The main purpose is to make code that uses curl calls testable. We do it by injecting the Curl object as a dependency instead of calling curl functions directly. Hard-coded dependencies. Not testable. ``` class MyApiClient { ... function call($url) { $ch = curl_init($url); curl_set_opt($ch, /*...*/) return curl_exec($ch); } } ``` Testable code. Curl object is injected, so can be easily mocked in PHPUnit. ``` class MyApiClient { private $curl; function __construct(\PHPCurl\CurlWrapper\CurlInterface $curl) { $this->curl = $curl; } //... function call($url) { $this->curl->init($url); $this->curl->setOpt(/*...*/) return $this->curl->exec(); } } ``` Install ------- [](#install) Via [composer](https://getcomposer.org): `$ composer require "phpcurl/curlwrapper"` Basic usage examples.
