Remote Bin Scripts
==================

[](#remote-bin-scripts)

Download things into the bin-dir.
---------------------------------

[](#download-things-into-the-bin-dir)

This plugin allows you to specify URLs to download on `composer install` as scripts.

For example, you can download a binary or phar file into your `vendor/bin` directory.

### Advantages:

[](#advantages)

1. Add PHP tools as phar files to alleviate the need to align composer requirements.
2. Add scripts and tools written in other languages.
3. Integrates with `composer install`.

Usage
-----

[](#usage)

1. Install the plugin.

    ```
    $ composer require operations/remote-bin-scripts

    ```
2. Add to `composer.json`:

    ```
    {
      "extra": {
        "remote-scripts": {
          "vendor/bin/hello-world": "https://raw.githubusercontent.com/operations-platform/composer-remote-bin-scripts/2.x/hello-world.sh"
        }
      }
    }
    ```
3. Run composer install:

    ```
    $ composer install

    ```
4. Run your script from the composer bin path:

    ```
    ./vendor/bin/hello-world
    ```

    Or, if you set PATH, just use the command.

    ```
    PATH=$PATH:./vendor/bin
    hello-world
    ```
