    }

Usage

Walmart API key

In order to use the Walmart Open API you need to obtain an API key. You can get it by registering a Walmart developer account.

Basic usage

// composer autoload
require 'vendor/autoload.php';

//API credentials
$apiKey = 'yourWalmartApiKey';

//Basic components used by the Services
$httpClient        = new \GuzzleHttp\Client();
$errorHandler      = new \WalmartApiClient\Exception\Handler\ApiExceptionHandler();
$transportService  = new \WalmartApiClient\Http\TransportService($httpClient, $errorHandler, $apiUrl);
$entityFactory     = new \WalmartApiClient\Factory\EntityFactory();
$collectionFactory = new \WalmartApiClient\Factory\CollectionFactory();

//Actual Services you will use for interacting with the API
$productService  = new \WalmartApiClient\Service\ProductService($transportService, $entityFactory, $collectionFactory);
$offerService    = new \WalmartApiClient\Service\OfferService($transportService, $entityFactory, $collectionFactory);
$reviewService   = new \WalmartApiClient\Service\ReviewService($transportService, $entityFactory, $collectionFactory);
$taxonomyService = new \WalmartApiClient\Service\TaxonomyService($transportService, $entityFactory, $collectionFactory);

LinkShare Publisher Id

It is possible to provide your LinkShare Publisher Id for URL tracking/attribution purposes. It is optional and you can read more about this subject on Walmart Affiliates website. To use your LinkShare Publisher Id with this library, just pass it to TransportService constructor in the process of creating the basic components, like shown below:

$apiKey = 'yourWalmartApiKey';
$linkSharePublisherId = 'yourId';

$httpClient        = new \GuzzleHttp\Client();
$errorHandler      = new \WalmartApiClient\Exception\Handler\ApiExceptionHandler();
$transportService  = new \WalmartApiClient\Http\TransportService($httpClient, $errorHandler, $apiUrl, $linkSharePublisherId);

Features

Each of the available Services is a wrapper for one or more Walmart Open API services. The available methods' declarations and descriptions can be found in the Service interfaces. Each of the methods returns either a single specific Entity (e.g. Product) or a Collection of Entities (e.g. Categories Collection).
