Government Jobs PHP API Client

Project Overview

Use the Government Jobs Provider to connect your PHP application with the Government job board API.

Installation

Use composer: composer require jobapis/jobs-govt

Usage

Create a Query object and add all the parameters you’d like via the constructor.

1

4
// Add parameters to the query via the constructor
$query = new JobApis\Jobs\Client\Queries\GovtQuery([
'hl' => '1'
]);

Or via the “set” method. All of the parameters documented in the API’s documentation can be added.

1
2
// Add parameters via the set() method
$query->set('query', 'engineering');

You can even chain them if you’d like.

1
2
3
// Add parameters via the set() method
$query->set('size', '100')
->set('from', '200');

Note: The government jobs API doesn’t support adding location as a parameter, but their keyword or lat_lon parameters can be used for this purpose.

Then inject the query object into the provider.

1
2
// Instantiating provider with a query object
$client = new JobApis\Jobs\Client\Provider\GovtProvider($query);

And call the “getJobs” method to retrieve results.

1
2
// Get a Collection of Jobs
$jobs = $client->getJobs();

This will return a Collection of Job objects.
