AWS SQS Delete Messages Using Receipt Handle - php

Question

I am trying to set up SQS and after receiving the message, I need to delete it from the queue.
Creating Client -
$client = Aws\Sqs\SqsClient::factory(array(
'key' => '******',
'secret' => '******',
'region' => 'ap-southeast-1'
));
Sending Message
public static function SendMessage()
{
if(!isset(self::$queueUrl))
self::getQueueUrl();
$command = "This is a command";
$commandstring = json_encode($command);
self::$client->sendMessage(array(
'QueueUrl' => self::$queueUrl,
'MessageBody' => $commandstring,
));
}
Receiving Message
public static function RecieveMessage()
{
if(!isset(self::$queueUrl))
self::getQueueUrl();
$result = self::$client->receiveMessage(array(
'QueueUrl' => self::$queueUrl,
));
// echo "Message Recieved >> ";
print_r($result);
foreach ($result->getPath('Messages/*/Body') as $messageBody) {
// Do something with the message
echo $messageBody;
//print_r(json_decode($messageBody));
}
foreach ($result->getPath('Messages/*/ReceiptHandle') as $ReceiptHandle) {
self::$client->deleteMessage(self::$queueUrl, $ReceiptHandle);
}
}
When I try to delete the message using the Receipt Handle in the receive message code, I get error from Guzzle -
Catchable fatal error: Argument 2 passed to Guzzle\Service\Client::getCommand() must be an array, string given,
Now after searching a lot for it, I was able to find similar questions which state that they were using wrong SDK version. I am still not able to narrow it down though. I am using the zip version of the latest sdk 2.6.15

Why don't you give this a try this:
self::$client->deleteMessage(array(
'QueueUrl' => self::$queueUrl,
'ReceiptHandle' => $ReceiptHandle,
));
The Basic formatting example in the API docs for SqsClient::deleteMessage() (and other operations) should help. All of the methods that execute operations take exactly one parameter, which is an associative array of the operation's parameters. You should read through the SDK's Getting Started Guide (if you haven't already), which talks about how to perform operations in general.
