Guzzle Documentation

Guzzle is a PHP HTTP client that makes it easy to send HTTP requests and trivial to integrate with web services.

  • Simple interface for building query strings, POST requests, streaming large uploads, streaming large downloads, using HTTP cookies, uploading JSON data, etc…
  • Can send both synchronous and asynchronous requests using the same interface.
  • Uses PSR-7 interfaces for requests, responses, and streams. This allows you to utilize other PSR-7 compatible libraries with Guzzle.
  • Abstracts away the underlying HTTP transport, allowing you to write environment and transport agnostic code; i.e., no hard dependency on cURL, PHP streams, sockets, or non-blocking event loops.
  • Middleware system allows you to augment and compose client behavior.
  1. $client = new GuzzleHttp\Client();
  2. $res = $client->request('GET', 'https://api.github.com/user', [
  3.     'auth' => ['user', 'pass']
  4. ]);
  5. echo $res->getStatusCode();
  6. // "200"
  7. echo $res->getHeader('content-type')[0];
  8. // 'application/json; charset=utf8'
  9. echo $res->getBody();
  10. // {"type":"User"...'
  12. // Send an asynchronous request.
  13. $request = new \GuzzleHttp\Psr7\Request('GET', 'http://httpbin.org');
  14. $promise = $client->sendAsync($request)->then(function ($response) {
  15.     echo 'I completed! ' . $response->getBody();
  16. });
  17. $promise->wait();
