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.

Assert
Background
A wrapper around webmozart/assert to make it useful beyond checking method
arguments. One of the major reasons to come up with this fork was our
requirement to be able to throw custom exceptions, instead of everything
being thrown as a generic InvalidArgumentException.
Using a __callStatic wrapper we are able to wrap the webmozart-methods
allowing for an extra exception parameter, and catch the
InvalidArgumentException by the original library, then throw the desired
exception, or fall back to our custom AssertionFailedException.
In practise, this means that every assertion provided by the original library
can be used an provided with an additional parameter. If you provide it, and it
translates into a Throwable class, that is what will be thrown as soon as the
assertion fails. If you don't pass the the extra parameter, we will throw the
more generic AssertionFailedException (which in our opinion is still better
than the even more generic InvalidArgumentException).
We also felt that InvalidArgumentException is incorrect to use in this case.
This exception was intended by PHP to be thrown when a function parameter is of
the wrong type. Our custom AssertionFailedException therefore inherits from
UnexpectedValueException which is intended to verify values against valid
value sets, possibly during the internal computations of a function. We deem
this much more appropriate for use in assertions.
Custom Assertions
Another reason to fork is the ability to add a few custom assertions that may only make sense for XML / SAML2 related things.
Currently this library provides the following additional assertions:
