+======================
+The Guzzle HTTP client
+======================
+
+Guzzle gives PHP developers complete control over HTTP requests while utilizing HTTP/1.1 best practices. Guzzle's HTTP
+functionality is a robust framework built on top of the `PHP libcurl bindings <http://www.php.net/curl>`_.
+
+The three main parts of the Guzzle HTTP client are:
+
++--------------+-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+
+| Clients | ``Guzzle\Http\Client`` (creates and sends requests, associates a response with a request) |
++--------------+-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+
+| Requests | ``Guzzle\Http\Message\Request`` (requests with no body), |
+| | ``Guzzle\Http\Message\EntityEnclosingRequest`` (requests with a body) |
++--------------+-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+
+| Responses | ``Guzzle\Http\Message\Response`` |
++--------------+-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+
+
+Creating a Client
+-----------------
+
+Clients create requests, send requests, and set responses on a request object. When instantiating a client object,
+you can pass an optional "base URL" and optional array of configuration options. A base URL is a
+:doc:`URI template <uri-templates>` that contains the URL of a remote server. When creating requests with a relative
+URL, the base URL of a client will be merged into the request's URL.
+
+.. code-block:: php
+
+ use Guzzle\Http\Client;
+
+ // Create a client and provide a base URL
+ $client = new Client('https://api.github.com');
+
+ $request = $client->get('/user');
+ $request->setAuth('user', 'pass');
+ echo $request->getUrl();
+ // >>> https://api.github.com/user
+
+ // You must send a request in order for the transfer to occur
+ $response = $request->send();
+
+ echo $response->getBody();
+ // >>> {"type":"User", ...
+
+ echo $response->getHeader('Content-Length');
+ // >>> 792
+
+ $data = $response->json();
+ echo $data['type'];
+ // >>> User
+
+Base URLs
+~~~~~~~~~
+
+Notice that the URL provided to the client's ``get()`` method is relative. Relative URLs will always merge into the
+base URL of the client. There are a few rules that control how the URLs are merged.
+
+.. tip::
+
+ Guzzle follows `RFC 3986 <http://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc3986#section-5.2>`_ when merging base URLs and
+ relative URLs.
+
+In the above example, we passed ``/user`` to the ``get()`` method of the client. This is a relative URL, so it will
+merge into the base URL of the client-- resulting in the derived URL of ``https://api.github.com/users``.
+
+``/user`` is a relative URL but uses an absolute path because it contains the leading slash. Absolute paths will
+overwrite any existing path of the base URL. If an absolute path is provided (e.g. ``/path/to/something``), then the
+path specified in the base URL of the client will be replaced with the absolute path, and the query string provided
+by the relative URL will replace the query string of the base URL.
+
+Omitting the leading slash and using relative paths will add to the path of the base URL of the client. So using a
+client base URL of ``https://api.twitter.com/v1.1`` and creating a GET request with ``statuses/user_timeline.json``
+will result in a URL of ``https://api.twitter.com/v1.1/statuses/user_timeline.json``. If a relative path and a query
+string are provided, then the relative path will be appended to the base URL path, and the query string provided will
+be merged into the query string of the base URL.
+
+If an absolute URL is provided (e.g. ``http://httpbin.org/ip``), then the request will completely use the absolute URL
+as-is without merging in any of the URL parts specified in the base URL.
