Appwrite PHP SDK

This SDK targets Appwrite server version 1.9.x as shipped on Appwrite Cloud. Self-hosted releases can lag behind Cloud — if you run an older self-hosted build, use a matching older SDK from previous releases when APIs differ.

Appwrite is an open-source backend as a service server that abstracts and simplifies complex and repetitive development tasks behind a very simple to use REST API. Appwrite aims to help you develop your apps faster and in a more secure way. Use the PHP SDK to integrate your app with the Appwrite server to easily start interacting with all of Appwrite backend APIs and tools.

Installation

To install via Composer:

composer require appwrite/appwrite

Requires PHP 8.5 or later.

Getting Started

Init your SDK

Initialize your SDK with your Appwrite server API endpoint and project ID which can be found in your project settings page and your new API secret Key from project's API keys section.

$client = new Client();

$client
    ->setEndpoint('https://[HOSTNAME_OR_IP]/v1') // Your API Endpoint
    ->setProject('5df5acd0d48c2') // Your project ID
    ->setKey('919c2d18fb5d4...a2ae413da83346ad2') // Your secret API key
    ->setSelfSigned() // Use only on dev mode with a self-signed SSL cert
;

Make Your First Request

Once your SDK object is set, create any of the Appwrite service objects and choose any request to send. Full documentation for any service method you would like to use can be found in your SDK documentation or in the API References section.

$users = new Users($client);

$user = $users->create(ID::unique(), "email@example.com", "+123456789", "password", "Walter O'Brien");

Full Example

use Appwrite\Client;
use Appwrite\ID;
use Appwrite\Services\Users;

$client = new Client();

$client
    ->setEndpoint('https://[HOSTNAME_OR_IP]/v1') // Your API Endpoint
    ->setProject('5df5acd0d48c2') // Your project ID
    ->setKey('919c2d18fb5d4...a2ae413da83346ad2') // Your secret API key
    ->setSelfSigned() // Use only on dev mode with a self-signed SSL cert
;

$users = new Users($client);

$user = $users->create(ID::unique(), "email@example.com", "+123456789", "password", "Walter O'Brien");

Error Handling

The Appwrite PHP SDK raises AppwriteException object with message, code and response properties. You can handle any errors by catching AppwriteException and present the message to the user or handle it yourself based on the provided error information. Below is an example.

$users = new Users($client);
try {
    $user = $users->create(ID::unique(), "email@example.com", "+123456789", "password", "Walter O'Brien");
} catch(AppwriteException $error) {
    echo $error->message;
}
