PHP GitHub API
A simple Object Oriented wrapper for GitHub API, written with PHP.
Uses GitHub API v3 & supports GitHub API v4. The object API (v3) is very similar to the RESTful API.
Features
- Light and fast thanks to lazy loading of API classes
- Extensively tested and documented
Requirements
- PHP >= 7.1
- A PSR-17 implementation
- A PSR-18 implementation
Install
Via Composer.
PHP 7.1+:
composer require knplabs/github-api:^3.0 php-http/guzzle6-adapter:^2.0.1 http-interop/http-factory-guzzle:^1.0
PHP 7.2+:
composer require knplabs/github-api:^3.0 guzzlehttp/guzzle:^7.0.1 http-interop/http-factory-guzzle:^1.0
Laravel 6+:
composer require graham-campbell/github:^10.0 guzzlehttp/guzzle:^7.0.1 http-interop/http-factory-guzzle:^1.0
We are decoupled from any HTTP messaging client with help by HTTPlug. Read about clients in our docs. graham-campbell/github is by Graham Campbell.

client
Basic usage of <?php
// This file is generated by Composer
require_once __DIR__ . '/vendor/autoload.php';
$client = new \Github\Client();
$repositories = $client->api('user')->repositories('ornicar');
From $client
object, you can access to all GitHub.
Cache usage
This example uses the PSR6 cache pool redis-adapter. See http://www.php-cache.com/ for alternatives.
<?php
// This file is generated by Composer
require_once __DIR__ . '/vendor/autoload.php';
use Cache\Adapter\Redis\RedisCachePool;
$client = new \Redis();
$client->connect('127.0.0.1', 6379);
// Create a PSR6 cache pool
$pool = new RedisCachePool($client);
$client = new \Github\Client();
$client->addCache($pool);
// Do some request
// Stop using cache
$client->removeCache();
Using cache, the client will get cached responses if resources haven't changed since last time, without reaching the X-Rate-Limit
imposed by github.
