Yii2 client for XMLSoccer API

Full API Documentation here: http://xmlsoccer.wikia.com/wiki/API_Documentation

Requirements: ¶

PHP5 with CURL, SimpleXML extensions.

Installation ¶

The preferred way to install this extension is through composer.

Either run

composer require --prefer-dist drsdre/yii2-xmlsoccer "*"

or add

"drsdre/yii2-xmlsoccer": "*"

to the require section of your composer.json file.

Usage ¶

You need to setup the client as application component:

'components' => [
    'xmlsoccerApi' => [
        'class' => '\XMLSoccer\Client',
        'api_key' => 'xxx',
        'service_url' => 'http://www.xmlsoccer.com/FootballData.asmx',
    ]
    ...
]

or define the client directly in the code:

$client = new \XMLSoccer\Client([
    'api_key' => 'xxx',
    'service_url' => 'http://www.xmlsoccer.com/FootballData.asmx',
]);

By default client url is setup to demo API (http://www.xmlsoccer.com/FootballData.asmx). For demo access use http://www.xmlsoccer.com/FootballDataDemo.asmx as url.

How to use: ¶

Go to Getting_started and receive API key for access to XMLSoccer.com API.

Include the module, and call one of available methods.

Methods Available ¶

Go to http://www.xmlsoccer.com/FootballData.asmx for more info about methods and parameters.

Examples: ¶

List players for team with id 49 ¶

try {
	$client = new \XMLSoccer\Client([
        'api_key' => 'xxx',
    ]);
	$players=$soccer->GetPlayersByTeam(array("teamid"=>49));
	echo "Players List:<br>";
	foreach($players as $key=>$value){
		echo "<b>".$value->Name."</b> ".$value->Position."<br>";
	}
}
catch(Exception $e) {
	echo "XMLSoccer Exception: ".$e->getMessage();
}

If your server has multiple IP's available, you can set any IP for request: ¶

try {
	$client = new \XMLSoccer\Client([
        'api_key' => 'xxx',
    ]);
	$soccer->setRequestIp("ip_for_request");
	$result=$soccer->GetLeagueStandingsBySeason(array("league"=>3,"seasonDateString"=>"1314"));
	var_dump($result);
}
catch(XMLSoccerException $e) {
	echo "XMLSoccerException: ".$e->getMessage();
}

If you have a trial/free demo feed, use it like this: ¶

try{
	$client = new \XMLSoccer\Client([
        'api_key' => 'xxx',
        'service_url' => 'http://www.xmlsoccer.com/FootballDataDemo.asmx',
        'request_ip' => '
    ]);
	$fixtures=$soccer->GetFixturesByDateIntervalAndLeague(array("league"=>3,"startDateString"=>"2014-08-01 00:00","endDateString"=>"2014-09-30 00:00"));
	var_dump($result);
}
catch(XMLSoccerException $e){
	echo "XMLSoccerException: ".$e->getMessage();
}
