Composer helps you declare, manage and install dependencies of PHP projects, ensuring you have the right stack everywhere.
See https://getcomposer.org/ for more information and documentation.
-
Download the
composer.phar
executable or use the installer.$ curl -sS https://getcomposer.org/installer | php
-
Create a composer.json defining your dependencies. Note that this example is a short version for applications that are not meant to be published as packages themselves. To create libraries/packages please read the documentation.
{ "require": { "monolog/monolog": ">=1.0.0" } }
-
Run Composer:
php composer.phar install
-
Browse for more packages on Packagist.
To run tests, or develop Composer itself, you must use the sources and not the phar file as described above.
- Run
git clone https://github.com/composer/composer.git
- Download the
composer.phar
executable - Run Composer to get the dependencies:
cd composer && php ../composer.phar install
You can now run Composer by executing the bin/composer
script: php /path/to/composer/bin/composer
Follow instructions in the documentation
Running php composer.phar self-update
or equivalent will update a phar
install with the latest version.
All code contributions - including those of people having commit access - must go through a pull request and approved by a core developer before being merged. This is to ensure proper review of all the code.
Fork the project, create a feature branch, and send us a pull request.
To ensure a consistent code base, you should make sure the code follows the Coding Standards which we borrowed from Symfony.
