PHP Last.FM API
===============

[](#php-lastfm-api)

Thank you for using PHP Last.FM API!

You will need your own API key by registering at:

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

[](#installation)

`composer require matto1990/lastfm-api`

Usage
=====

[](#usage)

```
use LastFmApi\Api\AuthApi;
use LastFmApi\Api\ArtistApi;

class LastFm
{
    private $apiKey;
    private $artistApi;

    public function __construct()
    {
        $this->apiKey = 'apikeyfromlastfm'; //required
        $auth = new AuthApi('setsession', array('apiKey' => $this->apiKey));
        $this->artistApi = new ArtistApi($auth);
    }
    public function getBio($artist)
    {
        $artistInfo = $this->artistApi->getInfo(array("artist" => $artist));

        return $artistInfo['bio'];
    }
}
```

Testing
=======

[](#testing)

To run phpunit successfully, a *.env* file must be included in tests/Api:

```
lastfm_api_key=
lastfm_api_secret=
lastfm_token=
lastfm_session_key=
lastfm_username=
```

If you just want to run the tests that don't need authentication: `vendor/bin/phpunit --group notAuthenticated`. In this case you'll only need to set `lastfm_api_key` property.