+
+Configuration options
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+
+The second argument of the client's constructor is an array of configuration data. This can include URI template data
+or special options that alter the client's behavior:
+
++-------------------------------+-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+
+| ``request.options`` | Associative array of :ref:`Request options <request-options>` to apply to every |
+| | request created by the client. |
++-------------------------------+-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+
+| ``redirect.disable`` | Disable HTTP redirects for every request created by the client. |
++-------------------------------+-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+
+| ``curl.options`` | Associative array of cURL options to apply to every request created by the client. |
+| | if either the key or value of an entry in the array is a string, Guzzle will |
+| | attempt to find a matching defined cURL constant automatically (e.g. |
+| | "CURLOPT_PROXY" will be converted to the constant ``CURLOPT_PROXY``). |
++-------------------------------+-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+
+| ``ssl.certificate_authority`` | Set to true to use the Guzzle bundled SSL certificate bundle (this is used by |
+| | default, 'system' to use the bundle on your system, a string pointing to a file to |
+| | use a specific certificate file, a string pointing to a directory to use multiple |
+| | certificates, or ``false`` to disable SSL validation (not recommended). |
+| | |
+| | When using Guzzle inside of a phar file, the bundled SSL certificate will be |
+| | extracted to your system's temp folder, and each time a client is created an MD5 |
+| | check will be performed to ensure the integrity of the certificate. |
++-------------------------------+-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+
+| ``command.params`` | When using a ``Guzzle\Service\Client`` object, this is an associative array of |
+| | default options to set on each command created by the client. |
++-------------------------------+-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+
+
+Here's an example showing how to set various configuration options, including default headers to send with each request,
+default query string parameters to add to each request, a default auth scheme for each request, and a proxy to use for
+each request. Values can be injected into the client's base URL using variables from the configuration array.
+
+.. code-block:: php
+
+ use Guzzle\Http\Client;
+
+ $client = new Client('https://api.twitter.com/{version}', array(
+ 'version' => 'v1.1',
+ 'request.options' => array(
+ 'headers' => array('Foo' => 'Bar'),
+ 'query' => array('testing' => '123'),
+ 'auth' => array('username', 'password', 'Basic|Digest|NTLM|Any'),
+ 'proxy' => 'tcp://localhost:80'
+ )
+ ));
+
+Setting a custom User-Agent
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+
+The default Guzzle User-Agent header is ``Guzzle/<Guzzle_Version> curl/<curl_version> PHP/<PHP_VERSION>``. You can
+customize the User-Agent header of a client by calling the ``setUserAgent()`` method of a Client object.
+
+.. code-block:: php
+
+ // Completely override the default User-Agent
+ $client->setUserAgent('Test/123');
+
+ // Prepend a string to the default User-Agent
+ $client->setUserAgent('Test/123', true);
+
+Creating requests with a client
+-------------------------------
+
+A Client object exposes several methods used to create Request objects:
+
+* Create a custom HTTP request: ``$client->createRequest($method, $uri, array $headers, $body, $options)``
+* Create a GET request: ``$client->get($uri, array $headers, $options)``
+* Create a HEAD request: ``$client->head($uri, array $headers, $options)``
+* Create a DELETE request: ``$client->delete($uri, array $headers, $body, $options)``
+* Create a POST request: ``$client->post($uri, array $headers, $postBody, $options)``
+* Create a PUT request: ``$client->put($uri, array $headers, $body, $options)``
+* Create a PATCH request: ``$client->patch($uri, array $headers, $body, $options)``
+
+.. code-block:: php
+
+ use Guzzle\Http\Client;
+
+ $client = new Client('http://baseurl.com/api/v1');
+
+ // Create a GET request using Relative to base URL
+ // URL of the request: http://baseurl.com/api/v1/path?query=123&value=abc)
+ $request = $client->get('path?query=123&value=abc');
+ $response = $request->send();
+
+ // Create HEAD request using a relative URL with an absolute path
+ // URL of the request: http://baseurl.com/path?query=123&value=abc
+ $request = $client->head('/path?query=123&value=abc');
+ $response = $request->send();
+
+ // Create a DELETE request using an absolute URL
+ $request = $client->delete('http://www.example.com/path?query=123&value=abc');
+ $response = $request->send();
+
+ // Create a PUT request using the contents of a PHP stream as the body
+ // Specify custom HTTP headers
+ $request = $client->put('http://www.example.com/upload', array(
+ 'X-Header' => 'My Header'
+ ), fopen('http://www.test.com/', 'r'));
+ $response = $request->send();
+
+ // Create a POST request and add the POST files manually
+ $request = $client->post('http://localhost:8983/solr/update')
+ ->addPostFiles(array('file' => '/path/to/documents.xml'));
+ $response = $request->send();
+
+ // Check if a resource supports the DELETE method
+ $supportsDelete = $client->options('/path')->send()->isMethodAllowed('DELETE');
+ $response = $request->send();
+
+Client objects create Request objects using a request factory (``Guzzle\Http\Message\RequestFactoryInterface``).
