I'm trying to write a wrapper around an api my company is developing. It's restful, and using Postman I can send a post request to an endpoint like http://subdomain.dev.myapi.com/api/v1/auth/
with a username and password as POST data and I am given back a token. All works as expected. Now, when I try and do the same from PHP I get back a GuzzleHttp\Psr7\Response
object, but can't seem to find the token anywhere inside it as I did with the Postman request.
The relevant code looks like:
$client = new Client(['base_uri' => 'http://companysub.dev.myapi.com/']);
$response = $client->post('api/v1/auth/', [
'form_params' => [
'username' => $user,
'password' => $password
]
]);
var_dump($response); //or $resonse->getBody(), etc...
The output of the code above looks something like (warning, incoming wall of text):
object(guzzlehttp\psr7\response)#36 (6) {

The output from Postman was something like:
{
"data" : {
"token" "fasdfasf-asfasdfasdf-sfasfasf"
}
}
Clearly I'm missing something about working with the response objects in Guzzle. The Guzzle response indicates a 200 status code on the request, so I'm not sure exactly what I need to do to retrieve the returned data.
