Add this to your composer.json:

{
    "require": {
        "balanced/balanced": "*"
    }
}

Refresh your dependencies:

$ php composer.phar update

Then make sure to require the autoloader and initialize all:

<?php
require(__DIR__ . '/vendor/autoload.php');

\Httpful\Bootstrap::init();
\RESTful\Bootstrap::init();
\Balanced\Bootstrap::init();
...

Phar

Download an Httpful phar file, which are all here:

$ curl -s -L -o httpful.phar https://github.com/downloads/nategood/httpful/httpful.phar

Download a RESTful phar file, which are all here:

$ curl -s -L -o restful.phar https://github.com/bninja/restful/downloads/restful.phar

Download a Balanced phar file, which are all here:

$ curl -s -L -o balanced.phar https://github.com/balanced/balanced-php/downloads/balanced-{VERSION}.phar

And then include all:

<?php

include(__DIR__ . '/restful.phar');
include(__DIR__ . '/balanced.phar');
...

Source

Usage

See https://www.balancedpayments.com/docs/overview?language=php for tutorials and documentation.

Testing

$ phpunit --bootstrap vendor/autoload.php tests/

Or if you'd like to skip network calls:

$ phpunit --exclude-group suite --bootstrap vendor/autoload.php tests/

Publishing

1. Ensure that all [tests](#testing) pass
2. Increment minor VERSION in src/Balanced/Settings and composer.json (git commit -am 'v{VERSION} release')
3. Tag it (git tag -a v{VERSION} -m 'v{VERSION} release')
4. Push the tag (git push --tag)
5. Packagist will see the new tag and take it from there
6. Build (build-phar) and upload a phar file

Contributing

1. Fork it
2. Create your feature branch (git checkout -b my-new-feature)
3. Write your code and [tests](#testing)
4. Ensure all tests still pass (phpunit --bootstrap vendor/autoload.php tests/)
5. Commit your changes (git commit -am 'Add some feature')
6. Push to the branch (git push origin my-new-feature)
7. Create new pull request
