ComposerInstaller
=================

[](#composerinstaller)

A composer plugin to install CORE-POS plugins in correct directories.

Usage
=====

[](#usage)

To create a Lane plugin, use `corepos-lane-plugin` for the `type` in your `composer.json` file. To create an Office plugin use `corepos-office-plugin` for the `type` in your `composer.json` file.

Name Mangling
=============

[](#name-mangling)

The installer rewrites package names to translate from composer naming conventions to CORE's. The author/vendor directory layer is omitted and hyphenated names are converted to camelCase.

Ex: `gohanman/my-core-plugin` will install into a directory named `MyCorePlugin`.

There are two special cases: if a package's name starts with `lane-plugin` or `office-plugin` those words are omitted. So `gohanman/lane-plugin-foo-bar` will install into a directory named `FooBar`.
