# Getting started with boll

# Install

To install, add @boll/cli as a dev dependency to your package with your package manager of choice.

npm install --save-dev @boll/cli

# Configure

Next, run the init command to generate a configuration file that will be used when boll runs.

npx boll init

This command will create a configuration file called .boll.config.js in your current directory, implementing the recoommended configuration by default. It should look like the following.

"use strict";
module.exports = {
  extends: "boll:recommended"
};

# Run

To run boll, simply pass the run command.

npx boll run

If everything is configured successfully and your project contains no boll violations, the command will exit with no output and an exit status of 0.
