Composer - Dependency Management for PHP

Composer helps you declare, manage and install dependencies of PHP projects, ensuring you have the right stack everywhere.

See https://getcomposer.org/ for more information and documentation.

Build Status Dependency Status Reference Status

Installation / Usage

  1. Download the composer.phar executable or use the installer.

    $ curl -sS https://getcomposer.org/installer | php

    Note: If the above fails for some reason, you can download the installer with php instead:

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

  2. Create a composer.json defining your dependencies. Note that this example is a short version for applications that are not meant to be published as packages themselves. To create libraries/packages please read the documentation.

    {
    "require": {
        "monolog/monolog": ">=1.0.0"
    }
}

  3. Run Composer: php composer.phar install

  4. Browse for more packages on Packagist.
