Installation

To install the Coconut PHP library, you need composer first:

curl -sS https://getcomposer.org/installer | php

Edit composer.json:

{
    "require": {
        "opencoconut/coconut": "3.*"
    }
}

Install the depencies by executing composer:

php composer.phar install

Usage

The library needs you to set your API key which can be found in your dashboard. Webhook URL and storage settings are optional but are very convenient because you set them only once.

<?php

require_once('vendor/autoload.php');

$coconut = new Coconut\Client('k-api-key');

$coconut->notification = [
  'type' => 'http',
  'url' => 'https://yoursite/api/coconut/webhook'
];

$coconut->storage = [
  'service' => 's3',
  'bucket' => 'my-bucket',
  'region' => 'us-east-1',
  'credentials' => [
    'access_key_id' => 'access-key',
    'secret_access_key' => 'secret-key'
  ]
];

?>

Creating a job

<?php

try {
  $job = $coconut->job->create([
    'input' => [ 'url' => 'https://mysite/path/file.mp4' ],
    'outputs' => [
      'jpg:300x' => [ 'path' => '/image.jpg' ],
      'mp4:1080p' => [ 'path' => '/1080p.mp4' ],
      'httpstream' => [
        'hls' => [ 'path' => 'hls/' ]
