Installation Instructions
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

In order to ease the installation of third-party bundles, consider using the
following standardized instructions in your ``README.md`` file.

.. code-block:: text

Installation
============

Step 1: Download the Bundle
---------------------------

Open a command console, enter your project directory and execute the
following command to download the latest stable version of this bundle:

```bash
$ composer require <package-name> "~1"
```

This command requires you to have Composer installed globally, as explained
in the [installation chapter](https://getcomposer.org/doc/00-intro.md)
of the Composer documentation.

Step 2: Enable the Bundle
-------------------------

Then, enable the bundle by adding the following line in the `app/AppKernel.php`
file of your project:

```php
<?php
// app/AppKernel.php

// ...

public function registerBundles()
{
$bundles = array(
// ...
return new <vendor>\<bundle-name>\<bundle-long-name>(),
);
}
```

This template assumes that your bundle is in its ``1.x`` version. If not, change
the ``"~1"`` installation version accordingly (``"~2"``, ``"~3"``, etc.)

Optionally, you can add more installation steps (*Step 3*, *Step 4*, etc.) to
explain other required installation tasks, such as registering routes or
dumping assets.
