net2web

PHP client library for Net2Web.

About

Net2, by Paxton, is an access control systems developer and provider. Their software runs on Windows and does have an SDK (in .NET), however it does not have a remotely accessible API of any sort. Net2Web runs alongside Net2 and exposes ~90% of the SDK functionality as an XML web accessible API.

This library aims to simply integration with the Net2Web exposed API.

Installation Instructions

Composer

Via command line simply do:

composer require gyron/net2web

Alternatively you can update the "require": { section in your composer.json with a line reading:

"gyron/net2web" : "v1.0.2"

Usage

Quick Start

Simply copy and paste the following code, and adjust the values:

$oNet2Encryption = new \Gyron\Net2Web\Encryption( 'ENCRYPTION KEY', \Gyron\Net2Web\Encryption::OpenSSL );
$oNet2Session = new \Gyron\Net2Web\Session( 'USERID', 'PASSWORD', 'NET2 SERVER IP', '7070', $oNet2Encryption );
$oNet2Client = new \Gyron\Net2Web\Client( $oNet2Session );

This will get you connected immediately, however it will create a new Net2Web session for every request.
It is recommended that you use $oNet2Session->getSessionId(), and cache this somewhere (for up to 2 to 4 hours). This can then be reused by passing the Session ID back into the Session instance:
new Session( ..., ..., ..., ..., $oEncryption $sessionId );

Advanced Implementation

Following is a sample implementation of the library in the form of a service factory which utilises caching of the session ID to local storage.

<?php declare( strict_types=1 );

namespace Gyron\Sample;

use Gyron\Net2Web\Client;
use Gyron\Net2Web\Encryption;
use Gyron\Net2Web\Session;

/**
 * Class AccessApiFactory
 * @package Gyron\Sample
 */
class AccessApiFactory {

  /**
   * @var string
   */
  private $sCachePath;

  /**
   * @param string $sCachePath
   */
  public function __construct( string $sCachePath ) {
    $this->sCachePath = $sCachePath;
  }

  /**
   * @param array $aConfig requires user_id, password, ip and port
   * @return Client
   * @throws \Exception
   */
  public function forConfig( array $aConfig ) {
    $sCacheFile = sprintf( '%s/net2web_session.sid', rtrim( $this->sCachePath, '/' ) );

    $sSessionId = null;
    if ( is_file( $sCacheFile ) ) {
      $sSessionId = trim( file_get_contents( $sCacheFile ) );
    }
        
    $oNet2Encryption = new Encryption( $aConfig['enckey']', Encryption::OpenSSL );
    $oNet2Session = new Session( $aConfig['user'], $aConfig['password'], $aConfig['host'], (string)$aConfig['port'], $oNet2Encryption, $sSessionId );
    if ( $sSessionId != $oNet2Session->getSessionId() ) {
      file_put_contents( $sCacheFile, trim( $oNet2Session->getSessionId() ) );
    }
    return ( new Client( $oNet2Session ) );
  }
}
