Getting Started

Installation

To install TMI, you need to be using Composer in your project. For more details about Composer, see the .

composer require ghostzero/tmi

Usage

After installation you are ready to start using the TMI Client in your PHP application. You can use TMI without or with an OAuth Token. Just follow the examples below:

Without OAuth Token

TIP

Please note that you cannot send any messages without OAuth Token. You can get an OAuth Token with the (which is one of the best known generators to generate a Twitch OAuth Token).

use GhostZero\Tmi\Client;
use GhostZero\Tmi\ClientOptions;
use GhostZero\Tmi\Events\Twitch\MessageEvent;

$client = new Client(new ClientOptions([
    'connection' => [
        'secure' => true,
        'reconnect' => true,
        'rejoin' => true,
    ],
    'channels' => ['ghostzero']
]));

$client->on(MessageEvent::class, function (MessageEvent $e) {
    print "{$e->tags['display-name']}: {$e->message}";
});

$client->connect();

With OAuth Token

use GhostZero\Tmi\Client;
use GhostZero\Tmi\ClientOptions;
use GhostZero\Tmi\Events\Twitch\MessageEvent;

$client = new Client(new ClientOptions([
    'options' => ['debug' => true],
    'connection' => [
        'secure' => true,
        'reconnect' => true,
        'rejoin' => true,
    ],
    'identity' => [
        'username' => 'ghostzero',
        'password' => 'oauth:...',
    ],
    'channels' => ['ghostzero']
]));

$client->on(MessageEvent::class, function (MessageEvent $e) use ($client) {
    if ($e->self) return;

    if (strtolower($e->message) === '!hello') {
        $client->say($e->channel->getName(), "@{$e->user}, heya!");
    }
});

$client->connect();
