Installing Dependencies
$ composer install
Loading composer repositories with package information
Installing dependencies (including require-dev)
- Installing psr/log (1.0.0)
Loading from cache
- Installing monolog/monolog (1.5.0)
Loading from cache
monolog/monolog suggests installing mlehner/gelf-php (Allow sending log messages to a GrayLog2 server)

monolog/monolog suggests installing ext-amqp (Allow sending log messages to an AMQP server (1.0+ required))
Writing lock file
Generating autoload files
composer install

composer.lock
‣ install writes a dependency lock ﬁle

composer.lock
‣ List of exact versions installed

composer.lock
‣ Commit both composer.lock and composer.json

composer.lock
‣ composer install now checks the lock ﬁle, not
composer.json

composer.lock
‣ composer install now checks the lock ﬁle, not

‣ Update dependencies with composer update

Updating Dependencies
{
"require": {
"monolog/monolog": "1.6.*@dev"
}
}

}
‣Updates monolog library version

{

‣Updates monolog library version
‣Version >= 1.6.0 and < 1.7 (dev)

}
}

Adding New Dependencies
Or use the command line

Writing lock file
composer require

Autoloading
‣ Composer generates vendor/autoload.php

Autoloading
‣ Add require ‘vendor/autoload.php’;

Autoloading
‣ Add require ‘vendor/autoload.php’;
‣ Immediately begin using your dependencies

Autoloading
{
"require": {
},
"autoload": {
"psr-0": {
"Beeblebrox": "src/"
}
}
}
Don’t forget to add your own code!

Autoloading
$loader = require 'vendor/autoload.php';
$loader->add('AcmeTest', __DIR__);
Pro Tip
Grab an autoloader instance and
add more namespaces.

scripts
execution process
‣ Only scripts deﬁned in the root composer.json are

‣ If a script is deﬁned in a dependency, you can use it in
your composer.json

scripts
‣ Composer ﬁres “named events” during execution

scripts
‣ Named events include:

scripts
‣ pre- and post-install-cmd

scripts
‣ pre- and post-update-cmd

scripts
‣ post-root-package-install

‣ Many more . . .

Running scripts
Execute Composer (script will execute if the named

You’ve built your library.
Now what?

Push it to aVCS
‣ git, svn, or hg all work equally well

Push it to aVCS
‣ For the sake of simplicity I’ll assume git/github

Push it to aVCS
‣ Package versions:

Push it to aVCS
‣ Tags are package versions (1.0.0, v2.5.4, etc)

Push it to aVCS
‣ Branches are dev versions (dev-{branchname},
{branchname}-dev)

Push it to aVCS
‣ Branches are dev versions (dev-{branchname},
{branchname}-dev)
‣ For this reason, I strongly recommend using semantic
versioning: http://semver.org

Packagist
‣ The main package repository for Composer

Packagist
‣ (Aside: Search Packagist before “rolling your own”)

Packagist
‣ Packages published there need no special settings in
composer.json to be installable (see “repositories” key)

Packagist
‣ Submitting is dead simple

Packagist
‣ Submitting is dead simple
‣ Create account, hit big green submit button

proprietary packages?

Satis to the Rescue
