Installation

First make sure your system has composer installed.

composer require yousuf/chatman

If you get any error like this :

Your requirements could not be resolved to an installable set of packages.

Problem 1
- Root composer.json requires yousuf/chatman ^1.0 -> satisfiable by yousuf/chatman[v1.0.0].
- yousuf/chatman v1.0.0 requires writecrow/lemmatizer dev-master -> found writecrow/lemmatizer[dev-master] but it does not match your minimum-stability.

Then run these commands :

composer require writecrow/lemmatizer:dev-master
composer require yousuf/chatman
