Bittarman / php-opencloud

php-opencloud is a library for developers using PHP to work with OpenStack clouds. Since the library was developed at Rackspace, it works with the Rackspace public and private cloud, and should also work with other OpenStack-based clouds with minimal effort.

php-opencloud

PHP SDK for OpenStack/Rackspace APIs

For SDKs in different languages, see http://developer.rackspace.com.

The PHP SDK should work with most OpenStack-based cloud deployments, though it specifically targets the Rackspace public cloud. In general, whenever a Rackspace deployment is substantially different than a pure OpenStack one, a separate Rackspace subclass is provided so that you can still use the SDK with a pure OpenStack instance (for example, see the OpenStack class (for OpenStack) and the Rackspace subclass).

Requirements

• PHP >=5.3.3
• cURL extension for PHP

Installation

You must install this library through Composer:

# Install Composer
curl -sS https://getcomposer.org/installer | php

# Require php-opencloud as a dependency
php composer.phar require rackspace/php-opencloud:dev-master

Once you have installed the library, you will need to load Composer's autoloader (which registers all the required namespaces):

require 'vendor/autoload.php';

And you're ready to go!

You can also check out the Getting Started guide for a quick tutorial.

Alternatively, if you would like to fork or clone the repository into a directory (to work and submit pull requests), you will need to execute:

php composer.phar install

Instead of the require command. You can also specify the --no-dev option if you do not want to install phpDocumentor (which has lots of vendor folders).
