Locus
=====

[](#locus)

Installs a per-project `php` binary to the `./vendor/bin/` based on `composer.json` requirements.

Setup and Installation
----------------------

[](#setup-and-installation)

Make sure you have a PHP version constraint specified in your `composer.json`:

```
"require": {
  "php": "^8.3"
},
```

Then run the following command to add locus:

```
composer require pronskiy/locus --dev
```

You'll be asked to allow the composer plugin, reply `y`. Or if you are adding the dependency manually, add the following to your `composer.json`:

```
"config": {
  "allow-plugins": {
    "pronskiy/locus": true
  }
}
```

Usage
-----

[](#usage)

Now you always have your per-project `php` binary to execute PHP scripts directly from the command line.

```
./vendor/bin/php --version
```
