README

This is a small client package wrapped around GuzzleHttp in order to simplify retrieving thumbnails of web pages as JPEGS via the PagePeeker.com service

Installation

Recommended installation is via composer

php composer.phar require vanqard/pagepeekr

Usage

After the package has been installed, usage is reasonable simple.

First, build up an array of parameters like this. (Note that only the sourceUrl parameter is required)

$params = [
    'sourceUrl' => 'https://phpbrilliance.com',
    // Optional parameters
    'targetFileName' => '/public/images/phpbrilliance_thumbnail.jpg',
    'thumbnailSize' => 't|s|m|l|x',
    'pollInterval' => 5 // I don't recommend changing the default
];

Then instantiate the client with the parameter array

$client = new \Vanqard\PagePeekr\Client($params);

And request the thumbnail from PagePeeker.com like so

$filename = $client->fetchThumbNail();

The $filename variable is populated with the path to the downloaded thumbnail.

Still to do

  • Unit tests
  • Added flexibility
