Overview
--------

[](#overview)

The Business Name Generator is a PHP class that generates business names based on a combination of adjectives and nouns. It provides a flexible and customizable way to generate business names that can be used for various purposes.

Business Name Generator Documentation
-------------------------------------

[](#business-name-generator-documentation)

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

[](#installation)

You can install the package via composer:

```
composer require designbycode/business-name-generator
```

Usage
-----

[](#usage)

### Basic Usage

[](#basic-usage)

```
require 'vendor/autoload.php';

use Designbycode\BusinessNameGenerator\BusinessNameGenerator;
use Designbycode\BusinessNameGenerator\Nouns;
use Designbycode\BusinessNameGenerator\Adjectives;

// Create a new BusinessNameGenerator instance
$generator = new BusinessNameGenerator();

// Generate a business name using default adjectives and funny nouns
$businessName = $generator->generate('default', 'funny')->first();
echo $businessName;  // Example output: "Innovative Banana"
```

Generating Business Names
-------------------------

[](#generating-business-names)

To generate business names, use the generate() method:

```
$generator->generate();
```

This will generate an array of business names based on the adjectives and nouns set earlier. You can access the generated names using the get() method:

```
$names = $generator->get();
```

Customizing the Generation Process
----------------------------------

[](#customizing-the-generation-process)

You can customize the generation process by specifying the category of adjectives and nouns to use. For example:

```
$generator->generate('funny', 'playful');
```

> This will generate business names using funny adjectives and playful nouns.

Retrieving Specific Names
-------------------------

[](#retrieving-specific-names)

You can retrieve specific names from the generated list using the following methods:

```
$last_name = $generator->last(); // returns the last generated business name
$first_name = $generator->first(); // returns the first generated business name
$random_name = $generator->random(); // returns a random generated business name
```

You can also retrieve an array of random names using the randomArray() method:

```
$random_names = $generator->randomArray(3); // returns an array of 3 random generated business names
```

Converting to String
--------------------

[](#converting-to-string)

You can convert the generated names to a string using the toString() method:

```
$names_string = $generator->toString(', '); // returns a string representation of the generated business names, separated by commas
```

### Setting Adjectives and Nouns

[](#setting-adjectives-and-nouns)

You can set the adjectives and nouns to use for generating business names using the following methods. You can also provide your own lists of adjectives and nouns:

```
$businessName = new BusinessNameGenerator();
$businessName
    ->setAdjectives(['Innovative', 'Creative', 'Dynamic'])
    ->setNouns(['Solutions', 'Technologies', 'Ventures'])
    ->generate()
    ->first()

echo $businessName;  // Example output: "Creative Solutions"
```

Alternatively, you can pass an array of adjectives and nouns to the constructor:

```
$businessName = new BusinessNameGenerator(['Innovative', 'Creative', 'Dynamic'], ['Solutions', 'Technologies', 'Ventures']);

$businessName->generate()->first() // Example output: "Creative Solutions"
```

### Using Specific Categories

[](#using-specific-categories)

You can generate business names based on specific categories of adjectives and nouns:

```
$generator = new BusinessNameGenerator();

// Generate a business name using playful adjectives and color-related nouns
$businessName = $generator->generate('playful', 'color');
echo $businessName;  // Example output: "Cheerful Blue"
```

Adjective and Noun Categories
-----------------------------

[](#adjective-and-noun-categories)

### Adjective Categories

[](#adjective-categories)

- default: Standard business-related adjectives.
- funny: Whimsical and humorous adjectives.
- playful: Light-hearted and playful adjectives.
- color: Color-related adjectives.
- all: A combination of all the above categories.

### Noun Categories

[](#noun-categories)

- default: Standard business-related nouns.
- funny: Whimsical and humorous nouns.
- playful: Light-hearted and playful nouns.
- color: Color-related nouns.
- all: A combination of all the above categories.

### Extending the Lists

[](#extending-the-lists)

If you want to extend the list of adjectives or nouns, you can create your own classes that implement the HasGeneratorLists interface.

```
namespace YourNamespace;

use Designbycode\BusinessNameGenerator\HasGeneratorLists;

class CustomAdjectives implements HasGeneratorLists
{
    public function default(): array
    {
        return ["Energetic", "Bold", "Brilliant"];
    }

    public function funny(): array
    {
        return ["Zany", "Wacky", "Goofy"];
    }

    public function playful(): array
    {
        return ["Bouncy", "Jovial", "Perky"];
    }

    public function color(): array
    {
        return ["Crimson", "Amber", "Sapphire"];
    }
}
```

Then use your custom class with the BusinessNameGenerator:

```
use Designbycode\BusinessNameGenerator\BusinessNameGenerator;
use YourNamespace\CustomAdjectives;
use Designbycode\BusinessNameGenerator\Nouns;

$generator = new BusinessNameGenerator((new CustomAdjectives())->default(), (new Nouns())->default());

$businessName = $generator->generate('default', 'default');
echo $businessName;  // Example output: "Energetic Solutions"
```
