## Requirements

- PHP 8.0 and later.
- [Guzzle](https://github.com/guzzle/guzzle) (included via Composer).

## Installation

Use Composer and add `taxjar-php` as a dependency:

```
composer require taxjar/taxjar-php
```

```json
{
  "require": {
    "taxjar/taxjar-php": "^2.0"
  }
}
```

If you get an error with `composer require`, update your `composer.json` directly and run `composer update`.

## Authentication

```php
require __DIR__ . '/vendor/autoload.php';
$client = TaxJar\Client::withApiKey($_ENV['TAXJAR_API_KEY']);
```

You're now ready to use TaxJar! [Check out our quickstart guide](https://developers.taxjar.com/api/guides/php/#php-quickstart) to get up and running quickly.

### List all tax categories _([API docs](https://developers.taxjar.com/api/reference/?php#get-list-tax-categories))_

> The TaxJar API provides product-level tax rules for a subset of product categories. These categories are to be used for products that are either exempt from sales tax in some jurisdictions or are taxed at reduced rates. You need not pass in a product tax code for sales tax calculations on product that is fully taxable. Simply leave that parameter out.

```php
$categories = $client->categories();
```

### Calculate sales tax for an order _([API docs](https://developers.taxjar.com/api/reference/?php#post-calculate-sales-tax-for-an-order))_

>
> **Please note this method only returns the full combined rate for a given location.** It does not support nexus determination, sourcing based on a ship from and ship to address, shipping taxability, product exemptions, customer exemptions, or sales tax holidays. We recommend using [`taxForOrder` to accurately calculate sales tax for an order](#calculate-sales-tax-for-an-order-api-docs).

```php

### Validate an address _([API docs](https://developers.taxjar.com/api/reference/?php#post-validate-an-address))_

> Validates an existing VAT identification number against [VIES](http://ec.europa.eu/taxation_customs/vies/).

```php
$validation = $client->validate([
  'vat' => 'FR40303265045'
]);
```

### Summarize tax rates for all regions _([API docs](https://developers.taxjar.com/api/reference/?php#get-summarize-tax-rates-for-all-regions))_

> Retrieve minimum and average sales tax rates by region as a backup.
>
> This method is useful for periodically pulling down rates to use if the TaxJar API is unavailable. However, it does not support nexus determination, sourcing based on a ship from and ship to address, shipping taxability, product exemptions, customer exemptions, or sales tax holidays. We recommend using [`taxForOrder` to accurately calculate sales tax for an order](#calculate-sales-tax-for-an-order-api-docs).

```php
$summarized_rates = $client->summaryRates();
```

## Sandbox Environment

You can easily configure the client to use the [TaxJar Sandbox](https://developers.taxjar.com/api/reference/?php#sandbox-environment):

```php
require __DIR__ . '/vendor/autoload.php';
$client = TaxJar\Client::withApiKey($_ENV['TAXJAR_SANDBOX_API_KEY']);
$client->setApiConfig('api_url', TaxJar\Client::SANDBOX_API_URL);
```

For testing specific [error response codes](https://developers.taxjar.com/api/reference/?php#errors), pass the custom `X-TJ-Expected-Response` header:

```php
$client->setApiConfig('headers', [
  'X-TJ-Expected-Response' => 422
]);
```

## Custom Options

### Timeout
> This package utilizes Guzzle which defaults to a request timeout value of 0s, allowing requests to remain pending for an indefinite period of time.
>
> You can modify this behavior by configuring the client with a `timeout` value in seconds.
```php
$client->setApiConfig('timeout', 30);
```

### API Version
> By default, TaxJar's API will respond to requests with the [latest API version](https://developers.taxjar.com/api/reference/#changelog) when a version header is not present on the request.
>
> To request a specific API version, include the `x-api-version` header with the desired version string.
```php
$client->setApiConfig('headers', [
  'x-api-version' => '2020-08-07'
]);
```

## Error Handling

When invalid data is sent to TaxJar or we encounter an error, we’ll throw a `TaxJar\Exception` with the HTTP status code and error message. To catch these exceptions, refer to the example below:

```php
require __DIR__ . '/vendor/autoload.php';
$client = TaxJar\Client::withApiKey($_ENV['TAXJAR_API_KEY']);

try {
  // Invalid request
  $order = $client->createOrder([
    'transaction_date' => '2015/05/14',
    'from_country' => 'US',
    'from_zip' => '07001',
    'from_state' => 'NJ',
    'from_city' => 'Avenel',
    'from_street' => '305 W Village Dr',
    'to_country' => 'US',
    'to_zip' => '90002',
    'to_state' => 'CA',
    'to_city' => 'Ramsey',
    'to_street' => '63 W Main St',
    'amount' => 16.5,
    'shipping' => 1.5,
    'sales_tax' => 0.95,
    'line_items' => [
      [
        'id' => '1',
        'quantity' => 1,
        'product_tax_code' => '31000',
        'unit_price' => 15,
        'discount' => 0,
        'sales_tax' => 0.95
      ]
    ]
  ]);
} catch (TaxJar\Exception $e) {
  // 406 Not Acceptable – transaction_id is missing
  echo $e->getMessage();

// 406
  echo $e->getStatusCode();
}
```

## Testing

Make sure PHPUnit is installed via `composer install` and run the following:

```
php vendor/bin/phpunit test/specs/.
```

To enable debug mode, set the following config parameter after authenticating:

```php
$client->setApiConfig('debug', true);
```
