Requiring / Loading

If you're using Composer to manage dependencies, you can include the following in your composer.json file:

"require": {
    "unaliaser/unaliaser": "dev-master"
}

Then, after running composer update or php composer.phar update, you can load the class using Composer's autoloading:

require 'vendor/autoload.php';

Otherwise, you can simply require the file directly:

require_once 'path/to/Unaliaser/src/Unaliaser/Unaliaser.php';
