The Console package provides the infrastructure for building command line applications with the Joomla! Framework.

Installation via Composer
-------------------------

[](#installation-via-composer)

Add `"joomla/console": "~3.0"` to the require block in your composer.json and then run `composer install`.

```
{
	"require": {
		"joomla/console": "~3.0"
	}
}
```

Alternatively, you can simply run the following from the command line:

```
composer require joomla/console "~3.0"
```

If you want to include the test sources and docs, use

```
composer require --prefer-source joomla/console "~3.0"
```
