Installation

To install Bob, from the base of your laravel project simply type :

php artisan bundle:install bob

And to activate the bundle, simply add 'bob' to the array in your application/bundles.php :

return array('bob', ... possible other stuff ..);

You can send commands to bob, using Laravel’s Artisan tool with the following syntax :

php artisan bob::build <generator> [args] [options]

However, I would recommend adding the following alias to your shell profile (.bashrc .zshrc .bash_profile .profile) :

alias bob="php artisan bob::build"

and now you can invoke Bob in a more elegant format :

bob <generator> [args] [options]

All examples within the documentation will use the shortened aliased version for clarity.
