For github.com you could also use an `auth.json` file with an [oauth access token](https://help.github.com/articles/creating-an-access-token-for-command-line-use/) placed on the the same level as your `composer.json` file: ``` { "github-oauth": { "github.com": "YOUR_GITHUB_ACCESS_TOKEN" } } ``` License ------- [](#license) MIT License.
