Usage
-----

[](#usage)

To learn about Adblock Plus filter syntax check these links:

-
-

1. Get filter rules somewhere: write them manually, read lines from a file downloaded from [EasyList](https://easylist.to/), etc.:

    ```
    $rules = [
        "||ads.example.com^",
        "@@||ads.example.com/notbanner^$~script",
    ];
    ```
2. Create AdblockRules instance from the rules array:

    ```
    use Limonte\AdblockParser;

    $adblockParser = new AdblockParser($rules);
    $adblockParser->addRules($anotherRules);
    ```
3. Use this instance to check if an URL should be blocked or not:

    ```
    $adblockParser->shouldBlock("http://ads.example.com"); // true
    $adblockParser->shouldBlock("http://non-ads.example.com"); // false
    ```
