Purpose
-------

[](#purpose)

[Finite State Machine(FSM)](http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Finite-state_machine) for php.

Good reads on the topic:

- [Why developers should be force-fed state machines](http://www.shopify.com/technology/3383012-why-developers-should-be-force-fed-state-machines)
- [Why Developers Never Use State Machines](http://www.skorks.com/2011/09/why-developers-never-use-state-machines/)

Requirements and installation
-----------------------------

[](#requirements-and-installation)

- PHP 7.0+

Install the library via [Composer](http://getcomposer.org/):

`./composer.phar require shrink0r/worklfux [optional version]`

Adding it manually as a vendor library requirement to the `composer.json` file of your project works as well:

```
{
    "require": {
        "shrink0r/worklfux": "^1.0"
    }
}
```

Alternatively, you can download a release archive from the [available releases](https://github.com/shrink0r/worklfux/releases) page.