+You can inject a custom request factory into the Client using ``$client->setRequestFactory()``, but you can typically
+rely on a Client's default request factory.
+
+Static clients
+--------------
+
+You can use Guzzle's static client facade to more easily send simple HTTP requests.
+
+.. code-block:: php
+
+ // Mount the client so that you can access it at \Guzzle
+ Guzzle\Http\StaticClient::mount();
+ $response = Guzzle::get('http://guzzlephp.org');
+
+Each request method of the static client (e.g. ``get()``, ``post()`, ``put()``, etc) accepts an associative array of request
+options to apply to the request.
+
+.. code-block:: php
+
+ $response = Guzzle::post('http://test.com', array(
+ 'headers' => array('X-Foo' => 'Bar'),
+ 'body' => array('Test' => '123'),
+ 'timeout' => 10
+ ));
+
+.. _request-options:
+
+Request options
+---------------
+
+Request options can be specified when creating a request or in the ``request.options`` parameter of a client. These
+options can control various aspects of a request including: headers to send, query string data, where the response
+should be downloaded, proxies, auth, etc.
+
+headers
+~~~~~~~
+
+Associative array of headers to apply to the request. When specified in the ``$options`` argument of a client creational
+method (e.g. ``get()``, ``post()``, etc), the headers in the ``$options`` array will overwrite headers specified in the
+``$headers`` array.
+
+.. code-block:: php
+
+ $request = $client->get($url, array(), array(
+ 'headers' => array('X-Foo' => 'Bar')
+ ));
+
+Headers can be specified on a client to add default headers to every request sent by a client.
+
+.. code-block:: php
+
+ $client = new Guzzle\Http\Client();
+
+ // Set a single header using path syntax
+ $client->setDefaultOption('headers/X-Foo', 'Bar');
+
+ // Set all headers
+ $client->setDefaultOption('headers', array('X-Foo' => 'Bar'));
+
+.. note::
+
+ In addition to setting request options when creating requests or using the ``setDefaultOption()`` method, any
+ default client request option can be set using a client's config object:
+
+ .. code-block:: php
+
+ $client->getConfig()->setPath('request.options/headers/X-Foo', 'Bar');
+
+query
+~~~~~
+
+Associative array of query string parameters to the request. When specified in the ``$options`` argument of a client
+creational method, the query string parameters in the ``$options`` array will overwrite query string parameters
+specified in the `$url`.
+
+.. code-block:: php
+
+ $request = $client->get($url, array(), array(
+ 'query' => array('abc' => '123')
+ ));
+
+Query string parameters can be specified on a client to add default query string parameters to every request sent by a
+client.
+
+.. code-block:: php
+
+ $client = new Guzzle\Http\Client();
+
+ // Set a single query string parameter using path syntax
+ $client->setDefaultOption('query/abc', '123');
+
+ // Set an array of default query string parameters
+ $client->setDefaultOption('query', array('abc' => '123'));
+
+body
+~~~~
+
+Sets the body of a request. The value supplied to the body option can be a ``Guzzle\Http\EntityBodyInterface``, string,
+fopen resource, or array when sending POST requests. When a ``body`` request option is supplied, the option value will
+overwrite the ``$body`` argument of a client creational method.
+
+auth
+~~~~
+
+Specifies and array of HTTP authorization parameters parameters to use with the request. The array must contain the
+username in index [0], the password in index [1], and can optionally contain the authentication type in index [2].
+The available authentication types are: "Basic" (default), "Digest", "NTLM", or "Any".
+
+.. code-block:: php
+
+ $request = $client->get($url, array(), array(
+ 'auth' => array('username', 'password', 'Digest')
+ ));
+
+ // You can add auth headers to every request of a client
+ $client->setDefaultOption('auth', array('username', 'password', 'Digest'));
+
+cookies
+~~~~~~~
+
+Specifies an associative array of cookies to add to the request.
+
+allow_redirects
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+
+Specifies whether or not the request should follow redirects. Requests will follow redirects by default. Set
+``allow_redirects`` to ``false`` to disable redirects.
