Patching doesn't work

[VeeeneX]

I've tested with composer installed locally and it works but using a image it doesn't work at all.

Composer:

docker run --rm -v $(pwd):/app:rw -v $HOME/.composer:/composer -v /etc/passwd:/etc/passwd:ro  -v /etc/group:/etc/group:ro --user $(id -u):$(id -g) composer ${@:2} --no-ansi --no-interaction --no-progress --optimize-autoloader --ignore-platform-reqs

composer.json:

{
    "require": {
        "brouwers/shortcodes": "1.*"
    },
    "config": {
        "preferred-install": "source",
        "process-timeout": 1800,
        "discard-changes" : true
    },
    "extra": {
        "patches": {
            "brouwers/shortcodes": {
                "Fixed bugs from Updates": "https://github.com/patrickbrouwers/Laravel-Shortcodes/compare/master...VeeeneX:master.patch"
            }
        }
    }
}

First of all, you are talking about a feature that is not developed nor supported by Composer (we do not offer any kind of patching mechanism).

The errors presented however are quite clear. The arguments supplied to the patch binary are not supported by this version of patch. This is most likely the result of Alpine (the distro upon which our base image is based) which ships with BusyBox, and has a more limited version of the patch binary/command.

You will have to extend our base image and install the patch package for full support.

Sure I agree :)
