This repository contains the Composer plugin class `Zend\ComponentInstaller\ComponentInstaller`, which provides Composer event hooks for the events:

- post-package-install
- post-package-uninstall

Via Composer global install
---------------------------

[](#via-composer-global-install)

To install the utility for use with all projects you use:

```
$ composer global require zendframework/zend-component-installer
```

Per project installation
------------------------

[](#per-project-installation)

To install the utility for use with a specific project already managed by composer:

```
$ composer require zendframework/zend-component-installer
```

Writing packages that utilize the installer
-------------------------------------------

[](#writing-packages-that-utilize-the-installer)

Packages can opt-in to the workflow from zend-component-installer by defining one or more of the following keys under the `extra.zf` configuration in their `composer.json` file:

```
"extra": {
  "zf": {
    "component": "Component\\Namespace",
    "config-provider": "Classname\\For\\ConfigProvider",
    "module": "Module\\Namespace"
  }
}
```

- A **component** is for use specifically with zend-mvc + zend-modulemanager; a `Module` class **must** be present in the namespace associated with it. The setting indicates a low-level component that should be injected to the top of the modules list of one of:

    - `config/application.config.php`
    - `config/modules.config.php`
    - `config/development.config.php`
- A **module** is for use specifically with zend-mvc + zend-modulemanager; a `Module` class **must** be present in the namespace associated with it. The setting indicates a userland or third-party module that should be injected to the bottom of the modules list of one of:

    - `config/application.config.php`
    - `config/modules.config.php`
    - `config/development.config.php`
- A **config-provider** is for use with applications that utilize [expressive-config-manager](https://github.com/mtymek/expressive-config-manager)or [zend-config-aggregator](https://github.com/zendframework/zend-config-aggregator)(which may or may not be Expressive applications). The class listed must be an invokable that returns an array of configuration, and will be injected at the top of:

    - `config/config.php`

Whitelisting packages to install automatically
----------------------------------------------

[](#whitelisting-packages-to-install-automatically)

At the project level, you can mark packages that expose configuration providers and modules that you want to automatically inject via the `component-whitelist`key:

```
"extra": {
  "zf": {
    "component-whitelist": [
      "zendframework/zend-expressive",
      "zendframework/zend-expressive-helpers"
    ]
  }
}
```

This configuration must be made at the root package level (the package *consuming* configuration providing packages).
