chuck-norris-joke-package
=========================

[](#chuck-norris-joke-package)

Laravel package that returns a chuck norris joke via an artisan command

You can install using `composer require sam/tell-a-joke -W`

`-W` ensures proper upgrades, downgrades and removals for packages currently locked to specific versions in order to be compatible.

NOTE: This does require that your system use composer V2. It will not work with composer V1\*

Once installed you can utilize the package by running:

`php artisan chuck-norris`

That's all there is to it! Enjoy!
