After the download, you have to make one include require_once('vendor/autoload.php');. After that you have to import the classes with use statements.

Example:
If you use only one package a project is not needed. But if you use more then one package, without a project it is not possible to import the classes with use statements.

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 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.

  • 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 distributed-random

DistributedRandom

Normally distributed random values for PHP

DistributedRandom allows you generate random values within a range enforcing normal distribution rahter than the uniform distribution rand() et al will give you.

Disclaimer. This may not be real math(s). I use it when generating random objects for testing. For example if I want to generate 2000 users in one of 4 user permission groups, if I randomise the user permission_group_id I can expected roughly 500 users in each. However I usually want the majority of generated users to be in the less permissive groups and only a few "admins" created. This library lets you do that by randomisng with a large skew towards the lower end.

You can see the sort of distributions in the demo script
