Install ------- [](#install) Using Composer: `composer require league/tactician` Plugins ------- [](#plugins) The core Tactician package is small but there are several plugin packages that extend the usefulness of Tactician: - [Logger](https://github.com/thephpleague/tactician-logger): Adds PSR-3 logging support for receiving, completing or failing commands. - [Container](http://github.com/thephpleague/tactician-container): Lazy load handlers from any container implementing container-interop. - [Doctrine](https://github.com/thephpleague/tactician-doctrine): Wraps commands in separate Doctrine ORM transactions. - [Bernard](https://github.com/thephpleague/tactician-bernard): Allows queuing your commands in the background, using [the Bernard Queuing library](https://github.com/bernardphp/bernard). - [Command Events](https://github.com/thephpleague/tactician-command-events): Fires events for all major moments in the command life-cycle. - [Locking](http://tactician.thephpleague.com/plugins/locking-middleware/): Only allows one command to be executed at a time. - [and many more](https://packagist.org/search/?q=tactician) Framework Integration --------------------- [](#framework-integration) There are a number of framework integration packages for Tactician, [search for Tactician on Packagist](https://packagist.org/search/?q=tactician) for the most up-to-date listings.
