Video for PHP with Mux

Easily build beautiful video experiences into your PHP app.

Installation

We publish Mux PHP to Packagist. You should depend on Mux PHP by adding us to your composer.json file.

{ "require": { "muxinc/mux-php": ">=0.0.1" } }

Then install your dependencies.

composer install

And then autoload in your code.

require_once 'vendor/autoload.php';

Usage

To start, you'll need a Mux access token. Once you've got that, you're off to the races!

// Authentication Setup $config = MuxPhp\Configuration::getDefaultConfiguration() ->setUsername(getenv('MUX_TOKEN_ID')) ->setPassword(getenv('MUX_TOKEN_SECRET')); // API Client Initialization $assetsApi = new MuxPhp\Api\AssetsApi( new GuzzleHttp\Client(), $config ); // Create Asset Request $input = new MuxPhp\Models\InputSettings(["url" => "https://storage.googleapis.com/muxdemofiles/mux-video-intro.mp4"]); $createAssetRequest = new MuxPhp\Models\CreateAssetRequest(["input" => $input, "playback_policy" => [MuxPhp\Models\PlaybackPolicy::PUBLIC_PLAYBACK_POLICY] ]); // Ingest $result = $assetsApi->createAsset($createAssetRequest); // Print URL print "Playback URL: https://stream.mux.com/" . $result->getData()->getPlaybackIds()[0]->getId() . ".m3u8\n"
