About

This package uses kitetail/zttp which is a lightweight Guzzle client.

$ composer require jeffochoa/laravel-wordpress-client

Config

Publish the config file:

$ php artisan vendor:publish --laravel-wordpress

Add your wordpress site API endpoint to the .env file

WP_API_URL=

How to use?

Here you have a list of the available methods:

$wordpress = new WordpressClient();

$response = $wordpress->categories();
$response = $wordpress->media();
$response = $wordpress->pages();
$response = $wordpress->posts();
$response = $wordpress->statuses();
$response = $wordpress->tags();
$response = $wordpress->taxonomies();
$response = $wordpress->types();
$response = $wordpress->users();

Using via facade accessor

$response = Wordpress::categories();

Request params

All the methods receive an array to be use as part of the query

$response = Wordpress::posts(['page' => 1, 'per_page' => 1]);

Here you can get a list of the arguments that you can use on each request.

Parsing the responses

As an array:

$response = Wordpress::posts(['page' => 1, 'per_page' => 1])->json();

As a collection:

$response = Wordpress::posts(['page' => 1, 'per_page' => 1])->collection();

Testing

To run the tests you can clone this project then:

$ composer install

And finally you need to create your own phpunit.xml file

$ cp phpunit.example phpuni.xml

Don't forget to set the wordpress api endpoint in your phpunit.xml file

<env name="WP_API_URL" value="www.wordpress.dev/wp-json/wp/v2"/>
