RestEasy

A simple library to make restful curl requests., _(*2)

Install

You can install it by downloading the zip and including it in your project or, preferably, using Composer., _(*3)

{
    "require": {
        "belsrc/rest-easy": "dev-master"
    }
}

If you are using Laravel you can also include the ServiceProvider in the app/config/app.php 'providers' array., _(*4)

    'Belsrc\RestEasy\RestEasyServiceProvider'

as well as the Facade in the 'aliases' array., _(*5)

    'RestEasy' => 'Belsrc\RestEasy\Facades\RestEasy'

Quick Example

Route::get('/', function() {
    $headers = array(
        'Content-Type: text/html',
        'Accept: text/html',
        'Accept-Charset: utf-8',
        'Accept-Language: en-US'
    );
    $tmp = RestEasy::get( 'http://laravel.com/', $headers );
    echo $tmp->body;
});

RestEasy Methods

Just four easy methods to remember, _(*6)

RestEasy::get($url, $headers)
RestEasy::post($url, $headers, $data)
RestEasy::put($url, $headers, $data)
RestEasy::delete($url, $headers)

with the response being an instance of the CurlResponse object having a few simple properties., _(*7)

CurlResponse::getBody()
CurlResponse::getInfo()
CurlResponse::getError()

all of which can also be called like normal properties., _(*8)

$response->body
$response->info
