Laravel
Best way to consume external api
I'm building a web app around a external api. What is the best way to organize the logic? Is ok to do something like this:
class TestService {
public function getItemById($id) {
}
public function getAll() {
}
}
and call these functions inside the controller

You might want to take a look at Saloon.
It allows you to create SDK like integrations with any API and provides the ability to create a wrapper pretty much like what you're doing manually here.
At first, it might seem a little overwhelming (depending on how complex you need the functionality to be), but reading through the docs should make it click.
