#### Introduction

[](#introduction)

Spear is a convinient PHP package that allows you to execute code in many different languages. It's simple to use and easy to install.

#### Getting Started

[](#getting-started)

To get started using `Spear` you need to install it as a dependency in your php project using composer:

```
  composer require redberry/spear
```

and you're good to go 🙏

#### How to Use

[](#how-to-use)

Using `Spear` is a piece of cake procedure. you just need to instantiate `Spear` class and execute any available language code you'd like. The key concepts of the `Spear` are:

- `Spear` class which does the coordination between different language handler and returning actual output.
- Handler - on `Spear` class you can choose desired handler. Choosing handler is same as choosing with which language you'd like the code to be executed
- Every handler returns the output which has three kinds of information: success output, error output, exit code

Let's see how would we implement handling node code without input:
