The OpenTok PHP SDK provides methods for:
Composer helps manage dependencies for PHP projects. Find more info here: http://getcomposer.org
Add this package (opentok/opentok
) to your composer.json
file, or run the following at the
command line:
$ composer require opentok/opentok ^4.0
This package follows the PSR-4 autoloading standard. If you are using composer to install, you just require the generated autoloader:
require "<projectpath>/vendor/autoload.php";
Once the files of the SDK are loaded, you initialize an OpenTok\OpenTok
object with your own API
Key and API Secret.
use OpenTok\OpenTok;
$opentok = new OpenTok($apiKey, $apiSecret);
The OpenTok\OpenTok
object just allow for some overrides of values when special needs arise, such as
needing to point to a different datacenter or change the timeout of the underlying HTTP client. For
these situations, you can pass an array of additional options as the third parameter.
We allow the following options:
apiUrl
- Change the domain that the SDK points to. Useful when needing to select a specific datacenter
or point to a mock version of the API for testingclient
- Custom API client that inherits from OpenTok\Utils\Client
, useful for customizing an HTTP clienttimeout
- Change the default HTTP timeout, which defaults to forever. You can pass a number of seconds to change the timeout.use OpenTok\OpenTok;
use MyCompany\CustomOpenTokClient;
$options = [
'apiUrl' => 'https://custom.domain.com/',
'client' => new CustomOpenTokClient(),
'timeout' => 10,
]
$opentok = new OpenTok($apiKey, $apiSecret, $options);
To create an OpenTok Session, use the createSession($options)
method of the
OpenTok\OpenTok
class. The $options
parameter is an optional array used to specify the following:
Setting whether the session will use the OpenTok Media Router or attempt to send streams directly between clients.
Setting whether the session will automatically create archives (implies use of routed session)
Specifying a location hint.
The getSessionId()
method of the OpenTok\Session
instance returns the session ID,
which you use to identify the session in the OpenTok client libraries.
use OpenTok\MediaMode;
use OpenTok\ArchiveMode;
// Create a session that attempts to use peer-to-peer streaming:
$session = $opentok->createSession();
// A session that uses the OpenTok Media Router, which is required for archiving:
$session = $opentok->createSession(array( 'mediaMode' => MediaMode::ROUTED ));
// A session with a location hint:
$session = $opentok->createSession(array( 'location' => '12.34.56.78' ));
// An automatically archived session:
$sessionOptions = array(
'archiveMode' => ArchiveMode::ALWAYS,
'mediaMode' => MediaMode::ROUTED
);
$session = $opentok->createSession($sessionOptions);
// Store this sessionId in the database for later use
$sessionId = $session->getSessionId();
Once a Session is created, you can start generating Tokens for clients to use when connecting to it.
You can generate a token either by calling the generateToken($sessionId, $options)
method of the
OpenTok\OpenTok
class, or by calling the generateToken($options)
method on the OpenTok\Session
instance after creating it. The $options
parameter is an optional array used to set the role,
expire time, and connection data of the Token. For layout control in archives and broadcasts,
the initial layout class list of streams published from connections using this token can be set as well.
use OpenTok\Session;
use OpenTok\Role;
// Generate a Token from just a sessionId (fetched from a database)
$token = $opentok->generateToken($sessionId);
// Generate a Token by calling the method on the Session (returned from createSession)
$token = $session->generateToken();
// Set some options in a token
$token = $session->generateToken(array(
'role' => Role::MODERATOR,
'expireTime' => time()+(7 * 24 * 60 * 60), // in one week
'data' => 'name=Johnny',
'initialLayoutClassList' => array('focus')
));
You can get information about a stream by calling the getStream($sessionId, $streamId)
method of the
OpenTok\OpenTok
class.
use OpenTok\Session;
// Get stream info from just a sessionId (fetched from a database)
$stream = $opentok->getStream($sessionId, $streamId);
// Stream properties
$stream->id; // string with the stream ID
$stream->videoType; // string with the video type
$stream->name; // string with the name
$stream->layoutClassList; // array with the layout class list
You can get information about all the streams in a session by calling the listStreams($sessionId)
method of the
OpenTok\OpenTok
class.
use OpenTok\Session;
// Get list of streams from just a sessionId (fetched from a database)
$streamList = $opentok->listStreams($sessionId);
$streamList->totalCount(); // total count
You can only archive sessions that use the OpenTok Media Router (sessions with the media mode set to routed).
