# Laravel-Lazy-Rest

This package provides loading of RESTful paginated resources using Laravel LazyCollection capabilities. In this way, no complicate mechanisms for on-demand paginated data handling is required because the package manages all the complexity transparently for you, and only if required.

```php
$paginatedEndpoint = 'http://api.with-15-elements-per-page';

$collection = \LazyRest::load($paginatedEndpoint);

// Loads only first page
dump($collection->skip(10)->first());

// loads all the pages
dump($collection->last());
```

## 1. Installation
To install the package, run the command

`composer require robertogallea/laravel-lazy-rest`

ServiceProvider and Facade alias included in the package are autoloaded automatically using Laravel auto-discovery
service.

## 2. Configuration
By default, the package is configured to search for `data` field in the json response and `next_page_url` to detect how
to fetch the next page of results. However you could easily change this behavior by overriding default configuration:

1. Publish config:
`php artisan vendor:publish --provider="robertogallea\LaravelLazyRest\LazyRestServiceProvider" --tag=config`

2. Edit `config/lazy-rest.php`
```php
'fields' => [
'next_page_url' => 'next_page_url',
'data' => 'data',

'timeout' => 5.0,
];
```
if your data are in the root of the response use `_` character as field name (even though this means your endpoint
doesn't provide paginated data.
