git clone https://yourrepository.com/path/to/repo.gitNavigate into the project directory:
cd path/to/repoIt's recommended to use a virtual environment for Python projects. Create and activate one with:
python3 -m venv venv
source venv/bin/activate # On Windows use `venv\Scripts\activate`Install the required Python packages:
pip install -r requirements.txtTo use the package updater, execute the app.py script from the command line:
python app.pyMake sure to adjust the composer_file_path in app.py to point to your composer.json file:
composer_file_path = 'path/to/your/composer.json'No additional configuration is needed. However, you can customize the logging level and other settings by modifying the Python scripts directly.
The PackageUpdater class in package_updater.py reads your composer.json, queries Packagist for the latest versions of each package, and updates your composer.json file accordingly. It differentiates between PHP extensions and regular packages to only update what's necessary.
