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.

Informations about the package wp-rest-api-psr7

WP REST API PSR-7

WP REST API PSR-7 is a small library which creates a bridge between the PSR-7 standards and interfaces and the WordPress REST API Response and Request classes. You can include it via composer in any theme or plugin which needs this.

More Detail

Development for the WordPress REST API started before the PSR-7 was finalized. This standard made a great way for different libraries to be able to interact using a common interface. Unfortunately, since WordPress missed it, the standard WP_REST_Request and WP_REST_Response classes are not PSR-7 compliant.

This means that any library which extends HTTP Messages using the PSR-7 standard are not compatible with WordPress by default. Bummer! Our team ran into this limitation when attempting to use the OAuth2 Server library.

When would I need this?

This is the sort of thing where you don't need it until you do and when you do you'll know it's missing. 🙂

Things to keep in mind

When generating a WP_REST_PSR7_Request from a request, the body is passed directly to the PSR-7 body stream. This means that any validation and sanitization that WP_REST_Server provides may not be applied. Be aware of this and make sure that sanitization and validation are applied if the library does not.
