# Installation

The bundle can be installed using the package `spomky-labs/web-push-bundle`

```bash
composer require spomky-labs/web-push-bundle
```

If you use Symfony Flex, the bundle is ready to be used. Otherwise, you must enable it. The bundle class is `WebPush\Bundle\WebPushBundle`.

When done, the bundle is ready and can send the notifications. However, there are extra packages we highly recommend to install and set up.

## VAPID Header

The [VAPID header](/3.0.x/common-concepts/vapid.md) authenticates your server and prevent malicious application to send notifications to your users. The header contains a signed JSON Web Token (JWS).

The library provides bridges for the following libraries `web-token` and `lcobucci/jwt`.

Please install `web-token/jwt-signature-algorithm-ecdsa` or `lcobucci/jwt` depending on the library you want to use.

{% hint style="info" %}
It is possible to use any other JWS provider. This will be detailed in the future.
{% endhint %}

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the following URL with the `ask` and `goal` query parameters:

```
GET https://web-push.spomky-labs.com/3.0.x/the-symfony-bundle/installation.md?ask=<question>&goal=<user_goal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is what the user is ultimately trying to achieve, the reason they need the answer. Sharing it helps GitBook give you a better, more relevant answer. A goal is most helpful when it describes the outcome the user wants rather than restating the question. For example, with `ask=how do I create an API token`, a goal like `automate deployments from our CI pipeline` lets GitBook tailor the answer to that use case.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
