Generate and Download API SDKs for eBay

Select the API and Version below, then press the Download Button to receive your zipped SDK.
Please note that the default data converter within the Service Proxy for all APIs has been changed from ISO-8859-1 to UTF-8 as of the SDK releases for Trading (1039), Shopping (1027). You can use an alternative data converter.

Data Converter

Sometimes you want to change values - passed to the request or received by getters.
The Data Converter does that!

Example for the latest SDK versions

// If you wish to handle your strings ISO encoded:
// use InTradeSys\eBay\trading\EbatNs_DataConverterIso as DataConverterIso;

// But usually this will fit your needs:
use InTradeSys\eBay\trading\EbatNs_DataConverter as DataConverter;

class MyDataConverter extends DataConverter
{
	public function encodeData($value, $type, $typePropertyName)
	{
		// This will cause that every sent partner name is "No Name Ltd."
		// That only has an effect on requests. It does not change values represented by the model.
		if ($type === 'ItemType' && $typePropertyName === 'PartnerName') {
			$value = 'No Name Ltd.';

			// If you wish to skip the encoding or apply your own,
			// you do not need to call the parent method:
			return $value;
		}

		return parent::encodeData($value, $type, $typePropertyName);
	}

	public function decodeData($value, $type, $typePropertyName)
	{
		// This will appear if you call: $itemType->getPartnerName()
		// It also does not change any values in the model.
		if ($type === 'ItemType' && $typePropertyName === 'PartnerName' && $value === 'No Name Ltd.') {
			$value = '-//-';
		}

		return $value;
	}
}
