php-salesforce-wrapper

Using Pest for REST

Pest is a PHP client library for RESTful web services. I found it to be a minimal and effective back-bone for this project. The Pest dependency is handled by composer.

Thanks @Educoder!

Composer Install

composer require matthewpoer/php-salesforce-wrapper:dev-master

Get Started

Authentication

Authentication with Salesforce occurs upon instantiation of the wrapper.

try {
  $sfdc = new php_sfdc_wrapper(
    SFDC_BASE_URL,
    SFDC_CLIENT_ID,
    SFDC_CLIENT_SECRET,
    SFDC_USERNAME,
    SFDC_PASSWORD,
    SFDC_SECURITY_TOKEN
  );
} catch (\Exception $e) {
  $log->critical('Error authenticating with Salesforce. Exception occurred.', array(
    'Exception' => $e->getMessage()
  ));
  die('Error authenticating with Salesforce. Exception occurred.' . PHP_EOL);
}

Create an Account

try {
  $account_id = $sfdc->create('Account', array(
    'BillingCity' => 'San Francisco',
    'BillingCountry' => 'United States',
    'BillingPostalCode' => '94105',
    'BillingState' => 'California',
    'BillingStreet' => 'The Landmark @ One Market Suite 300',
    'Name' => 'Salesforce.com',
  ));
} catch (\Exception $e) {
  $message = $e->getMessage();
  $log->critical($message);
  die('Error creating Salesforce Account. Exception occurred.' . PHP_EOL);
}

Delete an Account

try {
  $account_id = $sfdc->delete('Account', $account_id);
} catch (\Exception $e) {
  $message = $e->getMessage();
  $log->critical($message);
  die('Error deleting Salesforce Account. Exception occurred.' . PHP_EOL);
}

Find an Account by Name

The query method accepts as parameters,

1. an s0bject name
2. an array of fields desired in the result, defaulting to just the Id and Name fields
3. an string to use as the SOQL query's WHERE clause
4. a boolean on whether or not a result should be required (default TRUE). If this is TRUE then the wrapper will throw an exception when no records are found matching the conditions in the WHERE clause.

try {
  $accounts = $sfdc->query(
    'Account',
    array('Id','Name'),
    "name='Salesforce.com'",
    FALSE
  );
  foreach($accounts as $account) {
    echo "Found account with ID of " . $account['Id'] . PHP_EOL;
  }
} catch (\Exception $e) {
  $message = $e->getMessage();
  $log->critical($message);
  die('Error querying for the Salesforce Account. Exception occurred.' . PHP_EOL);
}
