Simple PHP Wrapper for the Shiphero API
IMPORTANT: I am not currently, nor previously have been, affiliated with Shiphero or any of Shiphero's professional associates. This wrapper is purely my own work and carries no endorsements other than my own.
The easiest way to install this package is via composer. Use the following to install this package:
composer require mdeschermeier/shiphero
Alternatively, these files can be downloaded and stored for use in any location you see fit, so long as Shiphero.php and Shiphero_const.php remain in the same directory.
This is a bare-bones wrapper for Shiphero's REST API. While fully capable of interacting with the Shiphero interface, please note that most methods require multi-dimensional associative arrays that mimic the structure of the JSON objects that ultimately get passed into cURL.
Be sure to look at Shiphero's API Documentation in order to understand how to structure your arrays and format your data.
Examples are provided to assist you with understanding this wrapper, but it is not a replacement for understanding the actual API documentation.
This wrapper will handle all required cURL functions and JSON encoding/decoding. In the event that additional cURL options
need to be modified, a method is provided to accomodate this need. Additionally, once the API
Key is set via Shiphero::setKey($k), the 'token' => '<Your API Key>' element of the arrays passed into the various methods of the wrapper will not be required and should be omitted from the arrays.
Parameters: $k string
This method sets the variable that holds your API Key. This method MUST be executed prior to making API calls!
Shiphero::setKey('<your API key>');Parameters: $b bool
Toggle Host/Peer verification on cURL requests. Can be toggled as needed. set to true by default
Shiphero::verifyPeer(true); //Enables Host/Peer Verification
/*==== or ====*/
Shiphero::verifyPeer(false); //Disables Host/Peer VerificationParameters: $opt const, $val mixed
In the event that additional cURL options need to be configured with your requests, they can be set via this method. NOTE: CURLOPT_POST, CURLOPT_HTTPHEADER, and CURLOPT_POSTFIELDS are blacklisted and will NOT be modified!
Shiphero::setAdditionalCurlOpt(CURLOPT_VERBOSE, true);Parameters: $b bool
If you need cURL to remember your options for concurrent requests, this method will allow for it. Once passed a true value, the Shiphero class will remember your cURL option settings for each request until this method is passed a false value. Default setting is false
Shiphero::setAdditionalCurlOpt(CURLOPT_VERBOSE, true); // - set a custom cURL option for next API request.
Shiphero::preserveAdditionalCurlOpt(true); // - Will remember cURL option settings until turned off
//send some requests
Shiphero::getOrderById(383484); // - cURL options remembered (CURLOPT_VERBOSE = true)
Shiphero::getProducts(); // - cURL options remembered (CURLOPT_VERBOSE = true)
Shiphero::preserveAdditionalCurlOpt(false); //Turn off cURL option rememberance and clear out stored values.
Shiphero::getVendorList(): // - Request ran with default options (CURLOPT_VERBOSE = false)Parameters: $prod array - optional
Query the API for product information. This method handles both the retrieval of a single product (by sku) and the retrieval of all items using default settings.
$prod = array('sku' => 12345);
$response = Shiphero::getProduct($prod) // - Get one item.
$prod = array('page'=>2, 'count'=>150);
$response = Shiphero::getProduct($prod); // - Of all items, return second page, limit 150 items per page.
$response = Shiphero::getProduct(); // - Get all items, no paging (returns the first 50 products).Parameters: $sku string, $prod array, $type string - default "simple"
Given a sku and an array containing product information, this method will create a product. There are two types of products: simple and configurable. Configurable is generally used for creating products with variants. This method uses the $type parameter to distinguish
between the two. Defaults to simple.
$sku = 'abc-123';
$product = array('title'=>'Sample Item Name', 'available_inventory'=>500, 'value'=>5.00, 'price'=>5000.00,
'images'=> array(
array('url' => 'http://made.up.domain.com/super_rad_product.png',
'position' => 1),
array('url' => 'http://another.made.up.domain.co.uk/more-rad-product.jpg',
'position' => 2)
));
Shiphero::createProduct($sku, $product); // - Create the simple product.To create a Configurable Product (a product with Variants), the same structure for the $product array should be followed.
Please see the API documentation for a complete list of parameters that can be set.
Parameters: $prod array
This method will add a product to the Product Inventory Update Queue. When used in conjunction with Shiphero::updateInventory(),
basic product information can be updated. Please see the API documentation for a complete list of parameters that can be set.

