Inmovilla API Client (Unofficial)

inmovilla-api-client is a PHP library that provides an interface for interacting with the Inmovilla real estate API. It simplifies requests, pagination, and data handling, allowing developers to focus on building applications.

Note: This project is not affiliated with, endorsed by, or maintained by Inmovilla.

Features

• API Configuration: Easy setup using .ini files or arrays.
• Request Handling: Supports batch requests and flexible filtering.
• DTOs: Data transfer objects for working with API data in a structured way.
• Pagination: Handles paginated responses seamlessly.
• PSR Compliance: Built with PSR-7, PSR-11, and PSR-18 standards.

---

Requirements

• PHP: 7.4 or higher.
• Composer: For dependency management.
• Required PHP extensions:
  • ext-json
  • ext-curl

---

Installation

Install the package using Composer:

composer require inigo-aldama/inmovilla-api-client

---

Configuration

Using an .ini File

Create a configuration file (e.g., config/api.ini) with the following content:

api_url = "https://api.inmovilla.com/v1"
domain = "example.com"
agency = "my-agency"
password = "my-password"
language = 1

Load the configuration with:

use Inmovilla\ApiClient\ApiClientConfig;

$config = ApiClientConfig::fromIniFile('config/api.ini');

Using an Array

Alternatively, use an array for configuration:

$config = ApiClientConfig::fromArray([
    'AGENCY' => 'my-agency',
    'PASSWORD' => 'my-password',
    'LANGUAGE' => 1,
    'API_URL' => 'https://api.inmovilla.com/v1',
    'DOMAIN' => 'example.com',
]);

---

Example: Complete Flow

This example demonstrates how to retrieve cities, their zones, and properties associated with those zones, as well as fetch detailed property information.

<?php

use Inmovilla\Repository\CiudadRepository;
use Inmovilla\Repository\ZonaRepository;
use Inmovilla\Repository\PropiedadRepository;
use Inmovilla\Repository\PropiedadFichaRepository;

$cities = $cityRepository->findAll();

foreach ($cities->items as $city) {
    $zones = $zoneRepository->findByCity($city->cod_ciu);

    foreach ($zones->items as $zone) {
        $properties = $propertyRepository->findByZone($zone->cod_zona);

        foreach ($properties->items as $property) {
            $details = $propertyDetailsRepository->findOneByCodOffer($property->cod_ofer);
        }
    }
}

Extending a Repository

To add custom functionality to a repository, you can extend the base class and implement your own methods. Here’s an example of adding a method to fetch properties with an elevator:

<?php

namespace Inmovilla\Repository;

use Inmovilla\DTO\Pagination\PaginacionPropiedadesDTO;

class CustomPropertyRepository extends PropiedadRepository
{
    public function findWithElevator(int $startPosition = 1, int $numElements = 100, string $order = 'precioinmo, precioalq'): PaginacionPropiedadesDTO
    {
        $where = $this->buildWhereClause(['ascensor' => 1]);
        $response = $this->addRequest(PaginacionPropiedadesDTO::ARRAY_DATA_KEY, $startPosition, $numElements, $where, $order);
        return PaginacionPropiedadesDTO::fromArray($response);
    }
}

Example Usage

$customPropertyRepository = new CustomPropertyRepository($client);
$propertiesWithElevator = $customPropertyRepository->findWithElevator();

foreach ($propertiesWithElevator->items as $property) {
    echo "Property: Ref=" . $property->ref . PHP_EOL;
}

Using the API Client Directly

If you want to bypass the repositories, you can use the API client directly to make custom requests:

<?php

use Inmovilla\ApiClient\ApiClientConfig;
use Inmovilla\ApiClient\ApiClientFactory;
use GuzzleHttp\Client as GuzzleClient;
use GuzzleHttp\Psr7\HttpFactory;

$config = ApiClientConfig::fromIniFile('config/api.ini');
$httpClient = new GuzzleClient();
$requestFactory = new HttpFactory();

$client = ApiClientFactory::createFromConfig($config, $httpClient, $requestFactory);

$request = new Request('properties', 1, 100, 'ascensor=1', 'precioinmo, precioalq');
$requestBatch = new RequestBatch();
$requestBatch->addRequest($request);
$response = $client->sendRequest($requestBatch);

foreach ($response['properties'] as $property) {
    echo "Property: Ref=" . $property['ref'] . PHP_EOL;
}

DTOs (Data Transfer Objects)

The library uses DTOs (Data Transfer Objects) to map API responses to structured PHP objects. Below are the key DTOs and their purposes:

General DTOs

• CiudadDTO: Represents a city.
• ZonaDTO: Represents a zone within a city.

Property DTOs

• PropiedadDTO: Represents a property in a property listing.
• PropiedadFichaDTO: Represents detailed information about a specific property. This is retrieved when querying property details using its offer code.

Pagination DTOs

• PaginacionPropiedadesDTO: Handles paginated property listings.
• PaginacionCiudadesDTO: Handles paginated city data.
• PaginacionZonasDTO: Handles paginated zone data.
• PaginacionDestacadosDTO: Handles paginated "featured" properties.

---

Testing

Run PHPUnit tests to validate functionality:

./vendor/bin/phpunit --testdox
