A laravel package to interface with the Apixu API
=================================================

[](#a-laravel-package-to-interface-with-the-apixu-api)

This package adds a facade and a dependency injectable class you can use to make easy calls to the api

Install
-------

[](#install)

You can install the package via composer:

```
composer require rjvandoesburg/laravel-apixu-client
```

You must install the following service provider:

```
// config/app.php

'providers' => [
    ...
    Rjvandoesburg\Apixu\ApixuServiceProvider::class,
    ...
];
```

This package requires an API key that can be stored in the `.env` file. You can get your key here: The following settings are available for your `.env` file:

```
APIXU_KEY={your-key-here}
APIXU_URL=https://api.apixu.com/v1
APIXU_CACHE_LENGTH=30
```

The cache length is how long before new data is fetched from the server, this because you might want to limit the API calls

These settings are set in a config file that you can edit yourself, should you desire to do so. Execute the following command to get the config file

```
php artisan vendor:publish --provider="Rjvandoesburg\Apixu\ApixuServiceProvider"
```

A file named `apixu.php` will be created in the config directory.

Usage
-----

[](#usage)

The API has 4 endpoint

- [Current](https://www.apixu.com/doc/current.aspx)
- [Forecast](https://www.apixu.com/doc/forecast.aspx)
- [History](https://www.apixu.com/doc/history.aspx)
- [Search](https://www.apixu.com/doc/search.aspx)

Each request needs certain parameters, read more about those [here](https://www.apixu.com/doc/request.aspx)

To build op the filters you need to use a FiltersClass and all parameters you can set for the API are defined as properties. To use the facade to get the current weather, use the following:

```
$filters = new \Rjvandoesburg\Apixu\Filters([
    'q' => 'London',
]);
$response = \Apixu::current($filters);
```

This will return a `CurrentResponse` which contains all properties returned. You can use this response to easily output the response.

The available methods are:

```
\Apixu::current($filters);
\Apixu::forecast($filters);
\Apixu::history($filters);
\Apixu::search($filters);
```

or use the dependency injection method

```
public function getWeather(\Rjvandoesburg\Apixu\ApixuClient $apixu)
{
    $filters = new \Rjvandoesburg\Apixu\Filters([
        'q' => 'London',
    ]);

    return $apixu->current($filters)
}
```
