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.

Informations about the package multiuser-editing-alert

Multi-User Editing Alert

Alerts users in the SilverStripe CMS when multiple people are editing the same page.

Maintainer Contact

Julian Seidenberg <julian (at) silverstripe (dot) com>

Requirements

SilverStripe 4.0 or newer

Installation

Run: composer require silverstripe/multiuser-editing-alert

The module is automatically enabled after flush=all.

Usage

Install the module and blue dots appear next to pages in the site tree to indicate where CMS authors are editing. If multiple authors edit the same page a red dot and large warning messages appears on the page.

The list of people editing the page is stored in the SS_Cache file (DynamoDB in SilverStripe Platform or Tmp), and running a flush clears the list of editors.

The module polls the server every 3 seconds when there are multiple users editing, but saves server cycles by polling about every 24 seconds when there is just a single content author editing. If a user logs out or closes their tab, they automatically get timed out and removed from the list of current editors.

You can just the timing of the pollings using the multiuser.yml config file. For example, if there are a huge amount of content authors editing at any one time, you might want to set update less frequently, as that might overload the server.

Extra bonus: the red and blue dots are SVG files, and therefore tiny to download.
