Composer Exclusive Install
==========================

[](#composer-exclusive-install)

A Composer plugin that prevents more than one `install` or `update` operation at a time. The lock isn't global, but project-based and located in the `vendor` folder. After the command is completed, the lock is released even if it wasn't completed normally.

> **Warning**: the plugin will not work in different docker containers with shared `vendor` location! If you have any ideas on how to implement this, please describe your idea in the [issue](https://github.com/erickskrauch/composer-exclusive-install/issues/new).
