PHP

About​

Our PHP SDK, is available at blockfrost-php.

Installation​

Composer​

This SDK uses guzzlehttp for REST. Composer is the preferred package manager to import this:

composer.json​

{
    "require" : {
        "guzzlehttp/guzzle" : "^7.0"
    },
    "autoload" : {
        "psr-4" : {
            "Blockfrost\\"        : "../blockfrost_api/"
        }
    },
    "minimum-stability" : "dev",
    "require-dev": {
        "phpunit/phpunit": "^9.5"
    }
}
$ php composer.phar update

Usage​

Using the SDK is pretty straight-forward as you can see from the following example.

Cardano​

<?php 

use Blockfrost\Block\BlockService;
use Blockfrost\Service;

require __DIR__.'/vendor/autoload.php';

$projectId = "MY_PROJECT_ID";

$blockService = new BlockService(Service::$NETWORK_CARDANO_MAINNET, $projectId);

try
{
    $res = $blockService->getLatestBlock();

    echo $res->hash;
}

catch(Exception $err)
{
    echo $err->getMessage();
}


?>
