This class requires **PHP 7.1**.

Installation
============

[](#installation)

For **PHP 7.1** and later:

composer require marwelln/holiday:~2.0

```

About
=====

[](#about)

This class helps you know when holidays occours in Sweden. You can either get all holidays in an iterable `Marwelln\Holiday\Collection` or check when a specific holiday occours. All results returns a [`DateTime`](http://php.net/manual/en/class.datetime.php) object that you can use to format the date the way you want it.

Usage
=====

[](#usage)

```
// Get all holidays as a `Marwelln\Holiday\Collection`.
$holidays = (new \Marwelln\Holiday)->get($year); // `$year` can be removed if you want to use current year.
$holidays = (new \Marwelln\Holiday)->year($year)->get();

// Check when easter occours.
$easter = (new \Marwelln\Holiday)->when('easter'); // 27 mars, as of 2016 (current year)
$easter = (new \Marwelln\Holiday)->year(2015)->when('easter'); // 5 april

// Get holidays between two dates.
$holidays = (new \Marwelln\Holiday)->between(new \DateTime('2015-01-01'), new \DateTime('2015-03-24')); // Collection of holidays

// Format the collection.
$holidays = (new \Marwelln\Holiday)->get();
$formatted = $holidays->map(function($holiday){
    return [
        'id' => $holiday['id'],
        'date' => $holiday['date']->format('Y-m-d'),
        'name' => trans('holiday.' . $holiday['id']), // Custom function from Laravel
        'onWeekend' => in_array($holiday['date']->format('N'), [6, 7])
    ];
}, $holidays);

```
