# Installation

## Prerequisites

- PHP version 7.3+

## Install with Composer

Add php-http-client to your `composer.json` file. If you are not using [Composer](http://getcomposer.org), you should be. It's an excellent way to manage dependencies in your PHP application.

```json
{
  "require": {
    "sendgrid/php-http-client": "^4.1.3"
  }
}
```

Then at the top of your PHP script require the autoloader:

```php
require __DIR__ . '/vendor/autoload.php';
```

Then from the command line:

```bash
composer install
```

## Install without Composer

You should create a `lib` directory in the directory of your application and clone to `lib` repositories [php-http-client](https://github.com/sendgrid/php-http-client.git) and [sendgrid-php](https://github.com/sendgrid/sendgrid-php.git):

```
$ cd /path/to/your/app
$ mkdir lib
$ cd lib
$ git clone https://github.com/sendgrid/php-http-client.git
```

In the next step you should create `loader.php`:

```
$ cd /path/to/your/app
$ touch loader.php
```

And add the code below to the `loader.php`:

```php
<?php

require_once __DIR__ . '/lib/php-http-client/lib/Client.php';
require_once __DIR__ . '/lib/php-http-client/lib/Response.php';
```

After it you can use the `php-http-client` library in your project:

```php
<?php

include __DIR__ . '/loader.php';

$client = new SendGrid\Client();
```

<a name="quick-start"></a>
# Quick Start

Here is a quick example:

`GET /your/api/{param}/call`

var_dump(
    $response->statusCode(),
    $response->headers(),
    $response->body()
);
```

`POST /your/api/{param}/call` with headers, query parameters and a request body with versioning.

```php
// include __DIR__ . '/loader.php';
require 'vendor/autoload.php';
$apiKey = YOUR_SENDGRID_API_KEY;
$authHeaders = [
    'Authorization: Bearer ' . $apiKey
];
$client = new SendGrid\Client('https://api.sendgrid.com', $authHeaders);
$queryParams = [
    'hello' => 0, 'world' => 1
];
$requestHeaders = [
    'X-Test' => 'test'
];
$data = [
    'some' => 1, 'awesome' => 2, 'data' => 3
];
$param = 'bar';
$response = $client->your()->api()->_($param)->call()->post($data, $queryParams, $requestHeaders);

var_dump(
    $response->statusCode(),
    $response->headers(),
    $response->body()
);
```

If there is an issues with the request, such as misconfigured CURL SSL options, an `InvalidRequest` will be thrown
with message from CURL on why the request failed. Use the message as a hit to troubleshooting steps of your environment.
