Installing an Aura Framework Project via Composer

Yesterday Paul M Jones tagged the beta5 for the system repo. So you can download the system from http://auraphp.com/system/downloads/ via composer # Creating aura framework based projects has been made easy with composer. You can run php composer.phar create-project -s dev aura/system your-directory What it does is almost similar to git clone and installing via git as below

In my earlier post I mentioned about adding a composer.json in the root of the github repo. Sometimes you may see a non composer.json repo or some times people reject it, you still can do like the below. 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 <?php { "minimum-stability": "dev", "repositories": [ { "type": "package", "package": { "name": "ryancramerdesign/process-export-profile", "version": "1.0.0", "source": { "url": "https://github.com/ryancramerdesign/ProcessExportProfile", "type": "git", "reference": "master" }, "type": "pw-module", "require": { "hari/pw-module": "~1.0" } } } ], "require": { "ryancramerdesign/process-export-profile": "1.0.0" } } And run

I am a huge fan of composer. PW ( ProcessWire) is missing one of the good parts of composer. So here is a new installer to install the 3rd party modules of PW via composer. If you have created a module for PW, what you need to do is add a composer.json file in your github repo and add it to packagist. An example composer.json is 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 { "name": "vendor/package-name", "type": "pw-module", "description": "Your module what it does", "keywords": [ "keywords", "comma", "seprated"], "homepage": "https://github.com/harikt/Assets", "license": "BSD-2-Clause", "authors": [ { "name": "Assets Contributors", "homepage": "https://github.com/harikt/Assets/contributors" } ], "require": { "php": ">=5.3.0", "hari/pw-module": "~1.0" } } Note the minimum requirement is PHP 5.3 for composer is 5.3 .
