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

[](#installation)

Run the following to install this library:

```
$ composer require zendframework/zend-mvc-plugin-identity
```

If you are using the [zend-component-installer](https://docs.zendframework.com/zend-component-installer/), you're done!

If not, you will need to add the component as a module to your application. Add the entry `'Zend\Mvc\Plugin\Identity'` to your list of modules in your application configuration (typically one of `config/application.config.php` or `config/modules.config.php`).
