PSR-8 Hug
=========

[](#psr-8-hug)

This repository holds all interfaces/classes/traits related to [PSR-8](https://github.com/php-fig/fig-standards/blob/master/proposed/psr-8-hug/psr-8-hug.md).

Note that this is not a huggable of its own. It is merely an interface that describes a huggable. See the specification for more details.

Installation
------------

[](#installation)

```
composer require astrotomic/psr-8
```

Usage
-----

[](#usage)

If you need to hug, you can use the interface like this:

```
use Astrotomic\Hug\Huggable;

class HugController
{
    public function __invoke(Huggable $hugger, Huggable $huggable)
    {
        $hugger->hug($huggable);
    }
}
```
