README

Installation

Ensure you have composer installed, then run the following command:

composer require lyonstahl/fips

That will fetch the library and its dependencies inside your vendor folder.

Requirements

• PHP 7.3+
• Composer 2.0+

Usage

Start using either the State or County class to get the data you need.

$state = State::fromName('California');
echo $state->fips; // 06
echo $state->abbreviation; // CA

$counties = $state->getCounties();
echo $counties[0]->name; // Alameda

$county = County::fromFips('06037');
echo $county->name; // Los Angeles
echo $county->getState()->name; // California

Both classes have four common static methods:

• fromAny((string $value) - Get a State or County object from any identifier. Function will attempt to guess the type of identifier.
• fromName(string $name) - Get the State or County object from its name.
• fromAbbr(string $abbreviation) - Get the State object from its abbreviation.
• fromFips(string $fips) - Get the County object from its FIPS code.

Finally, both classes are connected, meaning you can get the State object from a County object and vice versa.

• State:: getCounties() - This will fetch all the counties for the state.
• County:: $state - State object is available as a property.

Running for development with Docker

We have included a Dockerfile to make it easy to run the tests and debug the code. You must have Docker installed. The following commands will build the image and run the container:

1. docker build -t lyonstahl/fips --build-arg PHP_VERSION=8 .
2. docker run -it --rm -v ${PWD}:/var/www/app lyonstahl/fips sh

Debugging with XDebug in VSCode

Docker image is configured with XDebug. To debug the code with VSCode, follow these steps:

1. Install the PHP Debug extension in VSCode

2. Add a new PHP Debug configuration in VSCode:

   {
       "name": "XDebug Docker",
       "type": "php",
       "request": "launch",
       "port": 9003,
       "pathMappings": {
           "/var/www/app/": "${workspaceRoot}/"
       }
   }
   

3. docker run -it --rm -v ${PWD}:/var/www/app --add-host host.docker.internal:host-gateway lyonstahl/fips sh

4. Start debugging in VSCode with the 'XDebug Docker' configuration.

Testing

This library ships with PHPUnit for development. Composer file has been configured with some scripts, run the following command to run the tests:

composer test
