Usage
-----

[](#usage)

1. Install the package via Composer:

    ```
    composer require dmitry-ivanov/dark-sky-api
    ```
2. Use the `DmitryIvanov\DarkSkyApi\DarkSkyApi` class:

    ```
    use DmitryIvanov\DarkSkyApi\DarkSkyApi;

    $forecast = (new DarkSkyApi('secret-key'))
        ->location(46.482, 30.723)
        ->forecast('daily');

    echo $forecast->daily()->summary();
    ```

Time Machine Requests
---------------------

[](#time-machine-requests)

Sometimes it might be useful to get weather for the specified date:

```
$timeMachine = (new DarkSkyApi('secret-key'))
    ->location(46.482, 30.723)
    ->timeMachine('2020-01-01', 'daily');

echo $timeMachine->daily()->summary();
```

You can also get weather for multiple dates:

```
$timeMachine = (new DarkSkyApi('secret-key'))
    ->location(46.482, 30.723)
    ->timeMachine(['2020-01-01', '2020-01-02', '2020-01-03'], 'daily');

echo $timeMachine['2020-01-02']->daily()->summary();
```

Usage in Laravel
----------------

[](#usage-in-laravel)

> If you're using Laravel <5.5, you have to register service provider and alias by yourself!

1. Publish the config:

    ```
    php artisan vendor:publish --provider="DmitryIvanov\DarkSkyApi\Adapters\Laravel\DarkSkyApiServiceProvider"
    ```
2. Set your secret key in the `.env` file:

    ```
    DARK_SKY_KEY="Your-Secret-Key"
    ```
3. Use the `DarkSkyApi` facade:

    ```
    use DarkSkyApi;

    $forecast = DarkSkyApi::location(46.482, 30.723)
        ->forecast('daily');

    echo $forecast->daily()->summary();
    ```
