igdb's Issues

Hi.

I have this error when try to do something
Unresolvable dependency resolving [Parameter #0 [ <required> $key ]] in class Messerli90\IGDB\IGDB

Default searchGame() ordering should be blank, not release date

Hey nice API wrapper!,

I noticed that in the following line of code:

igdb/src/IGDB.php

Line 282 in 8c9ee67

public function searchGames($search, $fields = ['*'], $limit = 10, $offset = 0, $order = 'release_dates.date:desc')

You set the default search ordering to be 'release_dates.date:desc'. 9 times out of 10, I think this produces results you don't want, for example, upon searching "The Witcher 3", I get this:

[ { "id": 2933, "name": "Kingdom Hearts III" }, { "id": 13165, "name": "The Guild 3" }, { "id": 12579, "name": "Danganronpa V3: Killing Harmony" }, { "id": 7333, "name": "Crackdown 3" }, { "id": 18980, "name": "Warhammer 40,000: Dawn of War III" }, { "id": 11806, "name": "Dark Cloud 3" }, { "id": 17583, "name": "SpellForce 3" }, { "id": 13215, "name": "Cossacks 3" }, { "id": 13163, "name": "Syberia 3" }, { "id": 11542, "name": "Shenmue III" } ]

Whereby the real result I clearly wanted is absent, since the game is "too old".

I'd recommend changing it to be "null" since the ordering is not a required parameter, but I'm not sure if that will break your code. (I am currently using my own API wrapper).

config

there is no config folder ?

Laravel?

Hi, what ist Laravel?
Do I need this for my simple php script to use this API?

Non-static method should not be called statically

Hi, I have this error

Non-static method Messerli90\IGDB\IGDB::searchGames() should not be called statically

$games = IGDB::searchGames($pQuery);

Expand igdb class

Hi,

maybe it would be helpful, if the methods [getEndpoint, decodeSingle, decodeMultiple, apiGet] will be declared as protected instead of private, to expand the class by extending from it.
