Hello Dolly Composer Package

A very basic and primitive "Hello world"-style script and a tribute to WordPress's default plugin.

Usage

1. Install Composer if you haven't already.
2. Add "bobloco/hellodolly": "*" to your composer.json file
3. Run composer update
4. Add the following to the list of service providers (found in app/config/app.php in Laravel)

'Bobloco\Hellodolly\HellodollyServiceProvider',

1. If you're using Laravel, you can add the following to the aliases in app/config/app.php, and then use HelloDolly::output(); to return a line.

'HelloDolly'	  => 'Bobloco\Hellodolly\Facades\Hellodolly',

Please note that this package is primarily designed to teach you about how composer packages work, particularly with regard to integration into Laravel. Take a look at the code, and see what you make of it. At some point I'll get 'round to writing it all step-by-step, but for the moment this will have to do.
