Overview
The package provides an object oriented model to communicate with
Yahoo's web services via their
REST-based XML interface.
Currently the package only supports the Yahoo! Search Web Services,
which is natural because Yahoo! does not expose other services via
their API at the moment. Due to the modular layout
of the package it is easy to add support for other services at a
later point though. More information about the design of the package
is available in a separate
section.
Setup
Requirements
Services_Yahoo requires PHP 5 and a bunch of PEAR packages. For a
complete list of dependencies please see the download
page.
Installation
The Services_Yahoo package can be installed
using the PEAR installer command pear install
Services_Yahoo. If the installation fails due to missing
dependencies, one either needs to install them manually or can make
the installer fetch all dependencies automatically: pear
install -a Services_Yahoo.
Uninstallation
Uninstalling the package can be done with pear uninstall
Services_Yahoo.
