# Laravel Zendesk
This package provides integration with the Zendesk API. It supports creating tickets, retrieving and updating tickets, deleting tickets, etc.
The package simply provides a `Zendesk` facade that acts as a wrapper to the [zendesk/zendesk_api_client_php](https://github.com/zendesk/zendesk_api_client_php) package.
**NB:** Currently only supports token-based authentication.
## Installation
You can install this package via Composer using:
```bash
composer require huddledigital/zendesk-laravel
```
You must also install the service provider.
> Laravel 5.5+ users: this step may be skipped, as the package supports auto discovery.
```php
// config/app.php
'providers' => [
...
Huddle\Zendesk\Providers\ZendeskServiceProvider::class,
...
];
```
If you want to make use of the facade you must install it as well.
```php
// config/app.php
'aliases' => [
..
'Zendesk' => Huddle\Zendesk\Facades\Zendesk::class,
];
```
## Configuration
To publish the config file to `app/config/zendesk-laravel.php` run:
```bash
php artisan vendor:publish --provider="Huddle\Zendesk\Providers\ZendeskServiceProvider"
```
Set your configuration using **environment variables**, either in your `.env` file or on your server's control panel:
- `ZENDESK_SUBDOMAIN`
The subdomain part of your Zendesk organisation URL.
e.g. http://huddledigital.zendesk.com use **huddledigital**
- `ZENDESK_USERNAME`
The username for the authenticating account.
- `ZENDESK_TOKEN`
The API access token. You can create one at: `https://SUBDOMAIN.zendesk.com/agent/admin/api/settings`
- `ZENDESK_DRIVER` _(Optional)_
Set this to `null` or `log` to prevent calling the Zendesk API directly from your environment.
## Usage
### Facade
The `Zendesk` facade acts as a wrapper for an instance of the `Zendesk\API\Client` class. Any methods available on this class ([documentation here](https://github.com/zendesk/zendesk_api_client_php#usage)) are available through the facade. for example:
```php
// Get all tickets
Zendesk::tickets()->findAll();
// Create a new ticket
Zendesk::tickets()->create([
'subject' => 'Subject',
'comment' => [
'body' => 'Ticket content.'
],
'priority' => 'normal'
]);
// Update multiple tickets
Zendesk::ticket([123, 456])->update([
'status' => 'urgent'
]);
// Delete a ticket
Zendesk::ticket(123)->delete();
```
### Dependency injection
If you'd prefer not to use the facade, you can skip adding the alias to `config/app.php` and instead inject `Huddle\Zendesk\Services\ZendeskService` into your class. You can then use all of the same methods on this object as you would on the facade.
```php
<?php
use Huddle\Zendesk\Services\ZendeskService;
class MyClass {
public function __construct(ZendeskService $zendesk_service) {
$this->zendesk_service = $zendesk_service;
}
public function addTicket() {
$this->zendesk_service->tickets()->create([
'subject' => 'Subject',
'comment' => [
'body' => 'Ticket content.'
],
'priority' => 'normal'
]);
}
}
```
