I'm working on a wordpress skeleton for practice. I've got a Composer project and installed the wp-cli/wp-cli dependency.
I want to create and run custom tasks with this wp-cli, for example to download the core of WordPress into this project. This because I'm not putting the core of wordpress into my git repository.
Because I have installed the wp-cli/wp-cli dependency only in my project and not globally over my local machine, I can't run the wp ... commands a normal terminal.
For my own research, I found out that I can use the Command Line Tool Support plugin in my IntelliJ IDE. With this plugin I can use the composer dependency to run commands with the wp-cli. I don't think this is the right solution, because everyone might have a different IDE and/or operating system.
How can I run wp-cli commands over the installation over Composer?
Instead of running commands with /vendor/bin/wp ..... I found out I have to replace the / with a \.
To run commands from this binary, this syntax should be used like:
vendor\bin\wp ...

I run different versions of Symfony and PHP on my Mac for various apps I have to work on (sorry that our clients are so slow to get to upgrade), and I'm trying to install the LTS version of Symfony through the CLI documentation recommendations, but I'm trying to get it to use a composer.phar in the folder I run the command in... it keeps defaulting to the globally-installed one.
Sure I could just go change composer's execution path or upgrade/downgrade it temporarily whenever I want to run the cli for x version of PHP, but that's gonna drive me crazy and I'd rather see how to tell it to run a certain composer.phar file. I'm not seeing in the documentation how to do this to get the benefits of the --webapp option.
The documentation is weird on it anyway; I can't tell if running composer directly (as composer.phar) will give me the benefits of the --webapp option using the symfony command (because the composer commands are identical for 'traditional web application' and 'console application or API'):
https://symfony.com/doc/5.4/setup.html#creating-symfony-applications
# run this if you are building a traditional web application
$ symfony new my_project_directory --version=5.4 --webapp
# run this if you are building a microservice, console application or API
$ symfony new my_project_directory --version=5.4
# run this if you are building a traditional web application
$ composer create-project symfony/skeleton:"^5.4" my_project_directory
$ cd my_project_directory
$ composer require webapp
# run this if you are building a microservice, console application or API
$ composer create-project symfony/skeleton:"^5.4" my_project_directory
When I run the install through composer directly, I can't tell if I'm getting the benefits of the symfony command --webapp option... and I'm not seeing an option for the symfony command to specify to use the folder's composer.phar.
I had to cheat a little bit: I installed the latest composer using the instructions here to a composer.phar file:
https://getcomposer.org/download/
I then created a console alias like php composer.phar, ran the Symfony create composer command with that alias, which created the symfony-5 folder no problem, then I copied the composer.phar file to the new folder and run the alias for any other composer commands, like with require webapp, which is working! Kind of nice to freeze a version of composer for any similar repos.
Maybe not the best answer, but it's working.
Also I discovered that I could just run composer self-update to get the latest version, which worked, then composer self-update [whatever version number] to get back to one I need that works with other repos (since certain version ranges just do not work with certain version ranges of PHP). Annoying, but functional.
Ultimately I think moving forward, it's best to make a copy of composer.phar at a compatible version range for your older PHP apps, depending on their versions, and use those in an alias, rather than totally rely on a global composer version, which has proven not completely workable for my work.
Help install the eisenvault-esign module.
I tried to install files
"eisenvault-esign/ev-esign-repo/target/ev-esign-repo-1.0-SNAPSHOT.amp"
in the "\amps" folder
and
"eisenvault-esign/ev-esign-share/target/ev-esign-share-1.0-SNAPSHOT.amp"
in the "\amps_share" folder
But when you start apply_amps.bat module is not installed.
Alfresco version 5.2
Below is the execution process.
When you run apply_amps.sh you need to pass in the -force flag because the module you are trying to install overwrites shipped libraries as indicated by your console screenshot.
You should also file an issue with the owner of that project to ask them to adjust their AMPs so that they can be installed without the force flag.
I've been getting to drupal and recently found out about composer. I use the following command to create a dev drupal instance:
composer create-project drupal-composer/drupal-project:~8.x-dev <folder-name> --stability dev --no-interaction
I was wondering what the package name is for the stable release of drupal.
Thank you.
You shouldn't need to change anything about your core build, both development and production will be running the current build of drupal/core. But modules like Devel or Stage File Proxy can be added to the require-dev section in your composer.json and installed while doing development and kept out of the build on production.
Hopefully this link will help: https://www.drupal.org/docs/8/update/update-core-via-composer#update-drupal-8-core
The very last part about Production environments says to run composer install --no-dev to remove any dev dependencies from the build.
I'm trying to manage my remote shared hosting WordPress installation via WP-CLI installed on my local Windows machine. So far I have managed to install WP-CLI (The "WP" command is available to run).
But when I try and connect to a remote URL with "wp --http", I get the following messsage:
RESTful WP-CLI needs to be installed. Try 'wp package install wp-cli/restful'
So I run the suggested command and I get:
Composer directory for packages couldn't be created.
I hadn't installed via composer. Instead, I manually instaled PHP and then downloaded the "wp-cli.phar" file. So I tried to install composer on Windows, but couldn't make head or tail of what downloads where. I "think" I managed to install wp-cli, but couldn't see where it had installed the files...and it just didn't work out.
Do you guys know of a more straightforward way to do this?
Concerning the error: Composer directory for packages couldn't be created.
If you did not set the environment variable WP_CLI_PACKAGES_DIR the default is ~/.wp-cli/packages/ which works for Linux but not for Windows.
I set this variable and the command 'wp package install wp-cli/restful' now successfully creates the directory for packages and the composer.json file but still doesn't install wp-cli/restful.
So I used composer directly and it successfully installs wp-cli/restful.
If I use the parameter --http=me.local.com (which matches example in the documentation) I get the error "Couldn't auto-discover WP REST API endpoint from me.local.com.' However, if I change this to --http=me.local.com/wp-json it works. The actual command I used is:
wp --http=me.local.com/wp-json rest post list
I've got a VPS setup with Nginx & PHP5-FPM.
Being fairly new to unix, VPS etc... it took me ages to get the setup I wanted.
However Now I want to be able to install some extensions onto PHP without haveing to rebuild the entire thing. For example. Is there a way to install the php_tidy extension on an existing PHP setup?
You can compile an extensions as a shared library. Then you just have to declare your module in the php.ini.
There is a description at php.net for phpize.
Performance differences between a module and a full compilation are discussed here.
Check out the documentation at http://pecl.php.net/ on how to install PHP extensions.
It's usually as easy as running a command such as
pecl install tidy
