Summary
=======

[](#summary)

This package contains a plugin for composer. The plugin detects optimisations for the `composer.json` file of a project. The plugin hooks in on existing composer commands.

Installation
============

[](#installation)

The package can be installed with:

```
composer require youwe/composer-unclog-plugin -dev

```

Configuration
=============

[](#configuration)

The plugin can be configured to allow more repository types. This is possible by adding a `add-allowed-repositories` array node to the `config` node of the project. The configuration will look like:

```
...
    "config": {
        "add-allowed-repositories": [
            "git"
        ],
        "sort-packages": true
    },
...

```

The repository types are then added to the array of allowed repository types in the plugin.

Usage
=====

[](#usage)

By running one of the following commands, the plugin will perform additional checks for the `composer.json` file.

```
composer validate
composer install
composer update

```

Current checks
==============

[](#current-checks)

- Check if all repositories are of type `composer`.
- Check if all packages have version numbers instead of `dev-` packages.

Future ideas
============

[](#future-ideas)

- Add commands to suggestions to fix the problem (`composer optimize --repositories`).
- Detect if the package is available on a repository and do a suggestion.
- Detect which packages are being used from a non composer repository and check if it can be installed through another configured repository.
