Usage

Getting Started

Simply Require the autoload file and then pull in what Supermarkets you are looking for.

require_once 'lib/autoload.php';
$sains = new Boozio\Supermarkets\Sainsburys();
$asda = new Boozio\Supermarkets\Asda();
$tesco = new Boozio\Supermarkets\Tesco();
$waitrose = new Boozio\Supermarkets\Waitrose();
$morrisons = new Boozio\Supermarkets\Morrisons();
$ocado = new Boozio\Supermarkets\Ocado();

You can pull in as many or as little supermarkets as you like.

Performing a Request

All you need is the unique ID the supermarkets use for each product and pass it to the ````fetch()``` command

$bombay_sapphire_1l = (object) array(
          "tesco" => 252695240,
          "asda" => 512843,
          "waitrose" => 34657,
          "morrisons" => 217561011,
          "ocado" => 23690011,
          "sainsburys" => 18718
      );
$item = $ocado->fetch($bombay_sapphire_1l->ocado);

````$item``` will then contain a Basket Item Object.

The Basket Item Object

Once you have a Basket Object you can run the following commands to get the data

  echo "SKU: ".$item->get_sku()."\n";
  echo "Supermarket:".$item->get_supermarket()."\n";
  echo "Item Name:".$item->get_item_name()."\n";
  echo "Price:".$item->get_price()."\n";
  echo "On Offer:".$item->get_on_offer()."\n";
  echo "To JSON:".$item->toJSON()."\n\n";
  echo "To XML:\n\n".$item->toXML()."\n";
  echo "To Array:\n\n";
  print_r($item->toArray());

This will give you the following output;

        SKU: 23690011
        Supermarket: Ocado
        Item Name: Bombay Sapphire Gin 
        Price: 18.00
        On Offer: yes
        To JSON: {"sku":23690011,"supermarket":"Ocado","item_name":"Bombay Sapphire Gin ","price":"18.00","on_offer":"yes"}

        To XML: 

        <?xml version="1.0"?>
        <root><sku>23690011</sku><supermarket>Ocado</supermarket><item_name>Bombay Sapphire Gin </item_name><price>18.00</price><on_offer>yes</on_offer></root>

        To Array: 

        Array
        (
            [sku] => 23690011
            [supermarket] => Ocado
            [item_name] => Bombay Sapphire Gin 
            [price] => 18.00
            [on_offer] => yes
        )
