Magento Core Installer for Composer
===================================

[](#magento-core-installer-for-composer)

Want to kick-off a new Magento project? What about dropping all the Magento core components from your project's repository?

Usage
-----

[](#usage)

First of all, you should use (magento-composer-installer)\[\] to uncouple your extensions.

Now just add Magento itself as a new dependency using this Magento Core Installer. Therefor you need to generate a modman file (or another kind of mapping) for your Magento version and to provide a `composer.json` depending on Magento Core Installer.

Example:

```
{
  "name": "magento/core",
  "type": "magento-core",
  "description": "Magento Core",
  "require": {
    "quafzi/magento-core-installer": "dev-master"
  }
}

```

How to generate a modman file for a whole Magento version?
----------------------------------------------------------

[](#how-to-generate-a-modman-file-for-a-whole-magento-version)

Run `mage_modman_generator.sh` (which is part of this repository) in your Magento root folder.
