google-image-search
You're able to query google for images using Google's new Custom Search API., (*1)
``` php
ImageSearch::config()->apiKey('API Goes Here');
ImageSearch::config()->cx('CX Goes Here');, (*2)
ImageSearch::search('civic'); // returns array of results, (*3)
## Requirements
You need to have an API key and a CX string, both can be found by taking a look here:
https://developers.google.com/custom-search/docs/overview
## Installation
Use composer to install
`composer require odannyc/google-image-search`
## Usage
Set your API and CX string using the config method:
```php
use odannyc\GoogleImageSearch\ImageSearch;
ImageSearch::config()->apiKey('API Goes Here');
ImageSearch::config()->cx('CX Goes Here');
Once that's done, use the search method to query a specific string of text, (*4)
ImageSearch::search('civic');
You can also pass in some filters as a second parameter as an array., (*5)
ImageSearch::search('civic', ['imgSize' => 'large']);
The list of filters can be found on Google's official site:, (*6)
https://developers.google.com/custom-search/json-api/v1/reference/cse/list, (*7)
It'll return an array of results. The images are specifically in the items key., (*8)
