API v2 client in PHP

Hi there, composer is a must have ;) If you follow the readme - it’s should be ok. Feel free to ask if you need more info for using the lib.

Good docs on this one!

Why so much negative comments for such an excellent work?

And look at the doc this author has posted in repository. Exceptional.

To lib author, Great job man. Really loved the library, I am using it for my personal project, saving me a lot of time.

For anyone else that doesn’t want a mountain where a molehill should be, here’s some very tiny examples of DO API V2. Not quite a library, but you don’t have to go through a bunch of contortions to get started on doing the basics.

Does this support Spaces?

This also looks promising, and is ‘loosely’ qualified to be called a library:

It’s unlikely that it has the full featureset of the library in this thread, but it doesn’t seem that it requires downloading half the universe.

This is me, saying no to bloatware. https://www.digitalocean.com/community/questions/create-a-droplet-via-php-using-api-2

@roblindman I agree with @toin0u these days composer is a must in the PHP world. I think all the other libraries require composer.

is there another library? I downloaded this, and it seemed to be annoying to set up, requiring composer and other dependencies. It should be a simple ‘require_once ‘digitalocean.php’’ and then be good to go. Instead I found myself entering a maze.

@roblindman I generally don’t get involved in such discussions, but I can’t help myself in this instance. Whilst your comments about “bloatware” may be quite valid from an objective point of view, the way you went about it quite frankly sucked. This is free work, and we should be grateful that someone is giving us something for FREE. If you don’t like it, just don’t use it, move along to a different library. No one is forcing you to do anything. And if you want to helpful, you can always leave a “polite” suggestion that the library could be more “efficient” in terms of resources/dependencies.

In any case, fyi, it took me literally 30 seconds to integrate this into my CodeIgniter application/framework. Why is a maze? Install the library with composer, requires just one command line, and then add the autoload in your php file. In my case, all I did was to instruct CI to enable composer autoload from the right path. And then I went to my controller and called the library to retrieve my DO account info. It was all over in literally 30 seconds, hassle free. So why all the fuss dude?

Be grateful, and compliment the author for a job well done and FREE of charge!
