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.

Installation

You can add this library as a local, per-project dependency to your project using Composer:

composer require phar-io/version

If you only need this library during development, for instance to run your project's test suite, then you should add it as a development-time dependency:

composer require --dev phar-io/version

Version constraints

A Version constraint describes a range of versions or a discrete version number. The format of version numbers follows the schema of semantic versioning: <major>.<minor>.<patch>. A constraint might contain an operator that describes the range.

Beside the typical mathematical operators like <=, >=, there are two special operators:

Caret operator: ^1.0 can be written as >=1.0.0 <2.0.0 and read as »every Version within major version 1«.

Tilde operator: ~1.0.0 can be written as >=1.0.0 <1.1.0 and read as »every version within minor version 1.1. The behavior of tilde operator depends on whether a patch level version is provided or not. If no patch level is provided, tilde operator behaves like the caret operator: ~1.0 is identical to ^1.0.

Usage examples

Parsing version constraints and check discrete versions for compliance:

As of version 2.0.0, pre-release labels are supported and taken into account when comparing versions:
