Installation

composer require gplacesphp/api-client

Usage

This examples uses php-http/guzzle6-adapter as a PSR-18 implementation and zendframework/zend-diactoros as a PSR-7/PSR-17 implementation. Any other PSR-7/PSR-17/PSR-18 implementations are supported. If you don't have them installed you will need to run:

composer require \
    guzzlehttp/guzzle \
    php-http/guzzle6-adapter \
    zendframework/zend-diactoros

Remember to replace <YOUR_API_KEY> with you key.
