Laravel Box

Introduction

A Laravel package for working with Box.

https://github.com/dcblogdev/laravel-box

Box API documentation can be found at: https://developer.box.com/

Import Namespace

use Dcblogdev\Box\Facades\Box;

A routes example:

Route::get('box', function() {

    //if no box token exists then redirect
    Box::getAccessToken(); 
    
    //box authenticated now box:: can be used freely.

    //example of getting the authenticated users details
    return Box::get('/users/me');
    
});

Route::get('box/oauth', function() {
    return Box::connect();
});

Calls can be made by referencing Box:: then the verb get,post,put,patch or delete followed by the end point to call. An array can be passed as a second option.

The end points are relative paths after https://api.box.com/2.0/

Example GET request

Box::get('users/me');

Example POST request

Box::post('folders', [
    'name' => 'name of the folder',
    'parent' => [
        'id' => 0
    ]
]);

The formula is:

Box::get('path', $array);
Box::post('path', $array);
Box::put('path', $array);
Box::patch('path', $array);
Box::delete('path', $array);
