This small package offers a simple class to predict if a certain license plate could be on the road based on the timing restrictions of Quitos's transit regulations. Framework agnostic.

Install
-------

[](#install)

Via Composer

```
$ composer require joelwalls/picoyplaca
```

Usage
-----

[](#usage)

Simple usage of the class

```
require_once "vendor/autoload.php";

$predictor = new JoelWalls\PicoYPlaca\Predictor($license_plate, $date, $time);

if ($predictor->canDrive()) {
    echo "Car can be on the road";
} else {
    echo "Car cannnot be on the road";
}
```

The package supports a DateTime instance as second parameter.

```
require_once "vendor/autoload.php";

use JoelWalls\PicoYPlaca\Predictor;

$predictor = new Predictor($license_plate, new \DateTime);

if ($predictor->canDrive()) {
    echo "Car can be on the road";
} else {
    echo "Car cannnot be on the road";
}
```

If needed, you could also especify the timezone of the Predictor object in case the server works with a different TimeZone.

```
require_once "vendor/autoload.php";

use JoelWalls\PicoYPlaca\Predictor;

$predictor = new Predictor($license_plate, new \DateTime);
$predictor->setTimeZone('America/Guayaquil');

if ($predictor->canDrive()) {
    echo "Car can be on the road";
} else {
    echo "Car cannnot be on the road";
}
```

Note: The setTimeZone() method is recommended to use when the Predictor is initialized when a DateTime object as current time.

Testing
