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 datescan

Datescan

Recognize and parse multiple date/time formats.

Build Status MIT License Release GitHub tag Download Count GitHub contributors GitHub issues

We needed a simple tool to help parse multiple date formats that came in over a myriad of sources into our central lead processing platform. Datescan was a way for us to recognize and parse the multitude of differing formats with a simple, consistent, and reliable tool.

We're excited to bring Datescan to the public, and hope that more developers come on board and contribute to the project.

Example Usage(s)

Basic Usage
Custom Pattern Format

When dealing with multiple date time formats, you may come across non-standard formats. These formats may not be included in Datescan's default pattern list. Using the addFormatPattern method allows you to include custom regex patterns and their associated DateTime format strings. Below is an example of using the method to include your own pattern and format.

Custom Closest Date

Datescan uses a simple date difference algorithm to return a single date/time when there are multiple pattern matches. It uses the current DateTime (now) for comparison. So, if there are multiple regex pattern matches, the closest date to today will be selected and returned. You can change this 'closestDate' for comparisons, giving you more flexibility when dealing with complex patterns that could possibly match multiple formats.

In the above section, we're dealing with a date string that could match multiple patterns. In this instance, we know that the date is y/m/d not d/m/y. Setting a closestDate in the past (2009) allows Datescan to match the correct pattern/format. December 12th, 2010.
