FAQ
Example:
In general, it is recommended to use always a project to download your libraries. In an application normally there is more than one library needed.
- Some hosting areas are not accessible by a terminal or SSH. Then it is not possible to use Composer.
- To use Composer is sometimes complicated. Especially for beginners.
- Composer needs much resources. Sometimes they are not available on a simple webspace.
- If you are using private repositories you don't need to share your credentials. You can set up everything on our site and then you provide a simple download link to your team member.
- Simplify your Composer build process. Use our own command line tool to download the vendor folder as binary. This makes your build process faster and you don't need to expose your credentials for private repositories.
Informations about the package pimcore-composer-installer
Pimcore Composer Installer
Installs a given version of Pimcore to your configured document-root-path via Composer. The main
goal of this package is to make it easier to ramp developers up onto a Pimcore project, and make it
easier to set up Pimcore projects. It achieves this by ensuring that you don't have to commit
Pimcore to your project's repository, and automates the task of downloading, extracting, and placing
the Pimcore files in your project.
Usage:
Two config entries are required in your project's composer.json file:
document-root-path: This is the Pimcore web-root, i.e. where index.php will be, and where files will be served from.pimcore-version: This is the exact Pimcore version that you want to use. This cannot be part of your project's required dependencies because the version downloaded by Composer would clash with the Pimcore autoloader.
You must then also specify the installer as post-install-cmd and post-update-cmd scripts.
For example:
The Installer class has methods for installing individual components, this makes it very easy to
tailor the installation to your project's needs. If you are planning on using these methods, make
sure you first always called the download method, all of the install methods will need it to have
been called first by Composer.
Note: This plugin will overwrite some files without warning. If you have modified default Pimcore code then you will more than likely lose it. We recommend extending the Pimcore code to augment the behaviour (this also makes it easier to upgrade Pimcore in the future!)
