This example shows how to build Presshub template and map template fields.

// Create Presshub template.
$template = Presshub\Template::create()
  ->setTitle('Your Article Title')
  ->setSubTitle('Your Article Subtitle')
  ->setCanonicalURL( 'http://example.com/your-article-url.html' )

  ->setKeywords(['Keyword1', 'Keyword2', 'Keyword3'])
  ->setTemplate( 'basic' )

    Presshub\Template\Component::create()
      ->setMap('category')
      ->setValue('Test Category')
      ->setProps()
  )
  ->addComponent(
    Presshub\Template\Component::create()
      ->setMap('byline')
      ->setValue('By Author Name')
      ->setProps()
  )
  ->addComponent(
    Presshub\Template\Component::create()
      ->setMap('featured_image')
      ->setValue('URL')
      ->setProps([
        'Caption'      => 'Image caption',
        'Photographer' => 'Photo by Name',
      ])
  )
  ->addComponent(
    Presshub\Template\Component::create()
      ->setMap('body')
      ->setValue('<p>HTML content</p>')
      ->setProps()
  );

Presshub Client

$api_key_id = "YOUR_PRESSHUB_API_KEY";

// maximum amount of time in seconds to which the execution of individual
// cURL extension function calls will be limited. Note that the value 
// for this setting should include the value for $connect_timeout.
$timeout = 400;

// Maximum amount of time in seconds that is allowed to make the connection 
// to the server. It can be set to 0 to disable this limit, 
// but this is inadvisable in a production environment.
$connect_timeout = 0;

// Defaults to https://api.presshub.io/v1 However in some cases we create
// separate servers for premium clients.
$endpoint = "https://api.presshub.io/v1";

// Initialize Presshub Client object.
$client = new Presshub\Client($api_key, $timeout, $connect_timeout, $endpoint);

Preview Article

// Generate previewable files, more services can be added.
// Please follow example: 'FacebookIA' => []
$result = $client->setTemplate($template)
  ->setServices([
      'AppleNews' => [],
      'Twitter'   => [
        // When empty article title will be used.
        "message" => "This is how you could override the title"
      ]
  ])
  ->preview()
  ->execute();

var_dump($result);

Publish Article

// Publish article to AppleNews and Twitter.
// More can be added. See Get Services callback.

$result = $client->setTemplate($template)
  ->setServices([
      'AppleNews' => [],
      'Twitter'   => [
        // When empty article title will be used.
        "message" => "This is how you could override the title",
        // Specify images - up to 5 supported.
        "media"   => [
          "https://images.unsplash.com/photo-1451153378752-16ef2b36ad05?dpr=1&auto=format&fit=crop&w=1500&h=1004&q=80&cs=tinysrgb&crop=",

        ],
      ]
  ])
  ->publish()
  ->execute();

var_dump($result);
