2D Bin Packing Algorithms using PHP
===================================

[](#2d-bin-packing-algorithms-using-php)

This repository is a port of the 2D bin packing algorithms found here: [juj/RectangleBinPack](https://www.github.com/juj/RectangleBinPack) into PHP.

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

[](#installation)

You can install the package via composer:

```
composer require dagmike/bin-packing
```

Usage
-----

[](#usage)

```
use BinPacking\RectangleBinPack;
use BinPacking\Rectangle;

$bin = (new RectangleBinPack(1000, 1000))->init();

$packed = $bin->insert(new Rectangle(100, 100), "RectBestAreaFit");

if ($packed) {
    echo "Item ({$packed->getWidth()}x{$packed->getHeight()}) packed at position ({$packed->getX()}, {$packed->getY()})";
} else {
    echo "Unable to pack item";
}
```
