Google API – Get contact list

Google API – Get contact list:
Google API - Get contact list
Google API – Get contact list


In our new tutorial I am going to tell you about inviting friends. I think that this is the most important part for every website, a key to success. Today I will show you how to create simple and effective Gmail contact importer using OAuth authorization and API. Also, I will tell about obtaining Google API access too.

As the first step – lets prepare our own project in Google API console, please open this link and create your project. Then we need goto ‘API Access’ section and click ‘Create an OAuth 2.0 client ID’ button. Now we should fill a name for our new project:
Google Contacts API - step 1
Click next, and, at the second step we should set URL of our destination page:
Google Contacts API - step 2
Finally, we’ve got our Client ID and secret (or – consumer key and secret):
Google Contacts API - step 3
Now – download the source files and lets start coding !

Step 1. PHP

Now, please create empty index.php file and put next code:

index.php

<?php

// disable warnings
if (version_compare(phpversion(), "5.3.0", ">=")  == 1)
  error_reporting(E_ALL & ~E_NOTICE & ~E_DEPRECATED);
else
  error_reporting(E_ALL & ~E_NOTICE); 

$sClientId = 'YOUR_GOOGLE_CLIENT_ID';
$sClientSecret = 'YOUR_GOOGLE_CLIENT_SECRET';
$sCallback = 'http://www.script-tutorials.com/demos/291/index.php'; // callback url, don't forget to change it to your!
$iMaxResults = 20; // max results
$sStep = 'auth'; // current step

// include GmailOath library  https://code.google.com/p/rspsms/source/browse/trunk/system/plugins/GmailContacts/GmailOath.php?r=11
include_once('classes/GmailOath.php');

session_start();

// prepare new instances of GmailOath  and GmailGetContacts
$oAuth = new GmailOath($sClientId, $sClientSecret, $argarray, false, $sCallback);
$oGetContacts = new GmailGetContacts();

if ($_GET && $_GET['oauth_token']) {

    $sStep = 'fetch_contacts'; // fetch contacts step

    // decode request token and secret
    $sDecodedToken = $oAuth->rfc3986_decode($_GET['oauth_token']);
    $sDecodedTokenSecret = $oAuth->rfc3986_decode($_SESSION['oauth_token_secret']);

    // get 'oauth_verifier'
    $oAuthVerifier = $oAuth->rfc3986_decode($_GET['oauth_verifier']);

    // prepare access token, decode it, and obtain contact list
    $oAccessToken = $oGetContacts->get_access_token($oAuth, $sDecodedToken, $sDecodedTokenSecret, $oAuthVerifier, false, true, true);
    $sAccessToken = $oAuth->rfc3986_decode($oAccessToken['oauth_token']);
    $sAccessTokenSecret = $oAuth->rfc3986_decode($oAccessToken['oauth_token_secret']);
    $aContacts = $oGetContacts->GetContacts($oAuth, $sAccessToken, $sAccessTokenSecret, false, true, $iMaxResults);

    // turn array with contacts into html string
    $sContacts = $sContactName = '';
    foreach($aContacts as $k => $aInfo) {
        $sContactName = end($aInfo['title']);
        $aLast = end($aContacts[$k]);
        foreach($aLast as $aEmail) {
            $sContacts .= '<p>' . $sContactName . '(' . $aEmail['address'] . ')</p>';
        }
    }
} else {
    // prepare access token and set it into session
    $oRequestToken = $oGetContacts->get_request_token($oAuth, false, true, true);
    $_SESSION['oauth_token'] = $oRequestToken['oauth_token'];
    $_SESSION['oauth_token_secret'] = $oRequestToken['oauth_token_secret'];
}

As you can see – in the beginning we include ‘GmailOath.php’ library. This library you can download here. Once you have downloaded it – pay attention to the code. As you can see – the main functionality is separated into 2 sections: authorization and fetching of contact list. As usual – I put my comments in this code to better understanding.
When we click authorization button, it will open google authorization page, where we should grant access for our application to get our contact list:

Learn Composition from the Photography of Henri Cartier-Bresson

“Do you see it?” This question is a photographic mantra. Myron Barnstone , my mentor, repeats this question every day with the hopes that we do “see it.” This obvious question reminds me that even though I have seen Cartier-Bresson’s prints and read his books, there are major parts of his work which remain hidden from public view. Beneath the surface of perfectly timed snap shots is a design sensibility that is rarely challenged by contemporary photographers. Henri Cartier-Bresson. © Martine Franck Words To Know 1:1.5 Ratio: The 35mm negative measures 36mm x 24mm. Mathematically it can be reduced to a 3:2 ratio. Reduced even further it will be referred to as the 1:1.5 Ratio or the 1.5 Rectangle. Eyes: The frame of an image is created by two vertical lines and two horizontal lines. The intersection of these lines is called an eye. The four corners of a negative can be called the “eyes.” This is extremely important because the diagonals connecting these lines will form the breakdown ...
