使用Composer安装我自己的应用程序

Question

Is there a way to get composer to download my application into my root folder?

I'd like users to be able to run the following in their docroot:

composer require name/package

And have that download all my application files to the docroot, then install dependencies into vendor via the composer.json file.

composer install

Is this even possible?

I thought I could use the repositories directive in the composer.json but it still installs all my files into vendor

My composer.json looks like so:

{
    "name": "username/package",
    "description": "My App Description",
    "require": {
        "php": ">=5.5.0",
        "raven/raven": "0.11.0",
        "filp/whoops": "~1.0",
        "robmorgan/phinx": "*",
        "swiftmailer/swiftmailer": "@stable"
    },
    "minimum-stability": "dev"
}

Any way to add my package and have it install where I want?

Answer 1

Ok I found the answer: create-project

composer create-project name/package public_html --stability="dev"

This will create the public_html directory and download all the dependencies.

Perfect.
