FAQ
Example:
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 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 brevity
brevity-php
A small utility to count characters, autolink, and shorten posts to an acceptable tweet-length summary.
This is a port of the Python module of the same name. Please refer to https://github.com/kylewm/brevity for documentation.
Note that this module depends on the mb_ string methods to be
available. I get the best results by setting
somewhere in my project.
Installation

Usage
tweetLength($text)
Find out how many characters a message will use on Twitter with
tweetLength():
This text is 119 characters but, due to t.co wrapping, will only use 99 characters.
autolink($text)
Convert URLs in plaintext to HTML links.
Note that brevity handles parentheses and other punctuation as you'd expect.
shorten($text)
The shorten($text) function takes a message of any length and
shortens it to a Tweet-length of 280 characters, adding an ellipsis at
the end of it is truncated. It will not truncate a word or URL in the
middle. Shorten takes a few optional parameters that change the way
the tweet is formed. Any of these parameters can be false.
$permalink- included after the ellipsis if and only if the text is shortened. Must be a URL or false.$shortpermalink- included in parentheses at the end of tweets that are not shortened. Must be a URL or false.$shortpermacitation- included in parentheses at the end of tweets that are not shortened. Must not be a URL, e.g.ttk.me t4fT2$formatAsTitle- take the text as a title of a longer article. Always formats as "Title: $permalink" or "Title… $permalink" if shortened.
