Symfony Twilio Bundle (for Twilio SDK v6)

About

A quick and easy way to use the Twilio SDK (version 6) in a Symfony based application. Support for PHP 8+, Symfony >= 5.4. For full documentation about how to use the Twilio Client, see the official SDK provided by Twilio.

This bundle is a small wrapper around the official sdk. It just adds the basic auth and configs and avoid that you have to configure your service.yaml manual.

If you are already using the symfony/notifier component, habe a look at twilio-notifier.

Thank you for the awesome work of Fridolin Koch who created the first version of this bundle, with support for version 4 of the SDK.

Installation

composer req blackford/twilio-bundle

Configuration

Add these 2 parameters in .env.local and set it to your twilio credentials. Please see Env-Variables for more details.

TWILIO_USER='!changeMe!'
TWILIO_PASSWORD='!changeMe!'

Add a new file config/packages/twilio.yml and copy and adjust the following content:

blackford_twilio:

  # (Required) Username to authenticate with, typically your Account SID from www.twilio.com/user/account
  username: '%env(TWILIO_USER)%'

  # (Required) Password to authenticate with, typically your Auth Token from www.twilio.com/user/account
  password: '%env(TWILIO_PASSWORD)%'

  # (Optional) Account Sid to authenticate with, defaults to <username> (typically not required)
  # accountSid: 

  # (Optional) Region to send requests to, defaults to no region selection (typically not required)
  # region: 

Usage
