Installation

Install the package through Composer. Edit your project's composer.json file by adding:

"require": {
	"trendylabs/shortener": "dev-master"
}

Next, run the Composer update command from the Terminal:

composer update

Add the Service Provider. To do this open your config/app.php file.

Add a new line to the service providers array:

TrendyLabs\Shortener\ShortenerServiceProvider::class,

And a new line to the aliases array:

'Shortener' => TrendyLabs\Shortener\Facade::class,

Now you need to publish config file:

php artisan vendor:publish

Then you can edit your Google API Keys

Now you're ready to get short URLs via Googl Shortener:

// get short url
\Shortener::short($url);

// get Google response
\Shortener::response($url);
