CovidPHP is a PHP API wrapper for the Coronavirus tracker API.
Per default the data is provided by the Johns Hopkins University Center for Systems Science and Engineering (JHU CSSE), but you can also use csbs as source.
You can install o-ba/covid-php using Composer:
composer require o-ba/covid-php
Require the composer autoloader in your script:
require 'vendor/autoload.php';
Create a instance of the API wrapper first:
$covidApi = new \Bo\CovidPHP\CovidApi();
