Description

This is Google's officially supported PHP client library for using OAuth 2.0 authorization and authentication with Google APIs.

Alpha

This library is in Alpha. We will make an effort to support the library, but we reserve the right to make incompatible changes when necessary.

Installing via Composer

The recommended way to install the google auth library is through Composer.

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

Next, run the Composer command to install the latest stable version:

composer.phar require google/auth:dev-master

As this project is in alpha, there is currently no "stable" composer version, so specifying dev-master is required.

Application Default Credentials

This library provides an implementation of application default credentials for PHP.

The Application Default Credentials provide a simple way to get authorization credentials for use in calling Google APIs.

They are best suited for cases when the call needs to have the same identity and authorization level for the application independent of the user. This is the recommended approach to authorize calls to Cloud APIs, particularly when you're building an application that uses Google Compute Engine.

Download your Service Account Credentials JSON file

To use Application Default Credentials, You first need to download a set of JSON credentials for your project. Go to APIs & Auth > Credentials in the [Google Developers Console](developer console) and select Service account from the Add credentials dropdown.

This file is your only copy of these credentials. It should never be committed with your source code, and should be stored securely.

Once downloaded, store the path to this file in the GOOGLE_APPLICATION_CREDENTIALS environment variable.

putenv('GOOGLE_APPLICATION_CREDENTIALS=/path/to/my/credentials.json');

PHP's putenv function is just one way to set an environment variable. Consider using .htaccess or apache configuration files as well.

Enable the API you want to use

Before making your API call, you must be sure the API you're calling has been enabled. Go to APIs & Auth > APIs in the [Google Developers Console](developer console) and enable the APIs you'd like to call. For the example below, you must enable the Drive API.

Call the APIs

As long as you update the environment variable below to point to your JSON credentials file, the following code should output a list of your Drive files.

use GuzzleHttp\Client;
use Google\Auth\ApplicationDefaultCredentials;

// specify the path to your application credentials
putenv('GOOGLE_APPLICATION_CREDENTIALS=/path/to/my/credentials.json');

// define the scopes for your API call
$scopes = ['https://www.googleapis.com/auth/drive.readonly'];

// create the HTTP client
$client = new Client([
  'base_url' => 'https://www.googleapis.com',
  'defaults' => ['auth' => 'google_auth']  // authorize all requests
]);

// attach this library's auth listener
$fetcher = ApplicationDefaultCredentials::getFetcher($scopes);
$client->getEmitter()->attach($fetcher);

// make the request
$response = $client->get('drive/v2/files');

// show the result!
print_r($response->json());

What about auth in google-apis-php-client?

The goal is for auth done by google-apis-php-client to be be performed by this library.

Eventually, google-apis-php-client should have a dependency on this library. At the moment, there is no ETA for this, a key prequisite being for google-apis-php-client itself take a dependency on Guzzle so that it can use the Guzzle subscribers that this package provides. That's currently being discussed. This package's availability should make that transition simpler as there is one less thing that need to be handled.
