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

[](#installation)

The recommended way to install Docker PHP is of course to use [Composer](http://getcomposer.org/):

```
composer require beluga-php/docker-php
```

Docker API Version
------------------

[](#docker-api-version)

By default it will use the last version of docker api available, if you want to fix a version (like 1.41) you can add this requirement to composer:

```
composer require "beluga-php/docker-php-api:6.1.41.*"
```

Usage
-----

[](#usage)

See [the documentation](http://docker-php.readthedocs.org/en/latest/).

Unit Tests
----------

[](#unit-tests)

Setup the test suite using [Composer](http://getcomposer.org/) if not already done:

```
$ composer install --dev

```

Run it using [PHPUnit](http://phpunit.de/):

```
$ composer test

```
