FAQ

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.

Please rate this library. Is it a good library?

Informations about the package composer-subtree-plugin

⚠️ 🤖 💩 Made with lots of AI help, so use at your own risk

composer-subtree-plugin

A Composer plugin that adds practical Git subtree commands to your PHP project.

Implemented today:

composer subtree:add
composer subtree:pull
composer subtree:push

What this project is

composer-subtree-plugin helps you manage subtree-based package workflows from Composer commands. It stores subtree metadata on type=path repository entries in composer.json.repositories[].composer-subtree-plugin and uses those definitions for pull/push operations.

Why use this

This plugin is useful when your team has internal libraries that were previously pulled in through Composer vcs repositories, and that setup is causing friction in CI and deployment.

Common pain points with vcs internal dependencies:

CI and deploy jobs depend on external repository availability and auth at install time.
Build environments need extra SSH/token setup just to resolve private package sources.
Reproducibility can become harder when dependency resolution and Git access are tightly coupled.

How this plugin helps:

You vendor internal libraries as Git subtrees directly in your main repository.
Composer installs from local code paths already present in the checkout.
CI and deploy pipelines become simpler because subtree sync is an explicit step (subtree:pull / subtree:push) instead of an implicit runtime dependency fetch.

Requirements

PHP ^8.2
Composer plugin API ^2.2
git with git subtree available

Installation

Install in the consumer project:

If your Composer setup requires explicit plugin approval, add:

Configuration format

Subtrees are configured on type=path repository entries:

Fields:

url (string): local subtree directory (path repository URL)
remote (string): upstream repository URL
branch (string): upstream branch
squash (bool, optional): whether pull/add uses --squash (defaults to false)

Day-to-day usage

1) Add a new subtree

Example:

What it does:

Runs git subtree add --prefix=... <remote> <branch> [--squash]
Ensures composer.json.repositories contains a path repository entry for the subtree prefix
Writes/updates subtree metadata at repositories[].composer-subtree-plugin

Notes:

If prefix is omitted, default is packages/<repo-name>.
Target selection is path-based (for example packages/pcre) or all.
If the git command fails, config is not persisted.

2) Pull subtree updates

target can be a subtree path target (for example packages/pcre) or all.
If omitted, it behaves like all.

Examples:

What it does per subtree:

git fetch <remote> <branch>
git subtree pull --prefix=<prefix> <remote> <branch> [--squash]

3) Push subtree updates

target can be a subtree path target or all.
If omitted, it behaves like all.

Examples:

What it does per subtree:

git subtree push --prefix=<prefix> <remote> <branch>

Current scope (implemented)

This plugin currently provides:

Add subtree + persist subtree config
Pull one/all configured subtrees
Push one/all configured subtrees

No other subtree commands or update hooks are documented here because they are not implemented yet.
