Subreg.cz API client for PHP

Package for simple and safe access to Subreg.cz API.

About Subreg API

• Subreg.cz API Documentation
• Subreg.cz API WDSL Specification

Installation

Install via Composer:

composer install redbitcz/subreg-api-php

It requires PHP version 7.3 and supports PHP up to 7.4.

Access level

You can use Package with two ways:

• raw access: just call raw command and get raw response – the Package only handle Request authentication, Connection or Server errors and check basic Envelope od Response data.
• context access: full service access which is allow traversing over data, checks Request and Response data by strict Schema, access to all properties via strict-typed Getters.

For more information see documentation bellow.

Authentication & Environment

Authentication

For authentication to API use Credentials class:

$credentials = new \Redbitcz\SubregApi\Credentials('microsoft', 'password');

If you are using Subreg administrator access to account, use '#' to join username and administrator name:

$credentials = new \Redbitcz\SubregApi\Credentials('gates#microsoft', 'password');

For more information about administrator access visit Subreg API Login documentation page.

Live / Test Environment

Package is process all requests to Production Environment.

If you need try your App to test Environment, you can change URL Endpoint:

$credentials = new \Redbitcz\SubregApi\Credentials('microsoft', 'password', 'https://ote-soap.subreg.cz/cmd.php');

Usage Raw access

Use Credentials object to create Client.

$client = new \Redbitcz\SubregApi\Client($credentials);

Client has only method: $client->call() to send authenticated request to Subreg.cz API.

$client->call('Check_Domain', ['domain' => 'subreg.cz'])->getData();

/*
    Returns the Array:

    [
      'name' => 'subreg.cz',
      'avail' => 0,
      'price' => 
      [
        'amount' => 165.0,
        'amount_with_trustee' => 165.0,
        'premium' => 0,
        'currency' => 'CZK',
      ],
    ]
*/

Errors

Client can failures on so many levels.

• Invalid request – when you trying submit invalid request, client throws InvalidRequestException,
• Connection problem – offline, invalid URL, server problem, etc., client throws ConnectionException,
• Server response error – API server is working, but can't finish your request, domain doesn't exists, etc., client throws ResponseErrorException,
• Another problem with response – response is missing required fiels, etc., client throws InvalidResponseException.

ResponseErrorException (and all descendants Exceptions) contains whole response, use:

$exception->getResponse();

Response

Response is being wrapped to Response envelope for better handling. Response always contains an array.

getData(): array

Returns all data from Response as received from API server.

getItem(string $name)

Returns one item from Response array. If item doesn't exists, returns null.

It allows only access to first-level of response array (no recursive access into deep structured data).

hasItem(string $name): bool

Returns true when item exists in Response, false otherwise.

getMandatoryItem(string $name)

Returns one item from Response array. If item doesn't exists, throws InvalidResponseException.

Factory shortcuts

Creating Client instance requires pre-create Credentials first.

$credentials = new \Redbitcz\SubregApi\Credentials('microsoft', 'password');
$client = new \Redbitcz\SubregApi\Client($credentials);

It's can be simplified by Factory helper:

$client = \Redbitcz\SubregApi\Factory::createClient('microsoft', 'password');

If you are using administrator access to account, use:

$client = \Redbitcz\SubregApi\Factory::createClientForAdministrator('microsoft', 'gates', 'password');

Example

$client = \Redbitcz\SubregApi\Factory::createClient('microsoft', 'password');

$response = $client->call('Info_Domain', ['domain' => 'subreg.cz']);

echo "Domain {$response->getItem('name')} is expiring at {$response->getItem('exDate')}.";
// Domain subreg.cz is expiring at 2023-04-22.

Usage Context access

At first create Context object instance. Use Factory helper for simple create it:

$context = \Redbitcz\SubregApi\Factory::createContext('microsoft', 'password');

With Context object you can access to API resources comfortably by fluent-like properties.

foreach ($context->domain()->list() as $domain) {
    echo "Domain {$domain->getName()} is expiring at {$domain->getExpire()->format('Y-m-d')}.\n";
}
// Domain my-first-domain.cz is expiring at 2023-04-22.
// Domain my-second-domain.cz is expiring at 2020-01-01.
// Domain my-third-domain.cz is expiring at 2021-08-30.
// Domain my-fourth-domain.cz is expiring at 2022-01-15.
// Domain my-fifth-domain.cz is expiring at 2020-05-13.
// Domain my-sixth-domain.cz is expiring at 2020-05-13.

NOTE: Context access is covering only few most-used of Subreg.cz API commands.

Work in progress

Package is still under development.

Future examples in vision

Bulk renew of expiring domains:

$expiringDomains = $context->domain()->list()->filter(['expire < ' => new DateTime('+ 1 month')]); 

foreach ($expiringDomains as $domain) {
    $order = $domain->renew(1); // 1 year
    echo "Domain {$domain->getName()} is renewed by order ID: {$order->getId()}.\n";
}
// Domain my-second-domain.cz is renewed by order ID: 12345000.
// Domain my-fifth-domain.cz is renewed by order ID: 12345001.
// Domain my-sixth-domain.cz is renewed by order ID: 12345002.

Remove deprecated SPF record from domains zones for 3th+ level domain:

foreach ($context->domain()->list() as $domain) {
    foreach ($domain->dns()->list()->filter(['!isType' => 'SPF', '@getFqn() ~ ' => '/\w+\.\w+\.\w+$/']) as $dnsRecord) {
        $dnsRecord->delete();
        echo "Removed SPF record for {$dnsRecord->getFqn()}.\n";
    }
}
// Removed SPF record for subdomain.my-first-domain.cz.
// Removed SPF record for cluster-1.region-eu.my-thitd-domain.cz.
