Register the Service in: **config/app.php**

```

```

Optional - Register the Facade in: **config/app.php**

```

    //...
    'Postcode' => ApiPostcode\Facade\Postcode::class,
];
```

### Step 3: Configure Api Postcode credentials

Usage
-----

[](#usage)

```
$address = app('api.postcode')->fetchAddress('1012JS', 1);

$address->getStreet();      // Dam
$address->getCity();        // Amsterdam
$address->getHouseNumber(); // 1
$address->getZipCode();     // 1012JS
$address->getLongitude();   // 4.4584
$address->getLatitude();    // 52.2296

$address = Postcode::fetchAddress('1012JS', '1')
```

Or straight in routes:

```
$router->get('postcode/{zipCode}/{number}', function ($zipCode, $number) {
    return Postcode::fetchAddress($zipCode, $number);
});
```
