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 composer-patches-plugin

composer-patches-plugin

This plugin allows you to provide patches for any package from any package.

If you don't want a patch package outside the root package, consider providing it as package in the repositories key

See this presentation for the original idea of this plugin: http://de.slideshare.net/christianopitz/distributed-patching-with-composer

Patch properties

Key Description Required
url The url or path to the patch ✓
title Title to display when applying or reverting the patch
args string, which will be added to the patch command
sha1 SHA1 checksum of the patch contents for security check - when given the patches actual checksum and this value are compared and if they don't match an exception will be thrown

You may provide patches per package and optionally by version constraints:

Provide patches by package only

Provide patches by package and versions or version constraints

composer.json:

Note: When multiple version constraints match the version of the target package, all of the matching patches will be applied (canonicalized by theyr checksums, so no duplicates should occure).

Provide patches from URLs or paths

You can put any part of the patches object into another JSON and load it via an URL (or a path):

composer.json:

http://example.com/typo3-patches.json

Provide patches from local stored files

You can use absolute paths or paths relative to the application root.

composer.json:

I have also added a new folder at the same level as the composer.json called "patches" and add a patch file example_local_file.patch like:

Note that the patch will be called with the option -p1 (remove the first slash) and in the directory of the library.

Then run the commands to update the dependency and to install patches:

Requiring the patches:

just require the package with the patches.
