README

This PHP project demonstrates how to use the xero-php-oauth2 SDK. Use composer or clone this repository to your local machine to begin.

You'll be able to connect to a Xero Organisation, make real API calls. The code used to make each API call will be displayed along with the results returned from Xero's API.

Getting Started

To run locally, you'll need a local web server with PHP support.

• MAMP is a good option Download MAMP

Download Manually

• Clone this repo into your local server webroot.
• Launch a terminal app and change to the newly cloned folder xero-php-oauth2-app
• Download dependencies with Composer using the following command

composer install

Create a Xero App

To obtain your API keys, follow these steps and create a Xero app

• Create a free Xero user account (if you don't have one)
• Login to Xero developer center
• Click "New App" link
• Enter your App name, company url, privacy policy url.
• Enter the redirect URI (your callback url - i.e. http://localhost:8888/xero-php-oauth2-app/callback.php)
• Agree to terms and condition and click "Create App".
• Click "Generate a secret" button.
• Copy your client id and client secret and save for use later.
• Click the "Save" button. You secret is now hidden.

Configure your .env file

You'll need to setup your .env file

Rename the file sample.env to .env and copy and paste your clientId, clientSecret and redirectUri These .env variables will be read by authorization.php, callback.php, get.php.

Sample.env file

CLIENT_ID = "YOUR-CLIENT-ID"
CLIENT_SECRET = "YOUR-CLIENT-SECRET"
REDIRECT_URI = "http://localhost:8888/xero-php-oauth2-app/callback.php"

Sample PHP code from authorization.php

// This library will read variable from the .env file.
$dotenv = Dotenv\Dotenv::createImmutable(__DIR__);
$dotenv->load();
$clientId = getenv('CLIENT_ID');
$clientSecret = getenv('CLIENT_SECRET');
$redirectUri = getenv('REDIRECT_URI');

$provider = new \League\OAuth2\Client\Provider\GenericProvider([
	'clientId'                => $clientId,   
	'clientSecret'            => $clientSecret,
	'redirectUri'             => $redirectUri,
	'urlAuthorize'            => 'https://login.xero.com/identity/connect/authorize',
	'urlAccessToken'          => 'https://identity.xero.com/connect/token',
	'urlResourceOwnerDetails' => 'https://api.xero.com/api.xro/2.0/Organisation'
]);

docker-compose

• Have Docker & Docker Compose installed - https://docs.docker.com/compose/install/

Run docker-compose up in the root directory of this repository to launch a local server. The server will be published to port 8080 by default:

http://localhost:8080/

The redirect URL will be http://localhost:8080/callback.php, which must be set in the configuration of this demo application and within your Xero app.

The local port can be changed through the APP_HTTP_PORT variable in the environment or set in .env. You may want to do this if port 8080 is already in use.
