Some PHP packages are not free to download and because of that hosted in private repositories. In this case some credentials are needed to access such packages. Please use the auth.json textarea to insert credentials, if a package is coming from a private repository. You can look here for more information.

Kirby Composer Installer

CI Status Coverage Status

This is Kirby's custom Composer installer for the Kirby CMS. It is responsible for automatically choosing the correct installation paths if you install the CMS via Composer.

It can also be used to automatically install Kirby plugins to the site/plugins directory.

Installing the CMS

Default configuration

If you require the getkirby/cms package in your own composer.json, there is nothing else you need to do:

Kirby's Composer installer (this repo) will run automatically and will install the CMS to the kirby directory.

Custom installation path

You might want to use a different installation path. The path can be configured like this in your composer.json:

Disable the installer for the CMS

If you prefer to have the CMS installed to the vendor directory, you can disable the custom path entirely:

Please note that you will need to modify your site's index.php to load the vendor/autoload.php file instead of Kirby's bootstrap.php.

Support in published plugins

Plugins need to require this installer as a Composer dependency to make use of the automatic installation to the site/plugins directory.

You can find out more about this in our plugin documentation.

Usage for plugin users
