# Add high-performance video to your PHP application
Use our API and components to handle embedding, storing, and streaming video in your PHP application
## Installation

We publish Mux PHP to Packagist. You should depend on Mux PHP by adding us to your `composer.json` file.

```php
composer require mux/mux-php
```

## Quickstart

To start, you'll need a Mux access token. Once you've got that, you're off to the races!

```php
// Authentication Setup
$config = MuxPhp\Configuration::getDefaultConfiguration()
    ->setUsername(getenv('MUX_TOKEN_ID'))
    ->setPassword(getenv('MUX_TOKEN_SECRET'));

// API Client Initialization
$assetsApi = new MuxPhp\Api\AssetsApi(
    new GuzzleHttp\Client(),
    $config
);

// Create Asset Request
$input = new MuxPhp\Models\InputSettings(["url" => "https://storage.googleapis.com/muxdemofiles/mux-video-intro.mp4"]);
$createAssetRequest = new MuxPhp\Models\CreateAssetRequest(["input" => $input, "playback_policy" => [MuxPhp\Models\PlaybackPolicy::PUBLIC_PLAYBACK_POLICY] ]);

// Ingest
$result = $assetsApi->createAsset($createAssetRequest);

// Print URL
print "Playback URL: https://stream.mux.com/" . $result->getData()->getPlaybackIds()[0]->getId() . ".m3u8\n"
```
