API_INTERACTION with PHP App

A Php crud app to interact with APIx (an app built using Django)

This repository contains a PHP application that interacts with an external API. It allows you to interact with the DJANGO api fron the APIx Repo.

Getting Started

These instructions will help you set up and run the PHP application on your local machine.

Prerequisites

To run this PHP app, you need:

• PHP (version 7.0 or higher)
• XAMPP webserver or PHPSTORM by IntelliJIDEA

Installation

1. Clone this repository to your local machine:

   git clone https://github.com/Adjanour/API_INTERACTION.git

2. Open the Cloned Repository

   cd API_INTEGRATION

Configuration

Open the config.php file and provide the necessary configuration details:

Example configuration

$api_url = "https://api.example.com/";
$api_key = "your-api-key";

Usage

Sending GET Requests

To retrieve data from the API, you can use the sendGetRequest function. It simplifies the process of making GET requests and decoding JSON responses.

// Example usage:
$api_url = "http://127.0.0.1:8000/employees";
$data = getRequest($api_url);

Sending POST Requests

To retrieve data from the API, you can use the sendPostRequest function. It simplifies the process of making POST requests and decoding JSON responses.

// Example API endpoint URL
$api_url = "http://example.com/api/resource";

// Example JSON data to be sent in the request
$json_data = '{"key": "value", "name": "John Doe"}';

// Send a POST request and handle the response
$response = sendPostRequest($api_url, $json_data);
