Very easy to use. Offers the use of Facades and Dependency Injection Installation ------------ [](#installation) [PHP](https://php.net) 5.5+ or [HHVM](http://hhvm.com) 3.3+, and [Composer](https://getcomposer.org) are required. First, pull in the package through Composer. ``` $ composer require unicodeveloper/laravel-medium ``` Another alternative is to simply add the following line to the require block of your `composer.json` file. ``` "unicodeveloper/laravel-medium": "1.0.*" ``` Then run `composer install` or `composer update` to download it and have the autoloader updated. Add this to your providers array in `config/app.php` ``` // Laravel 5: config/app.php 'providers' => [ ... Unicodeveloper\Medium\MediumServiceProvider::class, ... ]; ``` This package also comes with a facade ``` // Laravel 5: config/app.php 'aliases' => [ ... 'Medium' => Unicodeveloper\Medium\Facades\Medium::class', ... ] ``` Publish the config file by running: ``` php artisan vendor:publish ``` The config file will now be located at `config/medium.php`. Configuration ------------- [](#configuration) This is the `medium.php` file in the `config` directory. Go to your [medium settings page](https://medium.com/me/settings), and generate an access token also known as integration token. Integration tokens do not expire right now, though they may be revoked by the user at any time. ``` /** * Config file that a user/developer can insert the self-issued access token */ return [ 'integrationToken' => '' ]; ``` Usage ----- [](#usage) ##### MediumManager [](#mediummanager) This is the class of most interest. It is bound to the ioc container as `'laravel-medium'` and can be accessed using the `Facades\Medium` facade. ##### Facades\\Medium [](#facadesmedium) This facade will dynamically pass static method calls to the `'laravel-medium'` object in the ioc container which by default is the `MediumManager` class. ##### Examples [](#examples) Here you can see an example of just how simple this package is to use. ``` use Unicodeveloper\Medium\Facades\Medium; // or you can alias this in config/app.php like I mentioned initially above Medium::me()->id; // returns the id of the medium user that can be used for future requests e.g 13889cdb2bb57e75ab7d7261f1f0c4df0e824b3f2249f55b788c0dc2ae84c6b8f Medium::me()->username; // returns the username of the medium user e.g prosper Medium::me()->name; // returns the full name of the medium user e.g Testing Tester Medium::me()->url; // returns the url of the medium profile e.g "https://medium.com/@prosper" Medium::me()->imageUrl; // returns the url of the medium user avatar ``` WIP - PLEASE DON'T USE IN PRODUCTION YET! ========================================= [](#wip---please-dont-use-in-production-yet) Change log ---------- [](#change-log) Please see [CHANGELOG](CHANGELOG.md) for more information what has changed recently.
