SymfonyCasts stands united with the people of Ukraine
Welcome to the wonderful world of Composer - the Dependency Manager for PHP!
In this Screencast, you'll learn how to install and configure Composer and use it to integrate third-party libraries into any PHP project (even something like Wordpress!). This includes:
composer.lock fileupdate versus install commandrequire commandLet's go!
Your Guides
I'll be linking folks to this regularly when they have questions on Composer -- really nice work!
Great Job, I´m planning following all your Symfony2 tutorials!
Although I have a question:
WHere does lives the "list_files.module" file... ? I´ve searched through all the drupal directories and files and Couldn´t find it :)
Hey Edison!
Oh man, *great* question! I realize that I didn't put very good comments on that file in the script :). I've just made some changes to show you were this is (https://github.com/knpunive... - you should already see these deployed! Basically, I'm putting things into a custom module called `list_files` that I already created and enabled before the tutorial.
I hope that helps! And good luck with the tutorials - ping me if you need anything!
Cheers!
Confused noob here. I installed composer on my local machine but I cannot figure out how to install it on my web server. I do not have curl. Can anyone help? I'm trying to use a MailChimp plugin that requires composer
Hey Rachel!
No worries :) - you have 2 options:
1) The second code block on the download page - https://getcomposer.org/dow... - shows an option that *doesn't* use curl. This may work for you!
2) Since composer is just a single file (composer.phar), you can just upload this to your web server. You could even commit it to your version control repository - It's generally not considered a best practice, but it's no big deal.
Good luck!
Great video. I was always confused by the behavior of composer install and composer update. Thanks!
