Composer, Laravel and local packages
My issue is I have a package which isn't a repository and I am trying to get it to play nice with Laravel and composer. It is still located under the vendor folder, the only issue is that if I simply set:
"psr-0": {
"TestTest": "vendor/test/test/src/"
}
This will load the service provider but none of the controllers etc will autoload. What is the correct way to implement a package with larval that does not have it's own repository. Or does this go against the nature of packages and this should simply be structured under the applications controllers.
The package was created by me using workbench but I found i did not really need this as a separate repository but it would still be good to keep it as a package. Therefore the structure is exactly the same as a regular package:
vendor
testvendor
testpackage
public
src
tests
.gitignore
composer.json
phpunit.xml
UPDATE:
As a solution for the time being I am using:
"autoload": {
"classmap": [
"app/commands",
"app/controllers",
"app/models",
"app/database/migrations",
"app/database/seeds",
"app/tests/TestCase.php",
"vendor/package"
]
},
As an entry in the class map. Looking forward I will probably refactor this into the app folder or create a repository for this package.
If you have some classes that you're calling "package", you're not supposed to add those files to your vendor folder. This folder is managed by composer and at any time you might loose it. Create a subfolder in your application and put those files there.
You have to be sure your PSR-0 autoloading will work for every single file in your folder structure. So, if your root is vendor/test/test/src/ and your namespace is
TestTest
All your files must be in
vendor/test/test/src/Test/Test/ClassFileName.php
PSR-4 is easier to deal and understand, this
"psr-4": {
"TestTest": "vendor/test/test/src/"
}
Means that your files would have to be like:
vendor/test/test/src/ClassFileName.php
Doublecheck your namespaces. It's easy to make mistakes when using namespaces with PSR-0 and remember that
composer dump-autoload
Must be ran every time you change things in composer.json or create new files. If it's a simple class autoloading, every time you create a file, if it's a PSR-X autoloading, everytime you create or update a namespace in your composer.json file.
If what you have is is really a package you should use Composer: when your package is structured as a composer package (check Laravel's composer.json as an example), the correct way of adding it to your application, if it's not list in Packagist, is via repositories .
You can have (non-packagist) packages in a public VCS repository:
{
"require": {
"monolog/monolog": "dev-bugfix"
},
"repositories": [
{
"type": "vcs",
"url": "https://github.com/igorw/monolog"
}
]
}
You can have (non-packagist) packages in a protected by password VCS repository (git, bitbucket...):
{
"require": {
"vendor/my-private-repo": "dev-master"
},
"repositories": [
{
"type": "vcs",
"url": "git@bitbucket.org:vendor/my-private-repo.git"
}
]
}
You can have your packages zipped in your hard drive and load them via the artifact repository type:
"repositories": [
{
"type": "artifact",
"url": "path/to/directory/with/zips/"
}
],
Though @Antonio Carlos Ribeiro's answer is really nice, I had problem with installing custom packages locally(which is also stated in the last part of his answer)
Let's assume this is the directory structure of the package we are trying to install:
D:/test_pack
src/
composer.json
If you do not want to upload your custom package (that most likely you have developed, yourself) to online repositories you can use one of the following two methods:
Method I
(You have to specify version for your package, otherwise you'll get this error: The requested package could not be found in any version, there may be a typo in the package name.)
1) In composer.json, Add version to your package. your package's json should look something like this:
{
"name": "gandalf/test_pack",//This is your package's name
"description": "some desc",
"version": "1.0.0",//This is the version that you have to specify
"authors": [
{
"name": "gandalf the grey",
"email": "fake@yahoo.com"
}
],
"minimum-stability": "dev",
"require": {
"laravel/framework": "~5.4"
},
"autoload": {
"psr-4": {
"GandalfBotPack": "src/"
}
} }
2) zip your package(let's assume the zip file is in D:/test_pack/test_packa.zip)
3) In laravel's composer.json add your package name (in our case gandalf/test_pack into require part of json) and add the repository array to the composer.json file and in that array specify the directory in which your package's zip file exists(in our case D:/test_pack) . like this
{
...,
"require": {//adding our package name to laravel's composer.json
...,
"gandalf/test_pack": "*"//package's name
},
...,
"repositories": [
{
"type": "artifact",
"url": "D:/test_pack"
}
]
}
Method II (My Favorite method, You have to initialize your package directory as git local repository using git init and then git add . and git commit -m "your message" )
1) initialize the package directory as git directory and commit all your changes to the local repository
(let's say D:/test_pack is the directory that contains your package( src/ directory and composer.json ))
go to D:/test_pack directory and run these commands
git init
git add .
git commit -m "your message for this commit"
2) In your packages composer.json file add minimum-stability
{
"name": "gandalf/test_pack",
"description": "some desc",
"authors": [
{
"name": "gandalf the grey",
"email": "fake@yahoo.com"
}
],
"minimum-stability": "dev",//setting minimum-stability
"require": {
//dependencies that your package needs
},
"autoload": {
"psr-4": {
"GandalfBotPack": "src/"
}
}
}
3)In laravel's composer.json file require the "dev-master" of your package
{
...,
"require": {
...,//some dependencies that laravel needs
"gandalf/test_pack": "dev-master"//requiring dev-master from repository
},
"repositories": [
{
"type": "git",
"url": "D:/test_pack"//path of the local repository directory which contains your package
}
]
}
