Latest Stable Version

Sixpack

PHP client library for SeatGeak's Sixpack ab testing framework.

Installation

Simply clone the project and include sixpack.php to your PHP Project

Usage

ALL THIS IS OUT OF DATE

Basic example:

The PHP client stores a unique client id in the current user's cookie by default.

$sp = new \Seatgeek\Sixpack\Session;
$alt = $sp->participate('test', array('blue', 'red'))->getAlternative();
if ($alt == 'blue') {
    /* do something blue */
} else {
    /* do somethign red */
}

Each session has a client_id associated with it that must be preserved across requests. The PHP client handles this automatically. If you'd wish to change that behavoir, you can do so like this:

$sp = new \Seatgeek\Sixpack\Session;
$resp = $sp->participate("new-test", array("alternative-1", "alternative-2"));
store_in_database("sixpack-id", $resp->getClientId());

For future requests, create the Session using the client_id stored in the cookie:

$client_id = get_from_database("sixpack-id")
$sp = new \Seatgeek\Sixpack\Session(array('clientId' => $client_id));

$sp->convert('new-test');

Other possible options for the Session constructor are:

  • baseUrl - Sixpack Server's location on the web
  • cookiePrefix - you can set a different prefix for the cookie if you like. Default is sixpack

If you'd like to force the Sixpack server to return a specific alternative for development or testing, you can do so by passing a query parameter named sixpack-force to that page being tested.
