Twingly Search API PHP

A PHP library for Twingly's Search API (previously known as Analytics API). Twingly is a blog search service that provides a searchable API known as Twingly Search API.

Installation

Install via Composer

php composer.phar require twingly/twingly-search

# Or if you have installed composer globally
composer require twingly/twingly-search

Usage

use Twingly\Client;

$client = new Client();

$query = $client->query();
$query->search_query = 'github page-size:10 lang:sv';
$result = $query->execute();

foreach($result->posts as $post) {
    echo $post->url . "\n";
}

The twingly-search library talks to a commercial blog search API and requires an API key. Best practice is to set the TWINGLY_SEARCH_KEY environment variable to the obtained key. \Twingly\Client can be passed a key at initialization if your setup does not allow environment variables.

This library is documented with phpdoc. To generate documentation call

phpdoc -d ./src -t ./docs

Example code can be found in examples/.

To learn more about the capabilities of the API, please read the Twingly Search API documentation.
