(back to top)

4. Usage

4.1. Steps before running

1. Make sure you do a composer install or composer update to download all vendor packages.
2. Also, make sure the client_secret.json file is placed in the root of this folder (See below). There is a .gitignore on the file client_secret.json, so you don't commit it to a repo by accident.
3. You can run this with a simple PHP built-in webserver or any other.

php -S localhost:8000

4.2. Google My Business

Is one of the only client-libraries that is NOT part of the standard google/apiclient-services, so I've included the "bronhy/google-my-business-php-client" repo to automatically install it.

4.3. OAUTH Keys

Head over the the google console https://console.cloud.google.com/ and create a project with the following APIs:

• Google My Business

The google my business API is a private one and you need to request access from google for it.

Next:

• Create an OAUTH 2.0 client ID.
• In the Authorised redirect URIs include:
  • http://localhost:8000
  • http://localhost:8000/index.php
• Download the JSON file and save it as client_secret.json and place it into the root of this folder.

4.4. The Examples

All examples are in the examples folder. They are all self-contained, so each file should contain everything it needs. Pull out the one you want and place it into the root folder and rename it asindex.php. Run your webserver and view!
