Example

Base64 response format

<?php

require 'vendor/autoload.php';

use PikaSdk\Client;

$client = new Client("sk-he2jdus1cbz1dpt4mktgjyvx");

$modifications = [
'title' => 'Title from PHP SDK.',
'description' => 'Description from PHP SDK.'
];

$response = $client->generateImageFromTemplate('open-graph-image-1', $modifications, 'base64');
print_r($response['data']['base64']);

Base64 output

data:image/png;base64,iVBORw0KGgoAAAANSUhEUgAABLAAAAJ2CAYAAABPQHtcAAAAAXNSR0IArs4c6QAAIABJREFUeJzs3XmYJXdZL/Bvna37dM90FghLCBAQkC1BCBAMShLFBJAgKnofroBeFUUF5LrhiihXcV8BQRYVUUAlIewIGPbFmLCFLWwCYZEtzPR+trp/TM/......

Binary response format

<?php

require 'vendor/autoload.php';

use PikaSdk\Client;

$client = new Client("sk-he2jdus1cbz1dpt4mktgjyvx");

$modifications = [
'title' => 'Title from PHP SDK.',
'description' => 'Description from PHP SDK.'
];

$response = $client->generateImageFromTemplate('open-graph-image-1', $modifications, 'binary');
file_put_contents('og.png', $response);
