-Installation of Wikibase Database
-====================================
-
-Wikibase Database has the following dependencies:
-
-* OPTIONAL: [MediaWiki](https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/) 1.21 or later
-
-And nothing else.
-
-It also requires PHP 5.3 or above to run.
-
-Installation with Composer
---------------------------
-
-The standard and recommended way to install Wikibase Database is with [Composer](http://getcomposer.org).
-If you do not have Composer yet, you first need to install it, or get the composer.phar file.
-
-Depending on your situation, pick one of the following 3 approaches:
-
-1. If you already have a copy of the Wikibase Database code, change into its root
-directory and type "composer install". This will install all dependencies of Wikibase Database.
-
-2. If you want to get Wikibase Database and all of its dependencies, use
-"composer create-package wikibase/database".
-
-3. If you have a component (ie a MediaWiki extension) into which you want to install
-Wikibase Database, then add the "wikibase/database" package in the "require" section
-of the composer.json of your component and run "composer install".
-
-For more information on using Composer, see [using composer](http://getcomposer.org/doc/01-basic-usage.md).
-
-The entry point of Wikibase Database is WikibaseDatabase.php. Including this file
-takes care of autoloading and defining the version constant of this component.
-
-Installation without composer
------------------------------
-
-If you install without composer, simply include the entry point file. You are then
-responsible for loading all dependencies of this component before including the
-entry point, and can do this in whatever way you see fit.
-
-Usage as MediaWiki extension
------------------------------
-
-Though Wikibase Database is a PHP library that is not dependent on MediaWiki,
-its entry point contains some code that will register it with MediaWiki as extension
-in case MediaWiki is loaded. This allows one to see the version of Wikibase Database
-when it is used by an actual MediaWiki extension.
-
-You can install either with Composer or without.
-Installation is not affected by MediaWiki usage.
