# Installation
|
|
|
|
This page contains information about installing the Google APIs Client Library for PHP.
|
|
|
|
## Requirements
|
|
|
|
* PHP version 5.4 or greater.
|
|
|
|
## Obtaining the client library
|
|
|
|
There are two options for obtaining the files for the client library.
|
|
|
|
### Using Composer
|
|
|
|
You can install the library by adding it as a dependency to your composer.json.
|
|
|
|
```json
|
|
"require": {
|
|
"google/apiclient": "^2.0"
|
|
}
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### Downloading from GitHub
|
|
|
|
Follow [the instructions in the README](https://github.com/google/google-api-php-client#download-the-release) to download the package locally.
|
|
|
|
### What to do with the files
|
|
|
|
After obtaining the files, include the autloader. If you used Composer, your require statement will look like this:
|
|
|
|
```php
|
|
require_once '/path/to/your-project/vendor/autoload.php';
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
If you downloaded the package separately, your require statement will look like this:
|
|
|
|
```php
|
|
require_once '/path/to/google-api-php-client/vendor/autoload.php';
|
|
``` |
