Instalation

microcell is available on composer. To install it, type:

Via ApiHawk Installer

composer global require "apihawk/installer"

Make sure to place composer's system-wide vendor bin directory in your $PATH so the ApiHawk executable can be located by your system. This directory exists in different locations based on your operating system. On macOS and GNU/Linux distributions, it's $HOME/.composer/vendor/bin. To edit the $PATH:

MacOS: sudo nano /etc/paths

Once installed, the apihawk new-cell command will create a fresh MicroCell installation in the directory you specify. For instance, apihawk new-cell YourVendorName will create a directory named YourVendorNameCell containing a fresh MircoCell installation with all of MicroCell's dependencies already installed:

apihawk new-cell YourVendorName

Via Composer Create-Project

composer create-project --prefer-dist apihawk/microcell YourVendorName
