• PHP >= 8.1
• Laravel >= 9.0

Follow these steps to install and set up the SharpAPI Laravel Skills Database API package.

1. Install the package via composer:

composer require sharpapi/laravel-skills-database-api

2. Register at SharpAPI.com to obtain your API key.

3. Set the API key in your .env file:

SHARP_API_KEY=your_api_key_here

4. [OPTIONAL] Publish the configuration file:

php artisan vendor:publish --tag=sharpapi-skills-database-api

• Skill Search: Search for skills by name or keyword.
• Skill Details: Get detailed information about specific skills.

You can inject the SkillsDatabaseApiService class to access the skills database functionality.

1. Search for Skills: Use searchSkills to find skills by name or keyword.
2. Get Skill Details: Use getSkillById to get detailed information about a specific skill.

Here is an example of how to use SkillsDatabaseApiService within a Laravel controller:

<?php

namespace App\Http\Controllers;

use GuzzleHttp\Exception\GuzzleException;
use SharpAPI\SkillsDatabaseApi\SkillsDatabaseApiService;

class SkillsController extends Controller
{
    protected SkillsDatabaseApiService $skillsService;

    public function __construct(SkillsDatabaseApiService $skillsService)
    {
        $this->skillsService = $skillsService;
    }

    /**
     * @throws GuzzleException
     */
    public function searchSkills(string $query)
    {
        $results = $this->skillsService->searchSkills($query);
        
        return response()->json($results);
    }

    /**
     * @throws GuzzleException
     */
    public function getSkillDetails(string $skillId)
    {
        $skill = $this->skillsService->getSkillById($skillId);
        
        return response()->json($skill);
    }
}

All requests are managed by Guzzle, so it's helpful to be familiar with Guzzle Exceptions.

Example:

use GuzzleHttp\Exception\ClientException;

try {
    $skills = $this->skillsService->searchSkills('programming');
} catch (ClientException $e) {
    echo $e->getMessage();
}

You can customize the configuration by setting the following environment variables in your .env file:

SHARP_API_KEY=your_api_key_here
SHARP_API_BASE_URL=https://sharpapi.com/api/v1