Shiphero::clearKit('abc-123');
// Kit 1 (sku 'abc-123') Components (skus): Nothing (empty)Parameters: $filter array, $all_stores int
Returns all orders that fit the parameters set in the $filter array. Setting $all_stores to 1 will return all orders associated
with the current Shiphero account. Setting $all_stores to 0 will only return orders associated with the store tied to the API Key
being used. Default $all_stores value is 0.
Please see the Shiphero API Documentation for more information on the parameters being set in the $filter array.
$filter = array('page'=>1, 'from'=>'2016-9-1', 'to'=>'2016-9-28');

Return an order by order number.
//Returns order number: 427895-Fri-1
Shiphero::getOrder('427895-Fri-1');Parameters: $order array
This method creates an order. Due to the size of the array needing to be passed in, please see the Shiphero API Documentation for a detailed list of all required and optional parameters. The following example shows the basic structure of the array.
Note: There are plans to add methods to this class to aid in the construction of an order, so as to make this process less painful.
// Define the order
$order = array(
'email' => '[email protected],
'line_items' => array(
array(
'sku' => 'abc-123',
'name' => 'Item 1',
...

'order_id' => '1234567890',
...
);
// Create the Order
Shiphero::createOrder($order);Parameters: $order array
Similar to the Shiphero::createOrder($order) method, this method updates order information. As with the Shiphero::createOrder($order) method, please refer to the Shiphero API Documentation for a detailed list of parameters.
Additionally, the only required parameters are the 'order_number' and the parameters you wish to update.
$order = array(
'order_number' => '1234-123',
...
);
Shiphero::updateOrder($order);Parameters: $hist array
This method adds an order history to a given order. Please note that 'order_id' is not the same as 'order_number'.
$hist = array(
'order_id' => 123456,
'username' => '[email protected]',
'information' => 'A note on the order history'
);
Shiphero::createOrderHistory($hist);Parameters:
This method returns the full list of vendors.
$vendors = Shiphero::getVendorList();Parameters: $vendor array
Creates a vendor. See the Shiphero API Documentation for a complete list of parameters that can be set.
$vendor = array('vendor_name' => 'Wyld Stallyn Guitars', // - vendor_name is the only required parameter.
'vendor_city' => 'San Dimas',
'vendor_state' => 'California'
);
Shiphero::createVendor($vendor);Parameters: $data array
Adds a product to the Vendor Queue. When used in conjunction with Shiphero::addProductsToVendor(), products can be added to vendors. For a full list of required/optional parameters, see the Shiphero API Documentation.
$product1 = array('sku' => 'abc-123', 'vendor_id' => '1234');
Shiphero::addProductToVendorQueue($product1);
// Products in Vendor Queue:
// $product1:
// sku: '1234'
// vendor_id: '1234'
//
$product2 = array('sku' => '5678', 'vendor_id' => '9012', 'price' => 40.99, 'manufacturer_sku' => 'mSku-494');
Shiphero::addProductToVendorQueue($product2);
// Products in Vendor Queue:
// $product1:
// sku: '1234'
// vendor_id: '1234'
//
// $product2:
// sku: '5678'
// vendor_id: '9012'
// price: 40.99
// manufacturer_sku: 'msku-494'
//Parameters:
Takes products from the Vendor Queue and adds them to vendors. Once this method is complete, the Vendor Queue is emptied. Example below is a continuation of the example for Shiphero::addProductToVendorQueue($data).
// Products in Vendor Queue:
// $product1:
// sku: '1234'
// vendor_id: '1234'
//
// $product2:
// sku: '5678'
// vendor_id: '9012'

