php-guzzleHow to make a GET request with a Guzzle client in PHP?

Making a GET request with a Guzzle client in PHP is easy. Here is an example code block:

$client = new GuzzleHttp\Client();
$res = $client->request('GET', 'https://api.github.com/user', [
    'auth' => ['user', 'pass']
]);
echo $res->getStatusCode();

The output of the example code is 200.

Code explanation

1. $client = new GuzzleHttp\Client(); - This creates a new Guzzle client.
2. $res = $client->request('GET', 'https://api.github.com/user', [ - This makes a GET request to the specified URL.
3. 'auth' => ['user', 'pass'] - This is an optional parameter that allows you to specify authentication credentials.
