README
Custom PHP curl library for the Laravel 5 framework - developed by Ixudra.
This package can be used by anyone at any given time, but keep in mind that it is optimized for my personal custom workflow. It may not suit your project perfectly and modifications may be in order.
Installation
Pull this package in through Composer.
{ "require": { "ixudra/curl": "5.*" } }
Add the service provider to your Config/app.php
file:
providers => array( //... 'Ixudra\Curl\CurlServiceProvider', )
Add the facade to your Config/app.php
file:
facades => array( //... 'Curl' => 'Ixudra\Curl\Facades\Curl', )
Usage
GET requests
The package provides an easy interface for sending CURL requests from your application. Optionally, you can also include several GET
parameters that will automatically be added to the base URL by the package automatically. Lastly, the package also has a parameter that allows you to easily mark a request as a JSON requests. The package will automatically handle the conversion from and to JSON to PHP if needed. The default value of this parameter is false
:
// Send a GET request to: http://www.foo.com/bar Curl::get('http://www.foo.com/bar'); // Send a GET request to: http://www.foo.com/bar?foz=baz Curl::get('http://www.foo.com/bar', array('foz' => 'baz')); // Send a GET request to: http://www.foo.com/bar?foz=baz using JSON Curl::get('http://www.foo.com/bar', array('foz' => 'baz'), true);
POST requests
The package also allows you to send POST
requests for your application. The first and second parameter are identical to the Curl::get()
method. The POST
parameters can be passed on as the third parameter. The fourth and last parameter can be used to mark the request as a JSON requests. The package will automatically handle the conversion from and to JSON to PHP is needed. The default value of this parameter is false
:
// Send a POST request to: http://www.foo.com/bar with arguments 'fow' = 'baw' Curl::post('http://www.foo.com/bar', array(), array('fow' => 'baw')); // Send a POST request to: http://www.foo.com/bar?foz=baz with arguments 'fow' = 'baw' Curl::post('http://www.foo.com/bar', array('foz' => 'baz'), array('fow' => 'baw')); // Send a POST request to: http://www.foo.com/bar?foz=baz with arguments 'fow' = 'baw' using JSON Curl::post('http://www.foo.com/bar', array('foz' => 'baz'), array('fow' => 'baw'), true);
That's all there is to it! Have fun!
