Laravel 4.2 - 阻止作曲家更新特定包

Question

I have the following dependency in composer.json:

"maatwebsite/excel": "1.*",

and I altered one of the classes to introduce some desired features, such as setting headers. Problem is, updating with composer overrides my changes. What is the right way to handle this ? Specifying some way that I don`t want this package to be updated, or maybe extract this package somewhere in my source code ?

Answer 1

You can set the version the exact current version, instead of the wildcard version you have now (*)

1.3 seems to be the newest 1.* version: https://github.com/Maatwebsite/Laravel-Excel/tree/1.3
