• Thin & minimal low-level HTTP client to interact with Algolia's API
• Supports php ^8.0.

First, install Algolia PHP API Client via the composer package manager:

composer require algolia/algoliasearch-client-php "^4.0"

You can now import the Algolia API client in your project and play with it.

use Algolia\AlgoliaSearch\Api\SearchClient;

$client = SearchClient::create('<YOUR_APP_ID>', '<YOUR_API_KEY>');

// Add a new record to your Algolia index
$response = $client->saveObject(
    '<YOUR_INDEX_NAME>',
    ['objectID' => 'id',
        'test' => 'val',
    ],
);

// play with the response
var_dump($response);

// Poll the task status to know when it has been indexed
$client->waitForTask('<YOUR_INDEX_NAME>', $response['taskID']);

// Fetch search results, with typo tolerance
$response = $client->search(
    ['requests' => [
        ['indexName' => '<YOUR_INDEX_NAME>',
            'query' => '<YOUR_QUERY>',
            'hitsPerPage' => 50,
        ],
    ],
    ],
);
