# Reflect API client for PHP

# Reflect API client for Python

Make requests to an API built using the [Reflect API](https://github.com/VictorWesterlund/reflect) framework over HTTP or UNIX sockets. This program comes with both an extendable/instantiable class that you can integrate with existing PHP code, or as a stand-alone CLI which can be run by itself or UNIX piped into other programs.

## How to use (CLI)
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
You can also run this from the command line with
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
```
|
|
||||||
php client <socket_file> <endpoint> <http_method> [payload]
|
|
||||||
```
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
and it will return a serialized JSON array with the same structure as described in the `Client->call()` return.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
*Example*
|
|
||||||
```sh
|
|
||||||
php client "/run/reflect.sock" "foo?bar=biz" "POST" "[\"foo\" => \"bar\"]" # (string) [201, \"Created\"]
|
|
||||||
```
