You can also add it as a Facade in config/app.php:

'BusinessDay' => Colybri\BusinessDay\BusinessDay::class,

Configuration

First of all you must configure the options of your holidays calendar in config/business-day.php file. In order to edit the default configuration for this package you may execute:

php artisan vendor:publish --provider="Colybri\BusinessDay\BusinessDayServiceProvider"

use Colybri\BusinessDay\BusinessDay;

$date = BusinessDay::now();

return [
 /*
  |--------------------------------------------------------------------------
  | Holidays calendar
  |--------------------------------------------------------------------------
  |
  */
  'restDay' => 0, //Sunday
  'saturdayIsBusinessDay' => "false",
  'holidays' => [
      "01-01",
      $date->easterSunday()->addDay()->config(),
      $date->goodFriday()->config(),
      "06-01",
      //vacational periods
      [
          "01-08", "31-08"
      ],
      [
          "24-12", "27-12"
      ],
      ...
  ],
];

The option restDay set to 0 establish Sunday as holiday. If you don't want this behavior by default set the field to "false". All literal dates must be indicate whit format "d-m". If you want to use available methods of this library for mobile holidays you must to call after to config method. You can also indicates vacational periods with start and end date.
