Hey Stefan,

Which apis are you looking to use from the contacts API?  The GData Contacts 
API isn't officially supported by this client library, but it is still possible.

Here's some sample code for getting a list of contacts:
require_once '../../src/apiClient.php';
session_start();

$client = new apiClient();
$client->setApplicationName('Google Contacts PHP Sample');
// Visit https://code.google.com/apis/console?api=contacts to generate your
// oauth2_client_id, oauth2_client_secret, and register your 
oauth2_redirect_uri.
// $client->setClientId('insert_your_oauth2_client_id');
// $client->setClientSecret('insert_your_oauth2_client_secret');
// $client->setRedirectUri('insert_your_redirect_uri');
// $client->setDeveloperKey('insert_your_developer_key');

if (isset($_GET['code'])) {
  $client->authenticate();
  $_SESSION['token'] = $client->getAccessToken();
  $redirect = 'http://' . $_SERVER['HTTP_HOST'] . $_SERVER['PHP_SELF'];
  header('Location: ' . filter_var($redirect, FILTER_SANITIZE_URL));
}

if (isset($_SESSION['token'])) {
 $client->setAccessToken($_SESSION['token']);
}

if (isset($_REQUEST['logout'])) {
  unset($_SESSION['token']);
  $client->revokeToken();
}

if ($client->getAccessToken()) {
  $client->setScopes("http://www.google.com/m8/feeds/");
  $req = new apiHttpRequest("https://www.google.com/m8/feeds/contacts/default/full");
  $val = $client->getIo()->authenticatedRequest($req);
  print "<pre>" . print_r($val, true) . "</pre>";

  // The access token may have been updated lazily.
  $_SESSION['token'] = $client->getAccessToken();
} else {
  $auth = $client->createAuthUrl();
}

if (isset($auth)) {
    print "<a class=login href='$auth'>Connect Me!</a>";
  } else {
    print "<a class=logout href='?logout'>Logout</a>";
}
?>

Thanks a lot,

but why has the contacts api only a secondary role? is the a product google 
wants to stop? it is part of the gmail client and i would think because of that 
the contacts api should have a higher priority.

thanks
stefan

Why is this contacts addition to the library "unsupported"? I have the example 
working, but I have no further details/instructions for getting the individual 
contacts and of ourse modifying existing and adding new ones. Thanks Chirags 
for adding this as a start though!

Same question.

Is anyone working on a contacts api wrapper for contacts?  I would be willing 
to invest some time in helping develop such a module.  I have looked over the 
PHP 'google-api-php-client' and it looks like one would add a file to the 
src/contrib/
folder for 
apiContacts.php

Has someone built the bones of such a file?  I would be happy to help get it 
complete.

thanks,

Scott.
