Laravel SDK for Airtable

A simple approach to interacting with Airtables.

Installation

You can install the package via composer:

composer require tapp/laravel-airtable

Publish the config file:

php artisan vendor:publish --provider="Tapp\Airtable\AirtableServiceProvider"

Define airtables account information in .env:

AIRTABLE_KEY=
AIRTABLE_BASE=
AIRTABLE_TABLE=
AIRTABLE_TYPECAST=false

AIRTABLE_KEY can be retrieved here: https://airtable.com/account
AIRTABLE_BASE can be found here: https://airtable.com/api, select base then copy from URL: https://airtable.com/[Base Is Here]/api/docs#curl/introduction
AIRTABLE_TABLE can be found in the docs for the appropriate base, this is not case senstive. IE: tasks
AIRTABLE_TYPECAST set this to true to allow automatic casting.

Example Config

If you need to support multiple tables, add them to the tables config in the config/airtable.php If your table is on a different base than the one set in the env, add that as well.

...
    'tables' => [

        'default' => [
            'name' => env('AIRTABLE_TABLE', 'Main'),
            'base' => 'base_id',
        ],

        'companies' => [
            'name' => env('AIRTABLE_COMPANY_TABLE', 'Companies'),
            'base' => 'base_id',
        ],
        ...
    ],
...

Usage

Import the facade in your class.

use Airtable;

Get records from that table

This will only return the first 100 records due to Airtable page size limiation

Airtable::table('tasks')->get();

Get all records from that table.

This will get all records by sending multiple requests until all record are fetched.
Optional Parameter which is the delay between requests in microseconds as API is limited to 5 requests per second per base, defaults to 0.2 second.

Airtable::table('tasks')->all();
Airtable::table('tasks')->all(500000); // 0.5 seconds

Get one record from the default table.

Airtable::find('id_string');

Filter records

First argument is the column name
Second argument is the operator or the value if you want to use equal '=' as an operator.
Third argument is the value of the filter

Airtable::where('id', '5')->get();
Airtable::where('id', '>', '5')->get();

Sorting records

First argument is the column name
Second argument is the sort direction: asc (default) or desc

Airtable::orderBy('id')->get();
Airtable::orderBy('created_at', 'desc')->get();

You can sort by multiple fields by calling orderBy more than once (a single call with array syntax is not supported):

Airtable::orderBy('id')->orderBy('created_at', 'desc')->get();

Create

Insert a record

Airtable::create(['name' => 'myName']);

First or Create

First argument will be used for finding existing
Second argument is additional data to save if no results are found and we are creating (will not be saved used if item already exists)

Airtable::firstOrCreate(['name' => 'myName'], ['field' => 'myField']);

Update or Create

First argument will be used to find existing
Second argument is additional data to save when we create or update

Airtable::updateOrCreate(['name' => 'myName'], ['field' => 'myField']);

Airtable::table('companies')->firstOrCreate(['Company Name' => $team->name]);

Update

First argument will be the id
Second argument is the whole record including the updated fields

Note: Update is destructive and clear all unspecified cell values if you did not provide a value for them. use PATCH up update specified fields

Airtable::table('companies')->update('rec5N7fr8GhDtdNxx', [ 'name' => 'Google', 'country' => 'US']);

Patch

First argument will be the id
Second argument is the field you would like to update

Airtable::table('companies')->patch('rec5N7fr8GhDtdNxx', ['country' => 'US']);

Mass Update or Patch

Array of data to be updated or patched

Airtable::table('companies')->patch([
    [
        'id' => 'rec5N7fr8GhDtdNxx',
        'fields' => ['country' => 'US']
    ],
    [
        'id' => 'rec8BhDt4fs2',
        'fields' => ['country' => 'UK']
    ],
    ...
]);
