Web Composer Package Management
The sole purpose of this package is to port php composer library management form Command Line Interface (CLI) to an easily accessed web panel, from there developers can require, update or, remove packages normally as they would using composer's CLI application.
Why?
Sometimes web hosting providers don't give access to secured shell so, we get little slowed down when a library is needed to be installed, updated or, removed in a project, so we run composer commands needed on a local copy of that project, then we upload the library's files back to server along with the updated composer's data.
Therefore, I made this small package that gives access to developers where they can manage their composer packages and libraries right from web without the need for shell access.
Features
- Searching for packages installed or all packages from packagist.org.
- Installing new composer packages with the version you specify.
- Updating / downgrading existing composer packages.
- Removing existing composer packages.
- NOTE: don't forget to refactor your source before removing to avoid errors on accessing the removed library.
- Showing list of dependencies of any package (currently broken).
- Web console output showing the progress of all requested operations.
- Better support for Laravel framework version 5.0 and onwards.
- Applying your protective authentication middleware on the panel (currently for Laravel projects only).

Credit
This library implements the original composer application commands into a web interface so, all credit really goes for the creators of composer.
Limitations
- This package calls composer functions in background using cURL requests so, if a web server application e.g. nginx has too short timeout limit this might prevent the functions from being completed.
- Memory limit is set internally to 1 GB, time limit is removed and, user disconnection is disregarded in php but, it's not guaranteed that the library's background functions would continue if web server application e.g. nginx times out.
- The output console featured in this library is not synced by websocket connection due to its unavailability on some servers however, it's synced periodically once an operation is requested, and that sync function might be toggled on and off.
