About the installation and use of php-composer (simplified version)

PHP 5.3.2 or above is required to run Composer.

curl -sS https://getcomposer.org/installer | php mv composer.phar
mv composer.phar /usr/local/bin/composer

apt-get update
apt-get install curl

After your Composer is installed, you can use the following Command to see if the installation is successful

composer -v

Note If the above method fails for some reason, you can also download the installer through php:

php -r "readfile('https://getcomposer.org/installer');" | php

This will check some PHP settings and then download c

to your working directory. This is the Composer binary. This is a PHAR package (PHP Archive), which is a PHP archive format that helps users perform some operations on the command line.

You can specify the Composer installation directory through the --install-dir option (it can be an absolute or relative path)

4. Use To start using Composer in your projects, you only need a

file. This file contains the project's dependencies and other metadata.

First create a composer.json file, write the corresponding package name and version number, such as

{    
    "require": {
        "monolog/monolog": "1.13.*"
    }
}

After this, a dependent package is written, and then installed Dependency package. Get the defined dependencies to your local project, and then use Composer to run the install command in your project directory (that is, the directory where

is located). <div class="code" style="position:relative; padding:0px; margin:0px;"><pre class="brush:php;toolbar:false">composer install</pre><div class="contentsignin">Copy after login</div></div>Of course, if you are in a Windows system, you can also install dependent packages by calling the

package. <div class="code" style="position:relative; padding:0px; margin:0px;"><pre class="brush:php;toolbar:false">php composer.phar install</pre><div class="contentsignin">Copy after login</div></div>Execute composer install to enter the automatic installation. After the installation is completed, a

file will be generated, which contains a specific version number. This file is required. Submit it to version management together with composer.json. Finally, when you need to update dependency packages, you can use the following command<div class="code" style="position:relative; padding:0px; margin:0px;"><pre class="brush:php;toolbar:false">composer update</pre><div class="contentsignin">Copy after login</div></div>If you only want to update some dependencies

composer update monolog/monolog

5. Automatic loading

For library autoloading information, Composer generates a

file. You can introduce it in the entry file of your project

<?php
require __DIR__ . &#39;/vendor/autoload.php&#39;;
?>

This makes it easy for you to use third-party code. For example: if your project depends on monolog, you can start using the library like this and they will be automatically loaded. <div class="code" style="position:relative; padding:0px; margin:0px;"><pre class="brush:php;toolbar:false">&lt;?php require __DIR__ . &amp;#39;/vendor/autoload.php&amp;#39;; $log = new Monolog\Logger(&amp;#39;name&amp;#39;); $log-&gt;pushHandler(new Monolog\Handler\StreamHandler('app.log', Monolog\Logger::WARNING)); $log-&gt;addWarning('Foo'); ?&gt;</pre><div class="contentsignin">Copy after login</div></div>6.Packagist/Composer China Full Image

Due to wall problems, foreign images of Composer often cannot be installed normally

, so it is recommended to use domestic ones Mirroring is used as follows

There are two ways to enable this mirroring service:

• Method 1: Modify composer's global configuration file
• Open the command line window (windows users) or console (Linux, Mac users) and execute the following command:

composer config -g repo.packagist composer https://packagist.phpcomposer.com

composer.json
configuration file of the current project:

Open the command line window (windows users) or console (Linux, Mac users) and enter In the root directory of your project (that is, the directory where the composer.json file is located), execute the following command:

composer config repo.packagist composer https://packagist.phpcomposer.com

The above command will be in the composer.json# in the current project. ## The mirror configuration information is automatically added at the end of the file (you can also add it manually):

"repositories": {
    "packagist": {
        "type": "composer",
        "url": "https://packagist.phpcomposer.com"
    }
}

Composer can not only help you In addition to installing the required dependency packages, you can also implement the function of automatically loading the namespace. When the function libraries and class libraries we write ourselves need to be automatically loaded, we can achieve this through composer.json

spl_autoload_register()

spl_autoload_register() function. . "For details, please see this article for detailed introduction" We add the following code in composer.json:

{
    "autoload": {
        "psr-4": {
            "Test\\": "test/",
            "Testtwo\\": "testtwo/"
        }
    }
}

这个配置文件中有一个 autoload 段,其中有个 《PSR-4》，psr-4 是一个基于 psr-4 规则的类库自动加载对应关系，只要在其后的对象中，以 ”命名空间“: “路径” 的方式写入自己的类库信息修改完成后，之后，在执行下列命令，即可完成自动加载。

composer dumpautoload

注： "psr-4": {"Test\\": "test/"} 中的 "test/" 路径为相对于  composer.json 的路径

这个时候，你就可以调用你自己编写的函数库或者类库了

<?php
require __DIR__ . &#39;/vendor/autoload.php&#39;;

$testClass = new \Test\Testclass();
?>
