PHP Plaid API Client
====================

[](#php-plaid-api-client)

> *with Laravel extras*

This is a fairly robust set of classes that attempts to adhere strictly to the [Plaid API documentation](https://plaid.com/docs/api).

---

Installation
------------

[](#installation)

`composer require oldtimeguitarguy/plaid`

### *Laravel Only*

[](#laravel-only)

> Just to reiterate... **LARAVEL IS NOT REQUIRED TO USE THIS API CLIENT**

1. Add the following line to `config/app.php@providers`: `OldTimeGuitarGuy\Plaid\Laravel\PlaidServiceProvider::class,`
2. For facade access, add the following line to `config/app.php@aliases`: `'Plaid' => OldTimeGuitarGuy\Plaid\Laravel\PlaidFacade::class,`
3. Run `php artisan vendor:publish`
4. Reference the config file copied to `config/plaid.php`

USAGE
-----

[](#usage)

> I still need to write usage instructions. In the meantime, please reference the tests. Everything should be fairly straight-forward.
>
> **ALSO**, check out my response to [this issue question](https://github.com/oldtimeguitarguy/plaid/issues/1)
