Cannot install library using composer

[manojmilani123]

Hi

I am trying to install this package/library using composer but it gives me below error:

Problem 1
- The requested package google/apiclient No version set (parsed as 1.0.0) is satisfiable by google/apiclient[No version set (parsed as 1.0.0)] but these conflict with your requirements or minimum-stability.
Problem 2
- Installation request for google/apiclient ^2.0 -> satisfiable by google/apiclient[v2.0.0].
- google/apiclient v2.0.0 requires google/auth 0.8 -> satisfiable by google/auth[v0.8] but these conflict with your requirements or minimum-stability.

Any fix?

Thanks,
Manoj M

@manojmilani123 have you tried adding this dependency directly to your composer file and running composer update? i.e.:

{
  "require": {
    "some-depencdency": "...",
    "google/apiclient": "^2.0",
  }
}

And now run composer update. This should install the library successfully.

any solution for this issue?

Try adding "google/apiclient": "^2.0" directly to composer.json and running composer update and you'll have a better time.

Composer won't update your existing deps unless you run composer update, so it behaves differently when you simply use composer require, and in this case, throws an error.

Did you ever find a solution?

• Install Composer (PHP Package manager like NPM).
• Create a new folder "GoogleAPI".
• Create a new file composer.json with the following content.

{
  "require": {
    "google/apiclient": "^2.0"
  }
}

• Open CMD from this folder (GoogleAPI)
• Run following command in CMD
  composer update

Then it will start loading files....