You can start the recording of an OpenTok Session using the startArchive($sessionId, $name)
method
of the OpenTok\OpenTok
class. This will return an OpenTok\Archive
instance. The parameter
$archiveOptions
is an optional array and is used to assign a name, whether to record audio and/or
video, the desired output mode for the Archive, and the desired resolution if applicable. Note that you can only start an
Archive on a Session that has clients connected.
// Create a simple archive of a session
$archive = $opentok->startArchive($sessionId);
// Create an archive using custom options
$archiveOptions = array(
'name' => 'Important Presentation', // default: null
'hasAudio' => true, // default: true
'hasVideo' => true, // default: true
'outputMode' => OutputMode::COMPOSED, // default: OutputMode::COMPOSED
'resolution' => '1280x720' // default: '640x480'
);
$archive = $opentok->startArchive($sessionId, $archiveOptions);
// Store this archiveId in the database for later use
$archiveId = $archive->id;
If you set the outputMode
option to OutputMode::INDIVIDUAL
, it causes each stream in the archive to be recorded to its own individual file. Please note that you cannot specify the resolution when you set the outputMode
option to OutputMode::INDIVIDUAL
. The OutputMode::COMPOSED
setting (the default) causes all streams in the archive to be recorded to a single (composed) file.
Note that you can also create an automatically archived session, by passing in ArchiveMode::ALWAYS
as the archiveMode
key of the options
parameter passed into the OpenTok->createSession()
method (see "Creating Sessions," above).
You can stop the recording of a started archive using the stopArchive($archiveId)
method of the
OpenTok\OpenTok
object. You can also do this using the stop()
method of the
OpenTok\Archive
instance.
// Stop an Archive from an archiveId (fetched from database)
$opentok->stopArchive($archiveId);
// Stop an Archive from an Archive instance (returned from startArchive)
$archive->stop();
To get an OpenTok\Archive
instance (and all the information about it) from an archive ID, use the
getArchive($archiveId)
method of the OpenTok\OpenTok
class.
$archive = $opentok->getArchive($archiveId);
To delete an Archive, you can call the deleteArchive($archiveId)
method of the OpenTok\OpenTok
class or the delete()
method of an OpenTok\Archive
instance.
// Delete an Archive from an archiveId (fetched from database)
$opentok->deleteArchive($archiveId);
// Delete an Archive from an Archive instance (returned from startArchive, getArchive)
$archive->delete();
You can also get a list of all the Archives you've created (up to 1000) with your API Key. This is
done using the listArchives($offset, $count, $sessionId)
method of the OpenTok/OpenTok
class. The parameters
$offset
, $count
, and $sessionId
are optional and can help you paginate through the results, and subset the
data by a specific session. This will return an instance of the OpenTok\ArchiveList
class.
$archiveList = $opentok->listArchives();
// Get an array of OpenTok\Archive instances
$archives = $archiveList->getItems();
// Get the total number of Archives for this API Key
$totalCount = $archiveList->totalCount();
For composed archives, you can change the layout dynamically, using the setArchiveLayout($archiveId, $layoutType)
method:
use OpenTok\OpenTok;
$layout = Layout::getPIP(); // Or use another get method of the Layout class.
$opentok->setArchiveLayout($archiveId, $layout);
You can set the initial layout class for a client's streams by setting the layout
option when
you create the token for the client, using the OpenTok->generateToken()
method or the
Session->generateToken()
method. And you can change the layout classes for a stream
by calling the OpenTok->updateStream()
method.
