If you use only one package a project is not needed. But if you use more then one package, without a project it is not possible to import the classes with use statements.

In general, it is recommended to use always a project to download your libraries. In an application normally there is more than one library needed.
Some PHP packages are not free to download and because of that hosted in private repositories. In this case some credentials are needed to access such packages. Please use the auth.json textarea to insert credentials, if a package is coming from a private repository. You can look here for more information.

  • Some hosting areas are not accessible by a terminal or SSH. Then it is not possible to use Composer.
  • To use Composer is sometimes complicated. Especially for beginners.
  • Composer needs much resources. Sometimes they are not available on a simple webspace.
  • If you are using private repositories you don't need to share your credentials. You can set up everything on our site and then you provide a simple download link to your team member.
  • Simplify your Composer build process. Use our own command line tool to download the vendor folder as binary. This makes your build process faster and you don't need to expose your credentials for private repositories.

Informations about the package pollen

🇩🇰🤧 Pollen measurements from Astma-Allergi Denmark

Astma-Allergi Denmark does unfortunately not offer an official API for the latest pollen measurements in Denmark.

This package is (in some form) a workaround for that. It fetches the latest measurements and short-term predictions directly from Astma-Allergi Denmark's data feed and turns it into structured, typed data objects.

The returned data shows the measured pollen between 13:00 (UTC +1) (1:00 PM) yesterday and 13:00 (UTC +1) (1:00 PM) present day. Every day at 16:30 (UTC +1) (4:30 PM), at the latest, the new measurements are being published.

⚠️ Disclaimer

Since Astma-Allergi Denmark is an independent union, with a very little government funding, this package is made available under a very strict license, which prohibits any use other than personal.

If you wish to use the pollen measurements commercially, you should contact Astma-Allergi Denmark directly and support them by buying the data instead. The payment goes directly to the maintenance and further development of their Pollen measurement service.

For more info about a commercial license, visit their official website.

Return data structure

Single station

When a $station is provided, get() returns a Collection keyed by allergen code. Each value is either a Collection with measurement data, or null if the allergen is currently out of season.

All stations

When no $station is provided, get() returns a Collection keyed by station value ('east', 'west'), where each entry contains the station's allergen measurements as described above.

🗣 Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

What is this Illuminate\Support\Collection class and how does it work?

All data is returned within an Illuminate\Support\Collection. This is the same Collection class used by the Laravel framework, available as a standalone package — so no Laravel installation is required.

Please refer to Laravel's detailed documentation to learn more about how you work with a Collection:
