Binpress API PHP Wrapper

The Binpress API provides access to Binpress components data. This data can be used to create interesting applications and plug-ins, such as:

• Wordpress component widget plug-in (the API has more control over the data than the embeddable widget)
• Integration of component data in blog posts
• Binpress component store front for various platforms (such as Drupal, Magento, etc)

Requirements

• PHP 5+

Place the contents of the /library folder where you keep your library files. It includes the Zend_Json classes to allow JSON object decoding/encoding when using PHP version below 5.2 (which introduced the json_encode() / json_decode() functions).

If you already use the Zend Framework, you can remove the /Zend folder and just put BinpressAPI.php class in your library folder.

Usage is simple and every use-case is shown in the examples. Include the class, instance a BinpressAPI object and call the API method you want to use.

Example fetching component listing:

<?php
require_once('/library/BinpressAPI.php');

$api = new BinpressAPI();
$components = $api -> getList(array(
    'language' => 'php',
    'limit' => 5,
    'page' => 2
));

For authenticated requests (publisher data), you need to put your API secret and key in the appropriately named class members $_secret and $_key. You can find API access credentials in your publisher account.
