GuideStar Client
================

[](#guidestar-client)

This project provides a client for the GuideStar API. Requires a paid GuideStar account.

Testing
-------

[](#testing)

For simple unit tests, do this:

```
./phpunit

```

This will *not* query GuideStar, but will mock GuideStar's responses using the data in `tests/files/` instead. To query against the real GuideStar database, do this first:

```
cp phpunit-integration.xml.dist phpunit-integration.xml
nano phpunit-integration.xml

```

And fill in your GuideStar API key(s) into the environment variables it references. Then run the tests like so:

```
./phpunit -c phpunit-integration.xml

```

Have fun!
