Installation

$ composer require ebics-api/ebics-client-php

Initialize client

You will need to have this information from your Bank: HostID, HostURL, PartnerID, UserID

<?php
use EbicsApi\Ebics\Factories\KeyringFactory;
use EbicsApi\Ebics\Services\FileKeyringManager;
use EbicsApi\Ebics\Models\Bank;
use EbicsApi\Ebics\Models\User;
use EbicsApi\Ebics\EbicsClient;
use EbicsApi\Ebics\Models\X509\BankX509Generator;

// Prepare `workspace` dir in the __PATH_TO_WORKSPACES_DIR__ manually.
// "__EBICS_VERSION__" should have value "VERSION_30" for EBICS 3.0
$keyringPath = __PATH_TO_WORKSPACES_DIR__ . '/workspace/keyring.json';
$keyringManager = new FileKeyringManager();
if (is_file($keyringPath)) {
    $keyring = $keyringManager->loadKeyring($keyringPath, __PASSWORD__, __EBICS_VERSION__);
} else {
    $keyring = $keyringManager->createKeyring(__EBICS_VERSION__);
    $keyring->setPassword(__PASSWORD__);
}
$bank = new Bank(__HOST_ID__, __HOST_URL__);
// Use __IS_CERTIFIED__ true for EBICS 3.0 and/or French banks, otherwise use false.
if(__IS_CERTIFIED__) {
    $certificateGenerator = (new BankX509Generator());
    $certificateGenerator->setCertificateOptionsByBank($bank);
    $keyring->setCertificateGenerator($certificateGenerator);
}
$user = new User(__PARTNER_ID__, __USER_ID__);
$client = new EbicsClient($bank, $user, $keyring);
if (!is_file($keyringPath)) {
    $client->createUserSignatures();
    $keyringManager->saveKeyring($client->getKeyring(), $keyringPath);
}

Global process and interaction with Bank Department

1. Create and store your 3 keys and send initialization request.

<?php

use EbicsApi\Ebics\Contracts\EbicsResponseExceptionInterface;

/* @var \EbicsApi\Ebics\EbicsClient $client */

try {
    $client->executeStandardOrder(new \EbicsApi\Ebics\Orders\INI());
    /* @var \EbicsApi\Ebics\Services\FileKeyringManager $keyringManager */
    /* @var \EbicsApi\Ebics\Models\Keyring $keyring */
    $keyringManager->saveKeyring($keyring, $keyringPath);
} catch (EbicsResponseExceptionInterface $exception) {
    echo sprintf(
        "INI request failed. EBICS Error code : %s\nMessage : %s\nMeaning : %s",
        $exception->getResponseCode(),
        $exception->getMessage(),
        $exception->getMeaning()
    );
}

try {
    $client->executeStandardOrder(new \EbicsApi\Ebics\Orders\HIA());
    $keyringManager->saveKeyring($keyring, $keyringPath);
} catch (EbicsResponseExceptionInterface $exception) {
    echo sprintf(
        "HIA request failed. EBICS Error code : %s\nMessage : %s\nMeaning : %s",
        $exception->getResponseCode(),
        $exception->getMessage(),
        $exception->getMeaning()
    );
}

2. Generate a EBICS letter

/* @var \EbicsApi\Ebics\EbicsClient $client */
$ebicsBankLetter = new \EbicsApi\Ebics\EbicsBankLetter();

$bankLetter = $ebicsBankLetter->prepareBankLetter(
    $client->getBank(),
    $client->getUser(),
    $client->getKeyring()
);

$pdf = $ebicsBankLetter->formatBankLetter($bankLetter, $ebicsBankLetter->createPdfBankLetterFormatter());

3. Wait for the bank validation and access activation.

4. Fetch the bank keys.

try {
    /* @var \EbicsApi\Ebics\EbicsClient $client */
    $client->executeInitializationOrder(new \EbicsApi\Ebics\Orders\HPB());
    /* @var \EbicsApi\Ebics\Services\FileKeyringManager $keyringManager */
    /* @var \EbicsApi\Ebics\Models\Keyring $keyring */
    $keyringManager->saveKeyring($keyring, $keyringPath);
} catch (EbicsResponseExceptionInterface $exception) {
    echo sprintf(
        "HPB request failed. EBICS Error code : %s\nMessage : %s\nMeaning : %s",
        $exception->getResponseCode(),
        $exception->getMessage(),
        $exception->getMeaning()
    );
}
