Sending events to Amazon CloudWatch Events with AWS SDK for PHP Version 3
CloudWatch Events delivers a near real-time stream of system events that describe changes in Amazon Web Services (AWS) resources to any of various targets. Using simple rules, you can match events and route them to one or more target functions or streams.
The following examples show how to:
-
Create a rule using PutRule.
-
Add targets to a rule using PutTargets.
-
Send custom events to CloudWatch Events using PutEvents.
All the example code for the AWS SDK for PHP is available here on
GitHub
Credentials
Before running the example code, configure your AWS credentials, as described in Credentials. Then import the AWS SDK for PHP, as described in Basic usage.
Create a rule
Imports
require 'vendor/autoload.php'; use Aws\Exception\AwsException;
Sample Code
$client = new Aws\cloudwatchevents\cloudwatcheventsClient([ 'profile' => 'default', 'region' => 'us-west-2', 'version' => '2015-10-07' ]); try { $result = $client->putRule([ 'Name' => 'DEMO_EVENT', // REQUIRED 'RoleArn' => 'IAM_ROLE_ARN', 'ScheduleExpression' => 'rate(5 minutes)', 'State' => 'ENABLED', ]); var_dump($result); } catch (AwsException $e) { // output error message if fails error_log($e->getMessage()); }
Add targets to a rule
Imports
require 'vendor/autoload.php'; use Aws\Exception\AwsException;
Sample Code
$client = new Aws\cloudwatchevents\cloudwatcheventsClient([ 'profile' => 'default', 'region' => 'us-west-2', 'version' => '2015-10-07' ]); try { $result = $client->putTargets([ 'Rule' => 'DEMO_EVENT', // REQUIRED 'Targets' => [ // REQUIRED [ 'Arn' => 'LAMBDA_FUNCTION_ARN', // REQUIRED 'Id' => 'myCloudWatchEventsTarget' // REQUIRED ], ], ]); var_dump($result); } catch (AwsException $e) { // output error message if fails error_log($e->getMessage()); }
Send custom events
Imports
require 'vendor/autoload.php'; use Aws\Exception\AwsException;
Sample Code
$client = new Aws\cloudwatchevents\cloudwatcheventsClient([ 'profile' => 'default', 'region' => 'us-west-2', 'version' => '2015-10-07' ]); try { $result = $client->putEvents([ 'Entries' => [ // REQUIRED [ 'Detail' => '<string>', 'DetailType' => '<string>', 'Resources' => ['<string>'], 'Source' => '<string>', 'Time' => time() ], ], ]); var_dump($result); } catch (AwsException $e) { // output error message if fails error_log($e->getMessage()); }
