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 wp-client

kistn/wp-client

WordPress plugin client for the Kistn API. Collects installed plugins, themes, and WordPress core, then pushes inventory for centralized vulnerability monitoring.

Requirements

Installation

Automatic installation via WordPress plugins

Login to your WordPress backend, navigate to Plugins → Add New and search for "kistn". When the plugin "Kistn API Client" appears, click install. After installation click activate to activate the plugin.

Via Composer

Then activate the plugin as usual via Plugins in your WordPress admin.

Configuration

Settings page: Settings → Kistn

Or constants in wp-config.php:

Constants take precedence over settings-page values.

Push Flow

Each run (scheduled or CLI):

  1. Preflight — POST /preflight/wp — server returns stale slugs, cached advisory payloads, and known-private slugs.
  2. Hash check — GET /hashes for all ecosystems; compare each locally; skip push if all unchanged.
  3. WPScan lookup — query WPScan only for stale, non-private slugs. Slugs returning 404 are reported as private_packages.
  4. Push — POST /inventory bundled: {"ecosystems": {"wp-plugin": {...}, "wp-theme": {...}, "wp-core": {...}}} — only ecosystems that changed.

CLI

What gets collected

Collector Source
Kistn_Plugin_Collector Active and inactive plugins
Kistn_Theme_Collector Active theme + parent (child themes flagged is_child=true)
Kistn_Core_Collector WordPress core version

Packages without a source_url (no WordPress.org listing) are inferred as private without querying WPScan.
