Domainnameapi Sdk Laravel Package
upmind/domainnameapi-sdk
A PHP SDK for the DomainNameAPI service, giving Laravel and PHP apps a clean client for domain registration, transfers, renewals, availability checks, and contact management. Wraps API requests and responses so you can integrate registrar operations without writing raw HTTP calls.
upmind/domainnameapi-sdk is a PHP client for the DomainNameAPI, providing a clean, object-oriented wrapper around its domain registrar services. It lets applications register, transfer, renew, and manage domain names programmatically, handling request signing, response parsing, and error handling so you can integrate registrar functionality without writing raw API calls.
- Register, renew, transfer, and delete domains via a fluent API
- Query availability, pricing, and TLD information
- Manage contacts, nameservers, and DNS records
- Built-in response objects with structured error handling
- Composer-installable with Laravel-friendly configuration
Frequently asked questions about Domainnameapi Sdk
- How do I install upmind/domainnameapi-sdk with Composer?
- Install it with Composer using composer require upmind/domainnameapi-sdk. Make sure ext-soap is enabled in the PHP runtime that will execute the client. The package is framework-agnostic, so there is no Laravel installer hook or publishable config to run.
- Does this package work with Laravel 10 and 11?
- Yes, it should run on Laravel 10 or 11 on PHP 8.1+ because it is a framework-agnostic generated SOAP client, not a Laravel package. There is no service provider, facade, config file, or container binding shipped with it. You integrate it by wrapping the generated classes behind your own application interface and binding that in Laravel.
- Do I need a Laravel service provider or config file for this SDK?
- No, the SDK does not ship a Laravel service provider or config file. You create your own config entry for credentials and endpoint, then bind a single wrapper implementation as a singleton. Keep the generated SOAP classes out of controllers, jobs, and models by depending on your own DomainRegistrar-style interface.
- What PHP extension is required for upmind/domainnameapi-sdk?
- The runtime dependency is ext-soap, so confirm it is compiled into every environment, including queue workers and CI. It is not enabled by default on all PHP base images. A missing SOAP extension will fail at runtime even if Composer installation succeeds.
- Is there a sandbox or OTE environment for testing DomainNameAPI integrations?
- The package documentation does not establish a guaranteed sandbox or OTE environment, so confirm this with DomainNameApi.com before committing to delivery. Sandbox availability and behavioral fidelity, especially failure codes, are the biggest determinants of integration risk. Use the sandbox for contract verification and stub your own wrapper for fast tests.
- How should I handle the WSDL in production?
- Cache the WSDL locally and pin the file rather than fetching a remote URL on every request. A remote WSDL fetch is a runtime single point of failure and a silent breaking-change vector when the upstream file changes. Treat WSDL regeneration as a deliberate upgrade and review generated class changes before deploying.
- Can I use PSR-3 logging with Laravel's logger?
- Yes, the SDK accepts a PSR-3 logger, so you can pass a Laravel LogManager channel or logger instance directly. That gives per-call visibility into SOAP request and response envelopes without custom instrumentation. Use it to log operation names and result codes while redacting credentials and sensitive contact data.
- Are domain registrations and transfers idempotent and safe to retry?
- Do not assume idempotency on the registrar side; registrations and transfers are billable, stateful, and partially irreversible. The SDK is a thin SOAP wrapper and should not be trusted to deduplicate retries for you. Your application layer should own operation keys, dedupe on order ID, and reconcile status before retrying a timed-out call.
- How do I test code that uses upmind/domainnameapi-sdk?
- Define a narrow port or interface around the operations you use, then stub that interface in unit tests instead of mocking generated SOAP classes. SOAP clients are awkward to mock, and the generated code is not designed for test doubles. Use the vendor sandbox, if available, for contract verification and keep fixtures for your own wrapper.
- Is upmind/domainnameapi-sdk actively maintained and safe to depend on?
- Treat it as vendored third-party source rather than community-supported OSS: the repository has zero stars, zero dependents, and single-vendor maintenance. Pin an exact version, commit the lockfile, and assume you may need to fork it. Wrap the generated classes aggressively because WSDL regeneration can rename or move classes without semver protection.
