Wikidata
========

[](#wikidata)

Wikidata provides a API for searching and retrieving data from [wikidata.org](https://www.wikidata.org).

### Installation

[](#installation)

```
composer require freearhey/wikidata
```

### Usage

[](#usage)

```
$wikidata = new Wikidata;
```

#### Search

[](#search)

Search by entity title:

```
$result = $wikidata->search('steve jobs');
```

Check if no search results

```
if($result->isEmpty()) {
	echo 'no results';
	die();
}
```

Retrieve first entity in result list

```
$singleResult = $result->first();
```

Retrieve all results

```
$allResults = $result->get();
```

Get entity id

```
$entityId = $singleResult->getEntityId(); // Q26
```

#### Entities

[](#entities)

Get single entity by id:

```
$entities = $wikidata->entities('Q26');
```

Get single entity with preset language (default: en)

```
$entities = $wikidata->entities('Q26', 'fr');
```

Get few entities by id and more languages

```
$entities = $wikidata->entities('Q26|Q106', 'en|fr|ch');
```

Retrieve first entity

```
$entity = $entities->first();
```

Get all entities

```
$entity = $entities->get();
```

Get single entity by id

```
$entity = $entities->get('Q26');
```

Get entity label and description (default language: en)

```
$label = $entity->getLabel(); // Steve Jobs
$description = $entity->getDescription('de'); // US-amerikanischer Unternehmer, Mitbegründer von Apple Computer
```

Get entity property values by property id (e.g. P21) if it exists. All list properties you can find [here](https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Wikidata:List_of_properties)

```
$gender = $entity->getPropertyValues('P21'); // array(1) { [0]=> string(4) "male" }
```

And with language property (default: en)

```
$childs = $entity->getPropertyValues('P40', 'ru'); // array(1) { [0]=> string(35) "Бреннан-Джобс, Лиза" }
```

That's all.
