FAQ
Example:
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 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.
Informations about the package dependency-collector
Dependency Collector
Dependency Collector is a Flarum extension for building a curated, community-powered directory of products, libraries, tools, links, projects, or any other resources your forum wants to collect.
It was originally designed for collecting technical dependencies, but the extension is intentionally generic: users submit entries, moderators review them, categories keep the directory organized, and the forum frontend presents approved entries in a searchable card grid.

Demo: https://wyz.xyz/dependencies
Requirements
- Flarum 2.x
- PHP 8.3 or higher
- Composer
Features
- Community submissions: Signed-in users with permission can submit new directory items from the forum frontend.
- Moderation workflow: Submitted items can be reviewed, edited, approved, rejected, or deleted by users with moderation permission.
- Custom categories: The extension includes its own category system, separate from Flarum Tags. Each category can have a name, slug, description, color, and Font Awesome icon.
- Category management UI: Administrators can create and edit categories in the extension settings page. Icon codes can be typed manually or selected from the built-in icon picker.
- Search: The directory can be searched by title and description, with results updating directly in the frontend list.
- Filtering: Users can filter approved items by category.
- Favorites: Logged-in users can favorite and unfavorite items, and quickly switch to their saved list.
- Responsive card layout: Approved items are shown as cards with title, description, categories, author, and compact action buttons.
- Bilingual language files: English and Simplified Chinese translations are included.
- Flarum 2 API resources: The extension uses Flarum 2 resource-based API integration instead of the older Flarum 1 serializer/controller pattern.
- Permission controls: Admins can configure who may submit, moderate, delete, and manage categories.
Common Use Cases
- A community product directory
- A library, package, or dependency collection

- A reading list or tool list
