[Ghost](https://ghost.org) + [Laravel](https://laravel.com) = ❤️

Specter provides the means to interact with a Ghost database inside Laravel. Whether you want to use Ghost headless or integrate it into an existing app, this is the package for you.

⚠️ Warning ⚠️
-------------

[](#warning-warning-warning)

Please note that this is not an API client; Specter accesses your Ghost database *directly*. Use with caution.

In addition, this package is a work in progress. Breaking changes may be introduced.

Install
-------

[](#install)

```
composer require geekish/specter
```

Usage
-----

[](#usage)

This package requires Laravel 5.5+ and is set up for auto-discovery.

If you want to use the default routes files provided by Specter, you may add `Specter\Providers\RouteServiceProvider` to your config/app.php manually.

### Customization

[](#customization)

If you want to customize config values:

```
php artisan vendor:publish --provider="Specter\\ServiceProvider"
```

Currently there is only one config item: posts per page. You may also set this value in your env file:

```
SPECTER_PER_PAGE=3
```
