Mailchimp API w. support for Laravel

This package acts as an alternative mirror for the PHP class, for use with the MailChimp API, provided by MailChimp® Here.

The package supports use with the Laravel framework (v4) providing a Mailchimp facade.

###Setup:

In order to install add the following to your composer.json file within the require block:

"require": {
	…
	"hugofirth/mailchimp": "dev-master",
	…	
}

Within Laravel, locate the file ..app/config/app.php *.

Add the following to the providers array:

'providers' => array(
	…
	'Hugofirth\Mailchimp\MailchimpServiceProvider',
	…
),

Furthermore, add the following the the aliases array:

'aliases' => array(
	…
	'Mailchimp'       => 'Hugofirth\Mailchimp\Facades\Mailchimp',
	…
),

Publish the configuration

$ php artisan config:publish hugofirth/mailchimp

Lastly, run the command composer update.

* The subsequent steps should be repeated for any file app.php created for additional environments.

###Usage:

Your unique MailChimp API key should be set in the package's config found in app/config/packages/hugofirth/mailchimp/config.php

Methods of the MailChimp api class work as described by the MailChimp API docs found Here. Thanks to Laravel's use of the "Facade" design pattern, all methods may be called in the following manner:

…
//Retrieve an array of lists for your account
$lists = Mailchimp::lists();
…
//Subscribe a user, with email: $email_address, to a list with id: $list_id
Mailchimp::listSubscribe($list_id, $email_address);

Enjoy!
