="file">
<input type="submit">
</form>
CloudConvert can generate public URLs for using export/url
tasks. You can use the PHP SDK to download the output files when the Job is finished.
$cloudconvert->jobs()->wait($job); // Wait for job completion
foreach ($job->getExportUrls() as $file) {
$source = $cloudconvert->getHttpTransport()->download($file->url)->detach();
$dest = fopen('output/' . $file->filename, 'w');
stream_copy_to_stream($source, $dest);
}
The download()
method returns a PSR-7 StreamInterface
, which can be used as a PHP resource using detach()
.
Webhooks can be created on the CloudConvert Dashboard and you can also find the required signing secret there.
$cloudconvert = new CloudConvert([
'api_key' => 'API_KEY',
'sandbox' => false
]);
$signingSecret = '...'; // You can find it in your webhook settings
$payload = @file_get_contents('php://input');
$signature = $_SERVER['HTTP_CLOUDCONVERT_SIGNATURE'];
try {
$webhookEvent = $cloudconvert->webhookHandler()->constructEvent($payload, $signature, $signingSecret);
} catch(\CloudConvert\Exceptions\UnexpectedDataException $e) {
// Invalid payload
http_response_code(400);
exit();
} catch(\CloudConvert\Exceptions\SignatureVerificationException $e) {
// Invalid signature
http_response_code(400);
exit();
}
$job = $webhookEvent->getJob();
$job->getTag(); // can be used to store an ID
$exportTask = $job->getTasks()
->whereStatus(Task::STATUS_FINISHED) // get the task with 'finished' status ...
->whereName('export-it')[0]; // ... and with the name 'export-it'
// ...
Alternatively, you can construct a WebhookEvent
using a PSR-7 RequestInterface
:
$webhookEvent = $cloudconvert->webhookHandler()->constructEventFromRequest($request, $signingSecret);
Signed URLs allow converting files on demand only using URL query parameters. The PHP SDK allows to generate such URLs. Therefore, you need to obtain a signed URL base and a signing secret on the CloudConvert Dashboard.
$cloudconvert = new CloudConvert([
'api_key' => 'API_KEY',
'sandbox' => false
]);
$job = (new Job())
->addTask(
(new Task('import/url', 'import-my-file'))
->set('url', 'https://my.url/file.docx')
)
->addTask(
(new Task('convert', 'convert-my-file'))
->set('input', 'import-my-file')
->set('output_format', 'pdf')
)
->addTask(
(new Task('export/url', 'export-my-file'))
->set('input', 'convert-my-file')
);
$signedUrlBase = 'SIGNED_URL_BASE';
$signingSecret = 'SIGNED_URL_SIGNING_SECRET';
$url = $cloudConvert->signedUrlBuilder()->createFromJob($signedUrlBase, $signingSecret, $job, 'CACHE_KEY');
vendor/bin/phpunit --testsuite unit
vendor/bin/phpunit --testsuite integration
By default, this runs the integration tests against the Sandbox API with an official CloudConvert account. If you would like to use your own account, you can set your API key using the CLOUDCONVERT_API_KEY
enviroment variable. In this case you need to whitelist the following MD5 hashes for Sandbox API (using the CloudConvert dashboard).
