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.

Getting a connection with Informix

If you don't have experience with DBAL please read first its documentation Doctrine\DBAL documentation

To create a connection you can use the modified version of the DriverManager of Doctrine\DBAL with comes with the Informix Platform or you can use the original DriverManager class of Doctrine\DBAL, in this last case you will need to specify the driver class to use.

Creating a connection with the modified version of the DriverManager

Ifx4dd comes with a modified version of the DriverManager class that adds pdo_informix as one of the possible drivers to use.

In this case, you need tell to composer that load the classes from the ifx4dd directory tree in first place (if you have installed ifx4dd from the composer.json what comes with ifx4dd it is not needed since the ifx4dd directory is added in first place to the autoloader).

Creating a connection with the original DriverManager of DBAL

If you want to use the 'Doctrine\DBAL\DriverManager' class what comes with DBAL you need to specify the driver class to use in the connection params as in the next example:

Creating a connection with a URL

Since DBAL 2.5 it is possible to use a URL to create the connection (note that in this case you must use the ifx4dd DriverManager version).

Please, refer to the DBAL documentation for more information: https://github.com/doctrine/dbal/blob/2.5/docs/en/reference/configuration.rst
