Symlink Handler
===============

[](#symlink-handler)

[![Build Status](https://camo.githubusercontent.com/ee8ce72df803cb4e3cf927730d58d8b8f4f0832d190d11b2b822dc569b6db36e/68747470733a2f2f7472617669732d63692e6f72672f6b706f7272617330372f636f6d706f7365722d73796d6c696e6b732e7376673f6272616e63683d6d6173746572)](https://travis-ci.org/kporras07/composer-symlinks)

Composer script handling creation of symlinks inside your composer project.

*Note:* Symlinks will become files copy when composer is run with `--no-dev`

Installation
============

[](#installation)

Installation can be done as usually using composer. `composer require kporras07/composer-symlinks`

Usage
=====

[](#usage)

Add the following in your root `composer.json` file:

```
"require": {
    "kporras07/composer-symlinks": "dev-master"
},
"scripts": {
    "post-install-cmd": [
        "Kporras07\\ComposerSymlinks\\ScriptHandler::createSymlinks"
    ],
    "post-update-cmd": [
        "Kporras07\\ComposerSymlinks\\ScriptHandler::createSymlinks"
    ]
},
"extra": {
    "symlinks": {
        "components": "web/components"
    }
}
```

After running either `composer install` or `composer update`, components folder will be accessible from your web folder `web/components/`.

But of course, you have to be careful when making symlinks to a folder which is publicly accessible.
