Here's how you'd do it using daniil.it/MadelineProto:

try {
     $MadelineProto = \danog\MadelineProto\Serialization::unserialize('session.madeline'); // Unserialize a stored session, if you haven't saved it yet, login first, see below
} catch (\danog\MadelineProto\Exception $e) { // If 
    $MadelineProto = new \danog\MadelineProto\API();
    // Login as a user
    $sentCode = $MadelineProto->phone_login($number);
    echo 'Enter the code you received: ';
    $code = '';
    for ($x = 0; $x < $sentCode['type']['length']; $x++) {
        $code .= fgetc(STDIN);
    }
    $MadelineProto->complete_phone_login($code);
}
$inputContacts = [];
$inputContacts[0] = ['_' => 'inputPhoneContact', 'client_id' => 0, 'phone' => '+172737', 'first_name' => 'first', 'last_name' => 'last', ];
$inputContacts[1] = ['_' => 'inputPhoneContact', 'client_id' => 0, 'phone' => '+172737', 'first_name' => 'first', 'last_name' => 'last', ];
// You can add maximum 4000000000 contacts

 $contacts_ImportedContacts = $MadelineProto->contacts->importContacts(['contacts' => $InputContacts, 'replace' => false, ]);

 $MadelineProto->serialize('session.madeline');
