## Installation
```bash
$ composer require mnapoli/silly
```
## Usage
Example of a Silly application:
```php
use Symfony\Component\Console\Output\OutputInterface;
$app = new Silly\Application();
$app->command('greet [name] [--yell]', function ($name, $yell, OutputInterface $output) {
$text = $name ? "Hello, $name" : "Hello";
if ($yell) {
$text = strtoupper($text);
}
$output->writeln($text);
});
$app->run();
```
Running the application is the same as running any other Symfony Console application:
```bash
$ php application.php greet
Hello
$ php application.php greet john --yell
HELLO JOHN
$ php application.php greet --yell john
HELLO JOHN
```
`Silly\Application` extends `Symfony\Console\Application` and can be used wherever Symfony's Application can.
