Dependencies ------------ [](#dependencies) - PHP 7 You will need an implementation of `eLife\ApiClient\HttpClient`; the client provides an adapter for [Guzzle 6](http://guzzlephp.org/). Installation and usage ---------------------- [](#installation-and-usage) This library provides base HTTP functionality for the classes available in [`elife/api-sdk-php`](https://github.com/elifesciences/api-sdk-php). Please use that package instead of consuming this directly. If you do want to use it, you can do so via composer, e.g. `composer require elife/api-client`. ### Deprecation warnings [](#deprecation-warnings) As the eLife API provides deprecation warnings using the HTTP `Warning` header, the `eLife\ApiClient\HttpClient\WarningCheckingHttpClient` will pass these to a [PSR-7 logger](http://www.php-fig.org/psr/psr-3/). ### Health Score 43 — FairBetter than 91% of packages Maintenance67 Regular maintenance activity Popularity28 Limited adoption so far Community18 Small or concentrated contributor base Maturity50 Maturing project, gaining track record Bus Factor2 2 contributors hold 50%+ of commits How is this calculated?**Maintenance (25%)** — Last commit recency, latest release date, and issue-to-star ratio.
