A Laravel package that provides easy access to the [php-tmdb/api](https://github.com/php-tmdb/api) TMDB (The Movie Database) API wrapper. This package comes with a service provider that configures the `Tmdb\Client` and registers it to the IoC container. Supports Laravel 8 through 13.

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

[](#installation)

Install Composer

```
$ curl -sS https://getcomposer.org/installer | php
$ sudo mv composer.phar /usr/local/bin/composer

```

Add the following to your require block in `composer.json` config

```
"dariusiii/tmdb-laravel": "^2.0"

```

or just run the following command in your project:

```
composer require dariusiii/tmdb-laravel

```

Configuration
-------------

[](#configuration)

Laravel will auto-discover the package on supported versions. If you prefer to register it manually, add the service provider to `config/app.php`:

```
'providers' => array(
    // other service providers

    'Tmdb\Laravel\TmdbServiceProvider',
)
```

Then publish the configuration file:

```
php artisan vendor:publish --provider="Tmdb\Laravel\TmdbServiceProvider"

```

Next you can modify the generated configuration file `tmdb.php` accordingly.

That's all! Fire away!

Usage
-----

[](#usage)

We can choose to either use the `Tmdb` Facade, or to use dependency injection.

Development
-----------

[](#development)

Run the package quality checks locally with Composer scripts:

```
composer test
composer phpstan
```

### Facade example

[](#facade-example)

The example below shows how you can use the `Tmdb` facade. If you don't want to keep adding the `use Tmdb\Laravel\Facades\Tmdb;` statement in your files, then you can also add the facade as an alias in `config/app.php` file.

```
use Tmdb\Laravel\Facades\Tmdb;

class MoviesController {

    function show($id)
    {
        // returns information of a movie
        return Tmdb::getMoviesApi()->getMovie($id);
    }
}
```

### Dependency injection example

[](#dependency-injection-example)

```
use Tmdb\Repository\MovieRepository;

class MoviesController {

    private $movies;

    function __construct(MovieRepository $movies)
    {
        $this->movies = $movies;
    }

    function index()
    {
        // returns information of a movie
        return $this->movies->getPopular();
    }
}
```

### Listening to events

[](#listening-to-events)

We can easily listen to events that are dispatched using the Laravel event dispatcher that we're familiar with. The following example listens to any request that is made and logs a message.

```
use Event;
use Illuminate\Support\Facades\Log;
use Tmdb\Event\RequestEvent;

Event::listen(RequestEvent::class, function (RequestEvent $event) {
    Log::info("A request was made to TMDB");
    // do stuff with $event
});
```

You can also register the same listener in your application's `EventServiceProvider`.

### Image helper

[](#image-helper)

You can easily use the `ImageHelper` by using dependency injection. The following example shows how to show the poster image of the 20 most popular movies.

```
namespace App\Http\Controllers;

use Tmdb\Helper\ImageHelper;
use Tmdb\Repository\MovieRepository;

class WelcomeController extends Controller {

    private $movies;
    private $helper;

    public function __construct(MovieRepository $movies, ImageHelper $helper)
    {
        $this->movies = $movies;
        $this->helper = $helper;
    }

    /**
     * Show the application welcome screen to the user.
     *
     * @return Response
     */
    public function index()
    {
        $popular = $this->movies->getPopular();

        foreach ($popular as $movie)
        {
            $image = $movie->getPosterImage();
            echo ($this->helper->getHtml($image, 'w154', 260, 420));
        }
    }

}
```

The `Configuration` used by the `Tmdb\Helper\ImageHelper` is automatically loaded by the IoC container.

### Customizing outgoing requests

[](#customizing-outgoing-requests)

You can customize outgoing requests by listening for `BeforeRequestEvent` in one of your application's service providers.

```
namespace App\Providers;

use Event;
use Illuminate\Support\ServiceProvider;
use Tmdb\Event\BeforeRequestEvent;

class TmdbServiceProvider extends ServiceProvider {

    /**
     * Customize TMDB requests before they are sent.
     *
     * @return void
     */
    public function boot()
    {
        Event::listen(BeforeRequestEvent::class, function (BeforeRequestEvent $event) {
            $request = $event->getRequest()->withHeader('Accept-Language', 'nl-NL');

            $event->setRequest($request);
        });
    }

    /**
     * Register services
     * @return void
     */
    public function register()
    {
        // register any services that you need
    }
}
```
