Problem is that when there is a composer.json like the one below, then the `../../foo/bar` directory has to be exists *before* the `composer update` or `composer install` commands are invoked. This plugin tries to download them in an early phase by subscribing to the "pre command" events. ``` { "repositories": { "foo/bar": { "type": "path", "url": "../../foo/bar-1.x" } }, "require": { "foo/bar": "*" } } ``` Usage - global (recommended) ---------------------------- [](#usage---global-recommended) 1. `composer global require sweetchuck/composer-repo-path` 2. `cd somewhere/my/project-01` Edit your `composer.json` according to the following example: ``` { "name": "my/project-01", "minimum-stability": "dev", "prefer-stable": true, "config": { "preferred-install": "dist" }, "repositories": { "foo/bar": { "type": "path", "url": "../../foo/bar-1.x", "options": { "repo-path": { "url": "http://example.com/foo/bar.git", "branch": "1.x" } } } }, "require": { "foo/bar": "*" } } ``` 3. `composer update` 4. `ls -la '../../foo/bar-1.x'`> Should be a regular directory. 5. `ls -la 'vendor/foo'`> "bar" should be a symlink. Usage - project --------------- [](#usage---project) Without a globally pre-installed `sweetchuck/composer-repo-path` plugin things are a little more complicated. When `composer update` command runs first time in a clean project, then the `sweetchuck/composer-repo-path` plugin is not available, and if the `../../foo/bar-1.x` directory is not exists, then the Composer will throw an error. The [composer-suite](https://github.com/Sweetchuck/composer-suite) plugin helps to solve this problem. 1. `cd somewhere/my/project-01` 2. composer.json ``` { "name": "my/project-01", "minimum-stability": "dev", "prefer-stable": true, "config": { "preferred-install": "dist" }, "repositories": {}, "require": { "foo/bar": "^1.0" }, "require-dev": { "sweetchuck/composer-repo-path": "1.x-dev", "sweetchuck/composer-suite": "1.x-dev" }, "extra": { "composer-suite": { "local": { "description": "Modifications for local development", "actions": [ { "type": "prepend", "config": { "parents": ["repositories"], "items": { "foo/bar": { "type": "path", "url": "", "options": { "repo-path": { "url": "https://example.com/foo/bar.git", "remote": "upstream", "branch": "1.x" } } } } } }, { "type": "replaceRecursive", "config": { "parents": ["require"], "items": { "foo/bar": "*" } } } ] } } } } ``` 3. `composer update` 4. `composer suite:generate` 5. optional: `COMPOSER='composer.local.json' composer repo-path:download` 6. `COMPOSER='composer.local.json' composer update` @TODO ----- [](#todo) ### Command - composer repo-path:list [](#command---composer-repo-pathlist) List all the packages that are installed by symlinks. Example: `composer repo-path:list Example output: space separated package names. > foo/bar baz/doo tab/fal \--format='json|yaml|csv' option would be handy. Together with [Sweetchuck/composer-suite](https://github.com/Sweetchuck/composer-suite) ``` { "scripts": { "suite:install:local": [ "rm composer.local.json composer.local.lock", "composer suite:generate", "cp composer.lock composer.local.lock", "COMPOSER='composer.local.lock' composer update $(composer repo-path:list)" ], "suite:reset": [ "rm $(COMPOSER='composer.local.lock' composer repo-path:list --format=json | jq 'find install dirs of the symlinked packages')", "composer install" ] } } ``` ### Health Score 38 — LowBetter than 85% of packages Maintenance81 Actively maintained with recent releases Popularity16 Limited adoption so far Community7 Small or concentrated contributor base Maturity38 Early-stage or recently created project Bus Factor1 Top contributor holds 100% of commits — single point of failure How is this calculated?**Maintenance (25%)** — Last commit recency, latest release date, and issue-to-star ratio.