Setting the layout of composed archives is optional. By default, composed archives use the "best fit" layout (see Customizing the video layout for composed archives).
For more information on archiving, see the OpenTok archiving developer guide.
You can only start live streaming broadcasts for sessions that use the OpenTok Media Router (sessions with the media mode set to routed).
Start the live streaming broadcast of an OpenTok Session using the
startBroadcast($sessionId, $options)
method of the OpenTok\OpenTok
class.
This will return an OpenTok\Broadcast
instance. The $options
parameter is
an array used to define the broadcast streams, assign broadcast options such as layout,
maxDuration, resolution, and more.
// Define options for the broadcast
$options = [
'layout' => Layout::getBestFit(),
'maxDuration' => 5400,
'resolution' => '1280x720',
'output' => [
'hls' => [
'dvr' => true,
'lowLatency' => false
],
'rtmp' => [
[
'id' => 'foo',
'serverUrl' => 'rtmps://myfooserver/myfooapp',
'streamName' => 'myfoostream'
],
[
'id' => 'bar',
'serverUrl' => 'rtmps://myfooserver/mybarapp',
'streamName' => 'mybarstream'
],
]
]
];
// Start a live streaming broadcast of a session
$broadcast = $opentok->startBroadcast($sessionId, $options);
// Store the broadcast ID in the database for later use
$broadcastId = $broadcast->id;
You can stop the live streaming broadcast using the stopBroadcast($broadcastId)
method of the
OpenTok\OpenTok
object. You can also do this using the stop()
method of the
OpenTok\Broadcast
instance.
// Stop a broadcast from an broadcast ID (fetched from database)
$opentok->stopBroadcast($broadcastId);
// Stop a broadcast from an Broadcast instance (returned from startBroadcast)
$broadcast->stop();
To get an OpenTok\Broadcast
instance (and all the information about it) from a broadcast ID,
use the getBroadcast($broadcastId)
method of the OpenTok\OpenTok
class.
$broadcast = $opentok->getBroadcast($broadcastId);
You can set change the layout dynamically, using the
OpenTok->updateBroadcastLayout($broadcastId, $layout)
method:
use OpenTok\OpenTok;
$layout = Layout::getPIP(); // Or use another get method of the Layout class.
$opentok->updateBroadcastLayout($broadcastId, $layout);
You can use the Layout
class to set the layout types:
Layout::getHorizontalPresentation()
, Layout::getVerticalPresentation()
, Layout::getPIP()
,
Layout::getBestFit()
, Layout::createCustom()
.
$layoutType = Layout::getHorizontalPresentation();
$opentok->setArchiveLayout($archiveId, $layoutType);
// For custom Layouts, you can do the following
$options = array(
'stylesheet' => 'stream.instructor {position: absolute; width: 100%; height:50%;}'
);
$layoutType = Layout::createCustom($options);
$opentok->setArchiveLayout($archiveId, $layoutType);
You can also set the Screenshare Layout by calling the setScreenshareType()
method on a layout object.
$layout = Layout::getBestFit(); // Other types are not currently supported
$layout->setScreenshareType(Layout::LAYOUT_VERTICAL);
You can set the initial layout class for a client's streams by setting the layout
option when
you create the token for the client, using the OpenTok->generateToken()
method or the
Session->generateToken()
method. And you can change the layout classes for a stream
by calling the OpenTok->updateStream()
method.
Setting the layout of live streaming broadcasts is optional. By default, broadcasts use the "best fit" layout (see Configuring video layout for OpenTok live streaming broadcasts).
For more information on live streaming broadcasts, see the OpenTok live streaming broadcasts developer guide.
Your application server can disconnect a client from an OpenTok session by calling the forceDisconnect($sessionId, $connectionId)
method of the OpenTok\OpenTok
class.
use OpenTok\OpenTok;
// Force disconnect a client connection
$opentok->forceDisconnect($sessionId, $connectionId);
You can force the publisher of a specific stream to stop publishing audio using the
Opentok.forceMuteStream($sessionId, $stream)
method.