+
+save_to
+~~~~~~~
+
+The ``save_to`` option specifies where the body of a response is downloaded. You can pass the path to a file, an fopen
+resource, or a ``Guzzle\Http\EntityBodyInterface`` object.
+
+See :ref:`Changing where a response is downloaded <request-set-response-body>` for more information on setting the
+`save_to` option.
+
+events
+~~~~~~
+
+The `events` option makes it easy to attach listeners to the various events emitted by a request object. The `events`
+options must be an associative array mapping an event name to a Closure or array the contains a Closure and the
+priority of the event.
+
+.. code-block:: php
+
+ $request = $client->get($url, array(), array(
+ 'events' => array(
+ 'request.before_send' => function (\Guzzle\Common\Event $e) {
+ echo 'About to send ' . $e['request'];
+ }
+ )
+ ));
+
+ // Using the static client:
+ Guzzle::get($url, array(
+ 'events' => array(
+ 'request.before_send' => function (\Guzzle\Common\Event $e) {
+ echo 'About to send ' . $e['request'];
+ }
+ )
+ ));
+
+plugins
+~~~~~~~
+
+The `plugins` options makes it easy to attach an array of plugins to a request.
+
+.. code-block:: php
+
+ // Using the static client:
+ Guzzle::get($url, array(
+ 'plugins' => array(
+ new Guzzle\Plugin\Cache\CachePlugin(),
+ new Guzzle\Plugin\Cookie\CookiePlugin()
+ )
+ ));
+
+exceptions
+~~~~~~~~~~
+
+The `exceptions` option can be used to disable throwing exceptions for unsuccessful HTTP response codes
+(e.g. 404, 500, etc). Set `exceptions` to false to not throw exceptions.
+
+params
+~~~~~~
+
+The `params` options can be used to specify an associative array of data parameters to add to a request. Note that
+these are not query string parameters.
+
+timeout / connect_timeout
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+
+You can specify the maximum number of seconds to allow for an entire transfer to take place before timing out using
+the `timeout` request option. You can specify the maximum number of seconds to wait while trying to connect using the
+`connect_timeout` request option. Set either of these options to 0 to wait indefinitely.
+
+.. code-block:: php
+
+ $request = $client->get('http://www.example.com', array(), array(
+ 'timeout' => 20,
+ 'connect_timeout' => 1.5
+ ));
+
+verify
+~~~~~~
+
+Set to true to enable SSL certificate validation (the default), false to disable SSL certificate validation, or supply
+the path to a CA bundle to enable verification using a custom certificate.
+
+cert
+~~~~
+
+The `cert` option lets you specify a PEM formatted SSL client certificate to use with servers that require one. If the
+certificate requires a password, provide an array with the password as the second item.
+
+This would typically be used in conjunction with the `ssl_key` option.
+
+.. code-block:: php
+
+ $request = $client->get('https://www.example.com', array(), array(
+ 'cert' => '/etc/pki/client_certificate.pem'
+ )
+
+ $request = $client->get('https://www.example.com', array(), array(
+ 'cert' => array('/etc/pki/client_certificate.pem', 's3cr3tp455w0rd')
+ )
+
+ssl_key
+~~~~~~~
+
+The `ssl_key` option lets you specify a file containing your PEM formatted private key, optionally protected by a password.
+Note: your password is sensitive, keep the PHP script containing it safe.
+
+This would typically be used in conjunction with the `cert` option.
+
+.. code-block:: php
+
+ $request = $client->get('https://www.example.com', array(), array(
+ 'ssl_key' => '/etc/pki/private_key.pem'
+ )
+
+ $request = $client->get('https://www.example.com', array(), array(
+ 'ssl_key' => array('/etc/pki/private_key.pem', 's3cr3tp455w0rd')
+ )
+
+proxy
+~~~~~
+
+The `proxy` option is used to specify an HTTP proxy (e.g. `http://username:password@192.168.16.1:10`).
+
+debug
+~~~~~
+
+The `debug` option is used to show verbose cURL output for a transfer.
+
+stream
+~~~~~~
+
+When using a static client, you can set the `stream` option to true to return a `Guzzle\Stream\Stream` object that can
+be used to pull data from a stream as needed (rather than have cURL download the entire contents of a response to a
+stream all at once).
