FAQ

After the download, you have to make one include require_once('vendor/autoload.php');. After that you have to import the classes with use statements.

Example:

If you use only one package a project is not needed. But if you use more then one package, without a project it is not possible to import the classes with use statements.

In general, it is recommended to use always a project to download your libraries. In an application normally there is more than one library needed.

Some PHP packages are not free to download and because of that hosted in private repositories. In this case some credentials are needed to access such packages. Please use the auth.json textarea to insert credentials, if a package is coming from a private repository. You can look here for more information.

Some hosting areas are not accessible by a terminal or SSH. Then it is not possible to use Composer.
To use Composer is sometimes complicated. Especially for beginners.
Composer needs much resources. Sometimes they are not available on a simple webspace.
If you are using private repositories you don't need to share your credentials. You can set up everything on our site and then you provide a simple download link to your team member.
Simplify your Composer build process. Use our own command line tool to download the vendor folder as binary. This makes your build process faster and you don't need to expose your credentials for private repositories.

Please rate this library. Is it a good library?

Quickstart

1) Install

2) Publish (optional) and migrate

Interactions-Only Mode

If you only need interactions (Follow, Like, Favorite, Subscribe, Vote, View, Report, Rate) and don't need Friendships or Verifications, disable them in config/acquaintances.php:

This prevents friendship and verification migrations from being loaded or published, keeping your database lean.

You can also publish migrations for specific features using granular tags:

Custom User Model Location

If your User model lives in a non-standard namespace (e.g., App\Models\Core\User), set user_model_class_name in config/acquaintances.php:

When null (default), the package resolves the user model from model_namespace + models.user (i.e., App\Models\User).

3) Add traits to your models

Explore the feature guides linked above for full APIs and examples.