You can force the publisher of all streams in a session (except for an optional list of streams)
to stop publishing audio using the Opentok.forceMuteAll($sessionId, $excludedStreamIds)
method.
You can then disable the mute state of the session by calling the
Opentok.DisableForceMute(sessionId)
or Opentok.DisableForceMuteAsync(sessionId)
method.
Once a Session is created, you can send signals to everyone in the session or to a specific connection.
You can send a signal by calling the signal($sessionId, $payload, $connectionId)
method of the
OpenTok\OpenTok
class.
The $sessionId
parameter is the session ID of the session.
The $payload
parameter is an associative array used to set the
following:
data
(string) -- The data string for the signal. You can send a maximum of 8kB.
type
(string) -- — (Optional) The type string for the signal. You can send a maximum of 128 characters, and only the following characters are allowed: A-Z, a-z, numbers (0-9), '-', '_', and '~'.
The $connectionId
parameter is an optional string used to specify the connection ID of
a client connected to the session. If you specify this value, the signal is sent to
the specified client. Otherwise, the signal is sent to all clients connected to the session.
use OpenTok\OpenTok;
// Send a signal to a specific client
$signalPayload = array(
'data' => 'some signal message',
'type' => 'signal type'
);
$connectionId = 'da9cb410-e29b-4c2d-ab9e-fe65bf83fcaf';
$opentok->signal($sessionId, $signalPayload, $connectionId);
// Send a signal to everyone in the session
$signalPayload = array(
'data' => 'some signal message',
'type' => 'signal type'
);
$opentok->signal($sessionId, $signalPayload);
For more information, see the OpenTok signaling developer guide.
You can add an audio-only stream from an external third-party SIP gateway using the SIP Interconnect feature. This requires a SIP URI, the session ID you wish to add the audio-only stream to, and a token to connect to that session ID.
To initiate a SIP call, call the dial($sessionId, $token, $sipUri, $options)
method of the
OpenTok\OpenTok
class:
$sipUri = 'sip:[email protected];transport=tls';
$options = array(
'headers' => array(
'X-CUSTOM-HEADER' => 'headerValue'
),
'auth' => array(
'username' => 'username',
'password' => 'password'
),
'secure' => true,
'from' => '[email protected]'
);
$opentok->dial($sessionId, $token, $sipUri, $options);
For more information, see the OpenTok SIP Interconnect developer guide.
You can start an Audio Connector WebSocket
by calling the connectAudio()
method of the
OpenTok\OpenTok
class.

Reference documentation is available at https://tokbox.com/developer/sdks/php/reference/index.html.
You need an OpenTok API key and API secret, which you can obtain by logging into your Vonage Video API account.
The OpenTok PHP SDK requires PHP 7.2 or higher.
See the Releases page for details about each release.
Changes in v2.2.1:
The default setting for the createSession()
method is to create a session with the media mode set
to relayed. In previous versions of the SDK, the default setting was to use the OpenTok Media Router
(media mode set to routed). In a relayed session, clients will attempt to send streams directly
between each other (peer-to-peer); if clients cannot connect due to firewall restrictions, the
session uses the OpenTok TURN server to relay audio-video streams.
Changes in v2.2.0:
This version of the SDK includes support for working with OpenTok archives.
The names of many methods of the API have changed. Many method names have changed to use camel case, including the following:
\OpenTok\OpenTok->createSession()
\OpenTok\OpenTok->generateToken()
Note also that the options
parameter of the OpenTok->createSession()
method has a mediaMode
property instead of a p2p
property.
The API_Config class has been removed. Store your OpenTok API key and API secret in code outside of the SDK files.
See the reference documentation http://www.tokbox.com/opentok/libraries/server/php/reference/index.html and in the docs directory of the SDK.
This library makes use of two code quality tools, plus a full PHPUnit test suite.
