[![Build Status](https://secure.travis-ci.org/twilio/twilio-php.png?branch=master)](http://travis-ci.org/twilio/twilio-php)
## Installation
You can install **twilio-php** via PEAR or by downloading the source.
#### Via PEAR (>= 1.9.3):
PEAR is a package manager for PHP. Open a command line and use these PEAR
commands to download the helper library:
$ pear channel-discover twilio-pear.herokuapp.com/pear
$ pear install twilio/Services_Twilio
If you get the following message:
$ -bash: pear: command not found
you can install PEAR from their website, or download the source directly.
#### Via Composer:
**twilio-php** is available on Packagist as the
[`twilio/sdk`](http://packagist.org/packages/twilio/sdk) package.
#### Via ZIP file:
[Click here to download the source
(.zip)](https://github.com/twilio/twilio-php/zipball/master) which includes all
dependencies.
Once you download the library, move the twilio-php folder to your project
directory and then include the library file:
require '/path/to/twilio-php/Services/Twilio.php';
and you're good to go!
## A Brief Introduction
With the twilio-php library, we've simplified interaction with the
Twilio REST API. No need to manually create URLS or parse XML/JSON.
You now interact with resources directly. Follow the [Quickstart
Guide](http://readthedocs.org/docs/twilio-php/en/latest/#quickstart)
to get up and running right now. The [User
Guide](http://readthedocs.org/docs/twilio-php/en/latest/#user-guide) shows you
how to get the most out of **twilio-php**.
## Quickstart
### Send an SMS
```php
<?php
// Install the library via PEAR or download the .zip file to your project folder.
// This line loads the library
require('/path/to/twilio-php/Services/Twilio.php');
$sid = "ACXXXXXX"; // Your Account SID from www.twilio.com/user/account
$token = "YYYYYY"; // Your Auth Token from www.twilio.com/user/account
$client = new Services_Twilio($sid, $token);
$message = $client->account->messages->sendMessage(
'9991231234', // From a valid Twilio number
'8881231234', // Text this number
"Hello monkey!"
);
print $message->sid;
```
### Make a Call
```php
<?php
// Install the library via PEAR or download the .zip file to your project folder.
// This line loads the library
require('/path/to/twilio-php/Services/Twilio.php');
$sid = "ACXXXXXX"; // Your Account SID from www.twilio.com/user/account
$token = "YYYYYY"; // Your Auth Token from www.twilio.com/user/account
$client = new Services_Twilio($sid, $token);
$call = $client->account->calls->create(
'9991231234', // From a valid Twilio number
'8881231234', // Call this number
// Read TwiML at this URL when a call connects (hold music)
'http://twimlets.com/holdmusic?Bucket=com.twilio.music.ambient'
);
```
### Generating TwiML
To control phone calls, your application needs to output
[TwiML](http://www.twilio.com/docs/api/twiml/ "Twilio Markup Language"). Use
`Services_Twilio_Twiml` to easily create such responses.
```php
<?php
require('/path/to/twilio-php/Services/Twilio.php');
$response = new Services_Twilio_Twiml();
$response->say('Hello');
$response->play('https://api.twilio.com/cowbell.mp3', array("loop" => 5));
print $response;
```
That will output XML that looks like this:
```xml
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<Response>
<Say>Hello</Say>
<Play loop="5">https://api.twilio.com/cowbell.mp3</Play>
<Response>
```
