Overview
========

[](#overview)

This package, 'project-installer' is created to easy the process of creating a new git repository from the command-line. Sometimes these git repositories are not submited to Packagist, so you can't really run those using composer require. This will make it easy to do so

Requirements
------------

[](#requirements)

To use this command you need to have composer installed on your machine. Instructions are here:

Also, although not required, since you are dealing with git, it is best to use Git-Bash for these commands, especially if you are running Windows. To download, head over to

Installation
------------

[](#installation)

At the command prompt type (or just copy and paste the line):

```
    composer global require thehilkiah/project-installer dev-master --prefer-source

```

This will install the "inst" command on the composer global space. When prompted follow the instructions to complete.

### !!!IMPORTANT!!!

[](#important)

After installation, go to lib/packages and add all repositories you wish to run using this command

Usage
-----

[](#usage)

Just type the following command to start the cloning process:

```
   inst

```

If you wish to specify a directory to speed things up just replace *<dir>* below with the name of the directory you wish to clone your new repository into.

```
    inst

```

By default, this command will first check if there is a newer version of this install and automatically install it. To skip this processs, you can issue a skip flag to the command to skip updating

```
    inst  --skip

```

Or, in short,

```
    inst  -s

```

Other flags you can use are:

```
   --help, or -h            show this page, or a help section for this 'skw' command
   --default or -d          run 'inst' command faster, using all the defaults at each prompt

```
