Composer-docker VS Packagist

The same principle applies to any other images you may depend on, such as composer for dependency installation. Select the image tag that matches the major composer version you're using on your machine — composer:2 instead of composer:latest.

I've got a local version of PHP installed, but I really don't need it. Composer has an official docker container: https://hub.docker.com/_/composer/

I found on the docs of the composer image, in the Troubleshooting section, that composer should not be used that way. So I put it inside the Php image with COPY --from=composer /usr/bin/composer /usr/bin/composer and it worked. Thanks for the help u/effata!

I run most of the projects I develop on through a docker image. If it's a PHP project with composer dependencies, I use a composer image to install its dependencies, when I want to run it I use a php image. If the PHP image does not include the dependencies required for the project, I will look for an image within the project that is used, or build my own image serving the purpose. I like to make things easy to run and use, so that if I leave a project for a while I want it to be easy to get started again. If the project requires multiple things running, like a database, I setup docker-compose to make it easy to start a PHP container and database container alongside eachother that can communicate.

There is a hard coded case for this now in the project https://github.com/composer/docker/blob/master/1.10/docker-entrypoint.sh#L6

The /app directory is specified working directory, from composer image via https://github.com/composer/docker/blob/582c6f4e10b6b8fbf9bc1c5b02d6ec24694fe8d4/2.0/Dockerfile#L60.

What will we do next time? Actually, the whole package is ready, and all that's left is to publish it on Packagist.

publishing our work on https://packagist.org/

The latter one is based on nix OS using Symfony flex recipes and PHP packagist composer. The flex devenv should work cross-platform on Linux, Windows, and Mac. "The main difference to other tools like Docker or a VM is that it neither uses containerization nor virtualization techniques. Instead, the services run natively on your machine."

Composer is (still) the defacto standard package manager, with the Packagist repo being the standard place to find and install libraries.

Sorta—it looks like they were most enforced by convention until May 2015, when they finally become enforced [0]. Still, that's a good one that I hadn't thought of, and they at least had the convention in place.

Scanning your image for vulnerabilities is a critical step before you deploy it to production. You can use Snyk to scan your PHP Docker image and identify and resolve vulnerabilities. The Snyk Vulnerability Database includes records for all popular operating systems and dependencies, including PHP packages published to Packagist.

No. The only linked commercial thing I know - is Nova admin panel interface lib. But you don't have to use it. (Filament or Encore are free and suitable). Modules are free ( packagist.org and gthub.com ) and you should handle them with standard composer package tool. But you need to code. It is not WordPress like CMS

Once you understand the underlying principles of a concept, you're free to find a library via packagist.org to use.

For strings I use Stringy (https://github.com/danielstjules/Stringy) for arrays I built my own Collection library, but pretty sure there are plenty in packagist (https://packagist.org/)

I guess I tried downloading a old version. and have to download a newer version of apiclient I found on https://packagist.org/packages/google/apiclient with monolog/monolog: ^2.9||^3.0. I'll try that in a second, I am away from computer now.
