Composer "require" implies "install", also suggest installing the latest stable version instead.

Psalm is a static analysis tool for finding errors in PHP applications.
- **v0.3.x** supports checking PHP 5.4 - 7.1 code, and requires **PHP 5.5+** to run.
- **v0.2.x** supports checking PHP 5.4 - 7.0 code and requires **PHP 5.4+** to run.
Check out the [wiki](https://github.com/vimeo/psalm/wiki) or [try a live demo](https://getpsalm.org/)!
## Quickstart Guide
Install via [Composer](https://getcomposer.org/):
```bash
composer require --dev vimeo/psalm
```
Add a `psalm.xml` config:
```bash
cat > psalm.xml << EOF
<?xml version="1.0"?>
<psalm
stopOnFirstError="false"
useDocblockTypes="true"
>
<projectFiles>
<directory name="src" />
</projectFiles>
<issueHandlers>
<MissingReturnType errorLevel="info" />
<MissingClosureReturnType errorLevel="info" />
<MissingPropertyType errorLevel="info" />
</issueHandlers>
</psalm>
EOF
```
Then run Psalm with:
```bash
./vendor/bin/psalm
```
The above config is fairly spartan, and will show you *all* possible errors, including many that might be irrelevant to you. A more lenient config is provided [here](examples/psalm.default.xml), and you can learn about how to suppress certain issues [here](https://github.com/vimeo/psalm/wiki/Dealing-with-code-issues).
