Laravel REST API Calls To Wild Apricot Club System > How to access using WA structure ..

Hi. Just getting started with Laravel and encouraged with what I have seen thus far. Maybe getting ahead of myself, but figured I would ask nevertheless. Intent is to build out a sms/messaging wrapper application around Wild Apricot, which is a club/organization membership application. It has it's set of API's and below is an example of a php application that invokes their contacts api and extracts the first 10 active contacts in the system. Of course - there are so many more, but what I would like to pose as a question is how to best refactor that code into Laravel?

Essentially the sampleApplication sets up a Wild Apricot WaAPIClient helper class that is used the in the subsequent calls that are invoked by standard php. I presume this would be pretty standard for also all the other API's that would be required..

.. so being new to Laravel, I wanted to check with the Oracle and guru here to see if there are any ideas on how to best set this up using Laravel's structure. Been trying to google and search for clues on this, but not found much. Will give it a crack, but thought also asking would be pertinent.

Being my first day really on the forum, I can't post any links.. else I would have included the sample code etc. here. But googling > sampleApplication +wild +apricot +github < gives you the sample code there. This sample application is a sample php app that interacts with a running Wild Apricot system and outputs the first 10 active contacts in the WA member database.

Any assistance would be greatly appreciated..