+
+.. code-block:: php
+
+ $stream = Guzzle::get('http://guzzlephp.org', array('stream' => true));
+ while (!$stream->feof()) {
+ echo $stream->readLine();
+ }
+
+Sending requests
+----------------
+
+Requests can be sent by calling the ``send()`` method of a Request object, but you can also send requests using the
+``send()`` method of a Client.
+
+.. code-block:: php
+
+ $request = $client->get('http://www.amazon.com');
+ $response = $client->send($request);
+
+Sending requests in parallel
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+
+The Client's ``send()`` method accept a single ``Guzzle\Http\Message\RequestInterface`` object or an array of
+RequestInterface objects. When an array is specified, the requests will be sent in parallel.
+
+Sending many HTTP requests serially (one at a time) can cause an unnecessary delay in a script's execution. Each
+request must complete before a subsequent request can be sent. By sending requests in parallel, a pool of HTTP
+requests can complete at the speed of the slowest request in the pool, significantly reducing the amount of time
+needed to execute multiple HTTP requests. Guzzle provides a wrapper for the curl_multi functions in PHP.
+
+Here's an example of sending three requests in parallel using a client object:
+
+.. code-block:: php
+
+ use Guzzle\Common\Exception\MultiTransferException;
+
+ try {
+ $responses = $client->send(array(
+ $client->get('http://www.google.com/'),
+ $client->head('http://www.google.com/'),
+ $client->get('https://www.github.com/')
+ ));
+ } catch (MultiTransferException $e) {
+
+ echo "The following exceptions were encountered:\n";
+ foreach ($e as $exception) {
+ echo $exception->getMessage() . "\n";
+ }
+
+ echo "The following requests failed:\n";
+ foreach ($e->getFailedRequests() as $request) {
+ echo $request . "\n\n";
+ }
+
+ echo "The following requests succeeded:\n";
+ foreach ($e->getSuccessfulRequests() as $request) {
+ echo $request . "\n\n";
+ }
+ }
+
+If the requests succeed, an array of ``Guzzle\Http\Message\Response`` objects are returned. A single request failure
+will not cause the entire pool of requests to fail. Any exceptions thrown while transferring a pool of requests will
+be aggregated into a ``Guzzle\Common\Exception\MultiTransferException`` exception.
+
+Plugins and events
+------------------
+
+Guzzle provides easy to use request plugins that add behavior to requests based on signal slot event notifications
+powered by the
+`Symfony2 Event Dispatcher component <http://symfony.com/doc/2.0/components/event_dispatcher/introduction.html>`_. Any
+event listener or subscriber attached to a Client object will automatically be attached to each request created by the
+client.
+
+Using the same cookie session for each request
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+
+Attach a ``Guzzle\Plugin\Cookie\CookiePlugin`` to a client which will in turn add support for cookies to every request
+created by a client, and each request will use the same cookie session:
+
+.. code-block:: php
+
+ use Guzzle\Plugin\Cookie\CookiePlugin;
+ use Guzzle\Plugin\Cookie\CookieJar\ArrayCookieJar;
+
+ // Create a new cookie plugin
+ $cookiePlugin = new CookiePlugin(new ArrayCookieJar());
+
+ // Add the cookie plugin to the client
+ $client->addSubscriber($cookiePlugin);
+
+.. _client-events:
+
+Events emitted from a client
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+
+A ``Guzzle\Http\Client`` object emits the following events:
+
++------------------------------+--------------------------------------------+------------------------------------------+
+| Event name | Description | Event data |
++==============================+============================================+==========================================+
+| client.create_request | Called when a client creates a request | * client: The client |
+| | | * request: The created request |
++------------------------------+--------------------------------------------+------------------------------------------+
+
+.. code-block:: php
+
+ use Guzzle\Common\Event;
+ use Guzzle\Http\Client;
+
+ $client = new Client();
+
+ // Add a listener that will echo out requests as they are created
+ $client->getEventDispatcher()->addListener('client.create_request', function (Event $e) {
+ echo 'Client object: ' . spl_object_hash($e['client']) . "\n";
+ echo "Request object: {$e['request']}\n";
+ });
