FAQ

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.
Please rate this library. Is it a good library?

Informations about the package heroku-buildpack-php

Heroku buildpack: PHP CI

php

This is the official Heroku buildpack for PHP applications.

It uses Composer for dependency management, supports all recent versions of PHP as runtimes, and offers a choice of Apache2 or Nginx web servers.

Usage

You'll need to use at least an empty composer.json in your application.

$ echo '{}' > composer.json
$ git add composer.json
$ git commit -m "add composer.json for PHP app detection"

If you also have files from other frameworks or languages that could trigger another buildpack to detect your application as one of its own, e.g. a package.json which might cause your code to be detected as a Node.js application even if it is a PHP application, then you need to manually set your application to use this buildpack:

$ heroku buildpacks:set heroku/php

This will use the officially published version. To use the default branch from GitHub instead:

$ heroku buildpacks:set https://github.com/heroku/heroku-buildpack-php

Please refer to Dev Center for further usage instructions.

Custom Platform Repositories

The buildpack uses Composer repositories to resolve platform (php, ext-something, ...) dependencies.

To use a custom Composer repository with additional or different platform packages, add the URL to its packages.json to the HEROKU_PHP_PLATFORM_REPOSITORIES config var:

$ heroku config:set HEROKU_PHP_PLATFORM_REPOSITORIES="https://<your-bucket-name>.s3.<your-bucket-region>.amazonaws.com/heroku-20/packages.json"

To allow the use of multiple custom repositories, the config var may hold a list of multiple repository URLs, separated by a space character, in ascending order of precedence (meaning the last repository listed is handled first by Composer for package lookups).

Please note that Heroku cannot provide support for issues related to custom platform repositories and packages.

Disabling the Default Repository

If the first entry in the list is "-" instead of a URL, the default platform repository is disabled entirely. This can be useful when testing development repositories, or to forcefully prevent the use of any packages from the default platform repository.

Repository Priorities

It is possible to control Composer Repository Priorities for custom platform repositories: whether Composer should

These repository options (canonical, exclude and only) are controlled using the following query strings in the repository URL:

For example, the following config var will allow only packages ext-igbinary and ext-redis from customrepo.com; all other packages are looked up in the default repository:

$ heroku config:set HEROKU_PHP_PLATFORM_REPOSITORIES="https://customrepo.com/packages.json?composer-repository-only=ext-igbinary,ext-redis"
