aanbieders/laravel-api

Laravel package to recover information of the Aanbieders.be Comparison service provider, using the Aanbieders API

Aanbieders.be comparison API

This package offers the Laravel integration of the Aanbieders.be comparison collection API. This API can be used by partners and affiliates of Aanbieders to leverage information from the Aanbieders comparison calculation engine on their own websites., _(*1)

Installation

Pull this package in through Composer., _(*2)

    {
        "require": {
            " aanbieders/laravel-api": "4.*"
        }
    }

Next, you will need to add several values to your .env file:, _(*3)

    AB_CRM_URL=http://foo.com/bar           // URL to the Aanbieders CRM system
    API_staging=false                       // Is this a staging server?
    API_key=your_public_api_key             // Public API key
    API_secret=your_secret_api_key          // Private API key

In order to use the API (and thus this package), an API key is required. If you are in need of such a key, please get in touch with Aanbieders.be via their website., _(*4)

Usage

Add the API service provider to your config/app.php file, _(*5)

    'providers'         => array(

        //...
        'Aanbieders\Api\ApiServiceProvider',

    ),

Add the API as an alias to your config/app.php file, _(*6)

    'facades'           => array(

        //...
        'Api'               => 'Aanbieders\Api\Facades\Api',

    ),

Once this is done, you can access the API using the alias you have selected in your config/app.php file:, _(*7)

    $products = Api::getProducts(
        array(
            'sg'        => 'consumer',
            'cat'       => 'internet',
            'lang'      => 'nl'
        )
    );

    $suppliers = Api::getSuppliers(
        array(
            'sg'        => 'consumer',
            'cat'       => 'internet',
            'lang'      => 'nl'
        )
    );

    $comparisons = Api::getComparisons(
        array(
            'sg'        => 'consumer',
            'cat'       => 'gas',
            'lang'      => 'nl',
            'u'         => '4000',
            'ut'        => 'kwh',
            'zip'       => '3540',
            't'         => 'no',
            'd'         => '0'
        )
    );

    $contract = Api::getContract(63);
