A premium, feature-rich PHP SDK and Laravel integration for the Hetzner Robot Web Service API, featuring rate-limit handling, automatic retries, and concurrent batch operations.
- 100% Endpoint Coverage: Complete implementation of all 14 Robot webservice sections (servers, IPs, subnets, resets, failover, Wake-on-LAN, boot options, reverse DNS, traffic, SSH keys, order products, Storage Boxes, firewalls, and vSwitches).
- Basic Authentication: Fully automated Basic Auth headers configuration.
- Form Urlencoded Requests: Parameters transfer mapped automatically using
application/x-www-form-urlencoded. - Fail-Safe Retries & Backoff: Robust exponential backoff and rate-limit parsing handling
RATE_LIMIT_EXCEEDEDerrors automatically. - Concurrently Pooled Processing: Execute calls asynchronously or concurrently in batches.
- Type-Safe DTOs: Automated data hydration into standard PHP DTO structures.
- Custom Exceptions: Specialized mapping of API status codes (ValidationException, RateLimitException, AuthenticationException, etc.).
