This package was brought into existence because of this package, specifically because of the first enhancement
This library is a Guzzle based interface for the Ziptastic API.
Using Ziptastic requires an API key, you can get one by signing up with Ziptastic.
Ziptastic PHP can be installed via composer:
composer require ziptastic/fluent
There are two different ways to use this package with the same end result.
The first way to use this is by using Zipper which will be using a more "plain english" oriented syntax
<?php
include "vendor/autoload.php";
use Ziptastic\Fluent\Zipper;
$key = 'Your Api Key from ziptastic';
$results = (new Zipper)->in('US')->withPostalCode(48867)->andWithKey($key)->find();
echo $results->response;
?>If that isn't your cup of tea or you just want to get things done, you can use Ziptastic
<?php
include "vendor/autoload.php";
use Ziptastic\Fluent\Ziptastic;
$key = 'Your Api Key from ziptastic';
$results = (new Ziptastic(23042,'us'))->setKey($key)->find();
echo $results->response;
?>If you wanted to, you can access any and all of the results of the api call via calling the item you want from the api response.

echo $results->city, ', ',$results->state,' ',$results->postal_code;
?>And in that example the only one set by default is the postal code, the others are from the response.
