# Welcome to php-opencloud!

## Installation

You must install this library through Composer:

    composer require rackspace/php-opencloud

If you do not have Composer installed, please consult the official docs.

Once you have installed the library, you will need to load Composer’s autoloader (which registers all the required namespaces). To do this, place the following line of PHP code at the top of your application’s PHP files:

    require 'vendor/autoload.php';

This assumes your application’s PHP files are located in the same folder as `vendor/`. If your files are located elsewhere, please supply the path to `vendor/autoload.php` in the require statement above.

Read the Getting Started with OpenStack or Getting Started with Rackspace to help you get started with basic Compute operations.

Note

If you are running PHP 5.3, please see our Using the SDK with PHP v5.3 guide.
