🚀 Installation Pattern

All premium modules follow a consistent installation workflow using either CommandBox / BoxLang CLI. Our recommended approach is CommandBox as it takes care of all dependencies.

Via CommandBox CLI

# Install bx-plus as a dependency for license management and the target module.
box install <module-name>

Via BoxLang OS Binary

# Install bx-plus module first to enable license management
install-bx-module bx-plus
# Then install other modules
install-bx-module <module-name>

After installation, modules register themselves automatically or provide a simple activation step described in their documentation.

🧪 Common Usage Flow

1. Install module.
2. Configure via boxlang.json, environment variables, or runtime API. Each module can have different configuration needs; refer to individual module docs for specifics.
3. Inject or call provided services/components.
4. Handle errors using standard exception management patterns.
