Grab the latest release via the Apigility website and/or the releases page. At the time of this writing, that URI is:

• https://github.com/zfcampus/zf-apigility-skeleton/releases/download/0.6.0/zf-apigility-skeleton.tgz

Untar it:

    tar xzf zf-apigility-skeleton.tgz

You can use the create-project command from Composer to create the project in one go:

    curl -s https://getcomposer.org/installer | php --
    php composer.phar create-project -sdev zfcampus/zf-apigility-skeleton path/to/install

First, clone the repository:

    git clone https://github.com/zfcampus/zf-apigility-skeleton.git # optionally, specify the directory in which to clone
    cd path/to/install

At this point, you need to use Composer to install dependencies. Assuming you already have Composer:

    composer.phar install

Once you have the basic installation, you need to put it in development mode:

    cd path/to/install
    php public/index.php development enable # put the skeleton in development mode

Now, fire it up! Do one of the following:

• Create a vhost in your web server that points the DocumentRoot to the public/ directory of the project
• Fire up the built-in web server in PHP (5.4.8+) (note: do not use this for production!)

In the latter case, do the following:

    cd path/to/install
    php -S 0:8080 -t public/ public/index.php

You can then visit the site at http://localhost:8080/ - which will bring up a welcome page and the ability to visit the dashboard in order to create and inspect your APIs.

PHP's built-in web server did not start supporting the PATCH HTTP method until 5.4.8. Since the admin API makes use of this HTTP method, you must use a version >= 5.4.8 when using the built-in web server.