// manufacturer_sku: 'msku-494'
//
Shiphero::addProductsToVendors();
// Products in Vendor Queue:
// Nothing (empty)
//Parameters: $vendor_id int, $sku string
This method will remove a product from a vendor.
//Vendor ID: 123456
// contains items (skus):
// 'abc-123'
// 'def-456'
// 'ghi-789'
//
Shiphero::removeProductFromVendor(123456, 'def-456');
//Vendor ID: 123456
// contains items (skus):
// 'abc-123'
// 'ghi-789'
//Parameters: $status string
Creates a fulfillment status.
Shiphero::createFulfillmentStatus('My Custom Status');Parameters: $status string
Deletes a fulfillment status.
Shiphero::deleteFulfillmentStatus('My Custom Status');Parameters: $line_item array
This method will add line items to the PO Line Item Queue. The queue (similar in functionality to all other queues) will store line items for a PO until the method Shiphero::createPO($po) is called.
NOTE: Per the Shiphero API Documentation (specifically the parameters prefixed by line_items[n]), BOTH id and sku parameters must be set in addition to all other required parameters.
$line_item1 = array('id'=>3456789012, 'sku'=>'abc-123', 'name'=>'Test1',
'price'=>'25.00', 'quantity'=>30, 'sell_ahead'=>0);
//PO Line Item Queue Contains: $line_item1
$line_item2 = array('id'=>2345678901, 'sku'=>'def-456', 'name'=>'Test2',
'price'=>'0.00', 'quantity'=>40, 'sell_ahead'=>0);
//PO Line Item Queue Contains: $line_item1, $line_item2
$line_item3 = array('id'=>1234567890, 'sku'=>'ghi-789', 'name'=>'Item 3',
'price'=>'25.00', 'quantity'=>20, 'sell_ahead'=>0);
//PO Line Item Queue Contains: $line_item1, $line_item2, $line_item3
Parameters: $po array
Given basic information about a Purchase Order in the form of an array, this method will construct a Purchase Order using the information provided both in the $po array and PO Line Item Queue (see Shiphero::addProductToPoQueue($line_item)). For a complete list of required/optional parameters, please see the Shiphero API Documentation, and note that the line_items parameter in its entirety does not pertain to this method.
Upon completion, this method clears the PO Line Item Queue.
NOTE: While optional, if the expected_date parameter is not set, Shiphero defaults to setting the date as 11/30/-0001. In Shiphero, this is an invalid date, and when updating PO's the system will reject the updates until this date is manually corrected. Therefore, this wrapper automatically sets the expected_date parameter to the current date if the parameter is not already set.
The following example is a continuation of the example for Shiphero::addProductToPoQueue($line_item).
...
Shiphero::addProductToPoQueue($line_item1);
Shiphero::addProductToPoQueue($line_item2);
Shiphero::addProductToPoQueue($line_item3);
//PO Line Item Queue Contains: $line_item1, $line_item2, $line_item3
$po = array('email'=>'[email protected]', 'vendor_name'=>'A. Vendor, Inc', 'created_at'=>'2016-10-03 10:42:25');
Shiphero::createPO($po);
//PO Line Item Queue Contains: Nothing (empty)Parameters: $po_id int
This method retrieves information about a given PO.
$po_1 = Shiphero::getPO(1); // - Return information from PO ID: 1
$po_2 = Shiphero::getPO(2); // - Return information from PO ID: 2
$po_3 = Shiphero::getPO(456789); // - Return information from PO ID: 456789
Parameters: $filter array
This method returns a collection of Shipments based on filtering criteria. See the Shiphero API Documentation for a full list of parameters.
NOTE: All returned collections come back from the Shiphero API as a paginated response. Do not forget to set your page parameter!
//Get page 1 of all shipments from Sept. 28, 2016
$filter = array('page'=>1, 'from'=>'2016-09-28', 'to'=>'2016-09-28');
$collection1 = Shiphero::getShipments($filter);
//Get page 6 of all shipments from Sept. 28, 2016 to Oct. 2, 2016
$filter = array('page'=>6, 'from'=>'2016-09-28', 'to'=>'2016-10-2');
$collection2 = Shiphero::getShipments($filter);
Parameters: $shipment array
This method creates a Shipment. As the input array is quite long, viewing the Shiphero API Documentation is highly encouraged.
NOTE: Future plans include breaking this process up into smaller chunks to make things more easily managable.
$shipment = array('warehouse'=>'Primary',
'profile'=>'default',
'shipment'=>array(
'shipment_id'=>'123456',

Shiphero::createShipment($shipment);
Parameters: $hook_info array
This method will register a webhook with the Shiphero API. Take special note of the parameters name and source in the Shiphero API Documentation, as these are pre-defined values.
NOTE: Webhooks for Capture Payment and Return Update are still in development at Shiphero. This file will be updated to reflect the changes when they become available. Additionally, the Shiphero API requires a response header from any created webhooks, else the transaction will not be complete!
//register a webhook to post to URL 'http://my.owned.url.for/webhooks/' every time inventory is updated on my bigcommerce store.
$hook_info = array('name'=>'Inventory Update', 'url'=>'http://my.owned.url.for/webhooks/', 'source'=>'bigcommerce');
Shiphero::registerWebhook($hook_info);Parameters:
