php-guzzleHow to use PHP Guzzle to make an API request?

Guzzle is a PHP HTTP client that makes it easy to send HTTP requests and trivial to integrate with web services.

To make an API request with Guzzle, you need to create a client and then make a request.

Example code

$client = new GuzzleHttp\Client();
$res = $client->request('GET', 'https://api.example.com/endpoint');

Output example

GuzzleHttp\Psr7\Response {#200
  -reasonPhrase: "OK"
  -statusCode: 200
  -headers: array:7 [ …7]
  -headerLines: array:7 [ …7]
  -protocol: "1.1"
  -stream: GuzzleHttp\Psr7\Stream {#201 …}
}

Code explanation

• $client = new GuzzleHttp\Client(); creates a new Guzzle client.
• $res = $client->request('GET', 'https://api.example.com/endpoint'); makes a GET request to the specified endpoint.
