Laravel Torrent
===============

[](#laravel-torrent)

A package for [Laravel 5](http://laravel.com/) to scrape for torrents.

Installation
------------

[](#installation)

Add this to your `composer.json`:

```
"require": {
    "bstien/laravel-torrent": "dev-master"
}
```

Register the facade and ServiceProvider in `config/app.php`:

```
'providers' => [
    // ...
    'Stien\Torrent\TorrentServiceProvider',
];

'aliases' => [
    // ...
    'Torrent    => 'Stien\Torrent\Facades\Torrent',
];
```

Usage
-----

[](#usage)

### Regular search

[](#regular-search)

Returns an array with `Stien\Torrent\Result\Torrent`-objects if matches are found. If not, an empty array is returned.

```
use Stien\Torrent\Facades\Torrent;
# You can register this to your facades-array in config/app.php if you like

$torrents = Torrent::search("Modern Family");

foreach( $torrents as $torrent )
{
    echo $torrent->getTitle();
}

# To search within a specific category, use any of the constants in
# Stien\Torrent\Categories.
```

### Search in category

[](#search-in-category)

Include a category as the second argument to `Torrent::search()`. See constants in `Stien\Torrent\Categories` for reference.

It defaults to `Categories::ALL` if none are given.

```
use Stien\Torrent\Facades\Torrent;
use Stien\Torrent\Categories as CAT;

$torrents = Torrent::search("Die Hard", CAT::MOVIES_HD);
```

Implement your own adapter
--------------------------

[](#implement-your-own-adapter)

To extend this package with another adapter, create a new class and have it implement `Stien\Torrent\TorrentAdapterInterface`.

Register your adapter with the scraper

```
use Stien\Torrent\Facades\Torrent;

$myAdapter = new MyAdapter();
$myAdapter->setHttpClient(new \GuzzleHttp\Client);

Torrent::addAdapter( $myAdapter );
```
