Xero Accounting API Laravel 5 Wrapper

A Laravel 5 wrapper for calcinai/xero-php (a custom API for integrating with Xero).

Installation via Composer

Require the package

composer require byrontudhope/xerolaravel "1.0.*"

Publish the configuration file

php artisan vendor:publish

This will create a xero/config.php within your config directory. (Note: Ensure that you have generated the necessary tokens and have generated the RSA keys required by Xero for authentication.) Edit the relevant values in the config.php file.

Ensure that the location of the RSA keys matches the required format (file://absolutepath)

Add the Service Provider to your config/app.php under providers

'ByronTudhope\XeroLaravel\Providers\XeroServiceProvider',

**Register the Facades within config/app.php under aliases

'XeroPrivate'=> 'ByronTudhope\XeroLaravel\Facades\XeroPrivate',

Dependencies and Requirements

This Service Provider current wraps the calcinai/xero-php version 1.1.* package.

Additionally, you must have PHP installed with the following extensions:

• php_curl (7.30+)
• php_openssl

Usage

There are two ways to use the classes: via the IoC container, or via a Facade. They both offer the same functionality, so use each depending on your preference.

Get all invoices

Facade

$invoices = XeroPrivate::load('Accounting\\Invoice')->execute();

IoC Container

// Create an instance of the class, resolved out of the IoC container
$xero = $this->app->make('XeroPrivate');
    
$invoices = $xero->load('Accounting\\Invoice')->execute();
    

Get a single invoice via GUID or invoice number

Facade

$invoice = XeroPrivate::loadByGUID('Accounting\\Invoice', 'inv-0004);

IoC Container

$xero = $this->app->make('XeroPrivate');

$invoice = $xero->loadByGUID('Accounting\\Invoice', 'inv-0004);

Update an existing invoice

Facade

$invoice = XeroPrivate::loadByGUID('Accounting\\Invoice', 'inv-0004);

$invoice->setStatus('Paid');

XeroPrivate::save($invoice);

IoC Container

$xero = $this->app->make('XeroPrivate');

$invoice = $xero->loadByGUID('Accounting\\Invoice', 'inv-0004);

$invoice->setStatus('Paid');

$xero->save($invoice);

Creating a new invoice

/* 
 * Resolve instances of Xero, XeroInvoice, XeroContact 
 * and XeroInvoiceLine out of the IoC container.
 */
 
$xero = $this->app->make('XeroPrivate');
$invoice = $this->app->make('XeroInvoice');
$contact = $this->app->make('XeroContact');
$line1 = $this->app->make('XeroInvoiceLine');
$line2 = $this->app->make('XeroInvoiceLine');

// Set up the invoice contact
$contact->setAccountNumber('DMA01');
$contact->setContactStatus('ACTIVE');
$contact->setName('Amo Chohan');
$contact->setFirstName('Amo');
$contact->setLastName('Chohan');
$contact->setEmailAddress('amo.chohan@gmail.com');
$contact->setDefaultCurrency('GBP');

// Assign the contact to the invoice
$invoice->setContact($contact);

// Set the type of invoice being created (ACCREC / ACCPAY)
$invoice->setType('ACCREC');

$dateInstance = new DateTime();
$invoice->setDate($dateInstance);
$invoice->setDueDate($dateInstance);
$invoice->setInvoiceNumber('DMA-00001');
$invoice->setReference('DMA-00001');

// Provide an URL which can be linked to from Xero to view the full order
$invoice->setUrl('http://yourdomain/fullpathtotheorder');

$invoice->setCurrencyCode('GBP');
$invoice->setStatus('Draft');

// Create some order lines
$line1->setDescription('Blue tshirt');

$line1->setQuantity(1);
$line1->setUnitAmount(99.99);
$line1->setTaxAmount(0);
$line1->setLineAmount(99.99);
$line1->setDiscountRate(0); // Percentage

// Add the line to the order
$invoice->addLineItem($line1);

// Repeat for all lines...

$xero->save($invoice);

Creating Attachments

$xero = $this->app->make('XeroPrivate');

$attachment = $this->app->make('XeroAttachment')
    ->createFromLocalFile(storage_path('your_file.pdf'));
  
$invoice = $xero->loadByGUID('Accounting\\Invoice', 'AMO-00002');
$invoice->addAttachment($attachment);
