Informations about the package composer-craft-installer

Composer Craft Installer

Composer installer that helps install Craft. (Craft repository not included, please provide your own).

Introduction

As a company we create a lot of websites with Craft. Instead of having to manually download and install Craft each time, we have a private repository (with some extra magic added). This repository contains a plugin for Composer that installs that repository for any project that might need it.

This also makes it easier to install a copy of Craft on build/ci engines (like Jenkins or Travis-CI) to have an environment to run test against for custom plugins.

Usage

For this plugin to work, three things are needed:

Craft repository

Craft is not open-sourced and requires a license to use in a production. Please respect the Craft license an acquire a legitimate copy to work with. You can keep that code in a private repository for development purposes, as long as you don't share the code-base publicly.

Craft Repository Composer entry

Once a Craft repository has been made available, make sure it has a valid composer.json file. For this installer to be used, the type entry has to be set to craft-library and the nerds-and-company/composer-craft-installer package needs to be require'd.

A minimal case would be:

{
    "name": "acme-corp/craft",
    "description": "Acme Corp. Craft Repository",
    "license": "proprietary",
    "type": "craft-library",
    "require": {
        "nerds-and-company/composer-craft-installer": "~0.1"
    }
}

Project Composer entry

All that is left now, is to require the Craft repository from a specific project's composer.json:

{
    "name": "acme-corp/my-craft-based-project",
    "description": "Another Acme Corp. Production",
    "license": "proprietary",
    "require": {
        "acme-corp/craft": "~2.5"
    }
}
