Composer Support for ProcessWire, Part 2

Tue, 19 Nov 2013 00:00:00 +0000

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.

<?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

Composer Support for ProcessWire Modules

Sat, 16 Nov 2013 00:00:00 +0000

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

{
    "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 .

Assets for ProcessWire

Fri, 08 Nov 2013 00:00:00 +0000

Processwire is a content management framework.

I was looking to change the directory structure of the Processwire.

|-- index.php
|-- installer.php
|-- README.md
|-- site
`-- wire

I am not the first person to talk on the subject. There are other threads like Installation paths and moving folders, Common practices

Anyway I thought of trying the same and for serving the js, css, images I wrote my first processwire module Assets
