πŸ”— Related SDK Implementation

This documentation is for the PHP SDK implementation in:

SDK PR: TurboDocx/SDK#7

SDK Features Documented

The SDK implementation includes:

  • Modern PHP 8.1+ with strong typing
  • PHPStan level 8 (zero errors)
  • 31 unit tests with 82 assertions (100% passing)
  • PSR-12 compliance
  • Readonly classes and enums
  • HttpClientConfig::fromEnvironment() helper

Documentation Highlights

This PR ensures the documentation:

  • βœ… Accurately reflects SDK API signatures
  • βœ… Shows all 11 field types with proper enum usage
  • βœ… Demonstrates both configuration methods
  • βœ… Includes error handling best practices
  • βœ… Follows Stripe/PostHog documentation patterns

Both PRs should be merged together for a complete PHP SDK release! 🎊

Technical Review - PHP SDK Documentation

I've completed a comprehensive technical review of the PHP SDK documentation against the actual SDK implementation. Here are the findings:


βœ… Overall Assessment

The documentation is well-structured with excellent flow and comprehensive coverage. However, there are some technical inaccuracies that need to be addressed before merging.


πŸ”΄ Critical Technical Inaccuracies

1. DocumentStatus Enum - Incomplete Values (Confidence: 100%)

Location: php.md:L645-L649

Issue: The enum is missing 4 values. Currently shows:

enum DocumentStatus: string {
    case PENDING = 'pending';
    case COMPLETED = 'completed';
}

Should be:

enum DocumentStatus: string {
    case DRAFT = 'draft';
    case SETUP_COMPLETE = 'setup_complete';
    case REVIEW_READY = 'review_ready';
    case UNDER_REVIEW = 'under_review';
    case PENDING = 'pending';
    case COMPLETED = 'completed';
}

2. Classes Shown as readonly - Incorrect Modifier (Confidence: 95%)

Locations:

Issue: Classes shown as final readonly class but SDK uses final class (not readonly)

Fix: Remove readonly keyword from all class declarations


3. AuditTrail Property Name - Incorrect (Confidence: 90%)

Location: php.md:L695

Issue: Shows $audit->entries but the property name is $audit->auditTrail

Current:

foreach ($status->auditTrail->entries as $entry) {

Should be:

foreach ($status->auditTrail->auditTrail as $entry) {

4. SendSignatureRequest - Missing Required Parameters (Confidence: 85%)

Location: php.md:L746-L752

Issue: Type reference missing senderEmail, senderName, and fileName parameters which are required in the SDK

Should include:

final readonly class SendSignatureRequest {
    public function __construct(
        public array $recipients,
        public array $fields,
        public string $file,
        public string $senderEmail,
        public string $senderName,
        public ?string $fileName = null,
        // ... other parameters
    ) {}
}

⚠️ Code Example Issues

Missing Imports in Code Examples (Confidence: 80%)

Affected sections:

Issue: Examples use classes like Recipient, Field, SignatureFieldType, etc. but don't show the necessary use statements

Recommendation: Add import statements at the top of each example:

use TurboDocx\Types\Recipient;
use TurboDocx\Types\Field;
use TurboDocx\Types\SignatureFieldType;
// ... etc

πŸ“‹ Documentation Flow Suggestions

  1. Quick Start Positioning - Consider moving Quick Start before Configuration section for better onboarding
  2. First Example Complexity - The initial Quick Start example uses 2 recipients + 4 fields, which may be overwhelming
  3. Duplicate Warnings - Lines 177-179 and 215-217 have identical admonitions
  4. Field Positioning Concept - Important concept buried at line 534, could be elevated

βœ… Action Items

  • Fix DocumentStatus enum to include all 6 values
  • Remove readonly keyword from class declarations
  • Fix AuditTrail property access from entries to auditTrail
  • Add missing parameters to SendSignatureRequest type reference
  • Add missing use statements to code examples
  • Consider documentation flow improvements (optional)

I'll proceed to fix all the critical technical inaccuracies now.

Fixed multiple technical inaccuracies found in code review:

- Fix DocumentStatus enum - added missing values (draft, setup_complete,
  review_ready, under_review) to match SDK implementation
- Remove 'readonly' keyword from class declarations (Recipient, Field,
  SendSignatureRequest) - SDK uses 'final class' not 'final readonly class'
- Fix AuditTrail property access from $audit->entries to $audit->auditTrail
- Add missing parameters to SendSignatureRequest type reference
  (fileName, senderName, senderEmail)
- Add missing imports to 7 code examples:
  - Template-based Quick Start example
  - File Upload (Direct) example
  - File URL example
  - TurboDocx Deliverable ID example
  - TurboDocx Template ID example
  - Prepare for review API example
  - Prepare for signing API example

All fixes verified against SDK source code.
