Picnik is a simple PHP client for the Wordnik API, that is Composer and PSR-4 compatible.
Its only dependencies are the GuzzleHttp client and PHP >= 5.4.
The initial goal is to support the word selection of methods.
Currently, the /word.json/{word} and /word.json/{word}/definitions API
methods are implemented.
In order to use the client, you will first need to obtain an API key from Wordnik.
The client is pretty simple to use,
$client = new Picnik\Client;
$client->setApiKey('foobar');
$definitions = $client->wordDefinitions('cat')
->limit(1)
->includeRelated(false)
->useCanonical(true)
->get();
var_dump( count($definitions) );
// int(1)
var_dump( $definitions[0]->text )
// string(189) "A small carnivorous mammal (Felis catus or F. domesticus)
// domesticated since early times as a catcher of rats and mice and as a pet
// and existing in several distinctive breeds and varieties."This library is released under the MIT license. For details, you can refer to the full license document.
