PHP - Composer.json Files For Installing Apps Automatically
I like to set up websites for people who don't have the know how to do it themselves, I mainly set them up wordpress sites cuz thats pretty easy for them to modify and maintain themselves. To save myself time, I decided to learn how to do it with Composer (what a brilliant tool that it). Can anyone who uses composer for this kinda thing, can you post your composer.json files here. Also, if anyone can show me a better way of doing things, it'd be much appreciated. Heres the one I made:
{ "name": "acme/brilliant-wordpress-site", "description": "My brilliant WordPress site", "repositories":[ { "type":"composer", "url":"http://wpackagist.org" } ], "require": { "johnpbloch/wordpress": ">=3.8.0", "wpackagist-plugin/captcha":">=3.9", "wpackagist-plugin/tinymce-advanced":">=4.0.0", "wpackagist-plugin/wordpress-importer":"*", "wpackagist-theme/hueman":"*", "wpackagist-theme/eclipse":"*", "wpackagist-theme/raindrops":"*" }, "extra": { "installer-paths": { "mysite": ["johnpbloch/wordpress"], "mysite/wp-content/plugins/{$name}": ["type:wordpress-plugin"], "mysite/wp-content/themes/{$name}": ["type:wordpress-theme"] } }, "autoload": { "psr-0": { "Acme": "src/" } } }I think I'm doing this in a silly way though. I read about these composer installer things on github, but I didn't figure out how to use them so instead I used the installer-paths key to make the autoloader put the files in the right place. Heres a composer.json file I found which is better cuz it uses a post installation script: { "require": { "wordpress/core": "3.5.2", "wordpress/twentytwelve": "1.1", "wordpress/akismet": "2.5.7", "wordpress/google-sitemap-generator": "3.2.9", "wordpress/google-analytics-for-wordpress": "4.3.3", "wordpress/wordpress-importer": "0.6.1" }, "repositories": [ { "type": "composer", "url": "https://raw.github.com/wordpressoncomposer/composer-repository/master/" }, { "type": "vcs", "url": "https://github.com/wordpressoncomposer/installer" } ], "scripts": { "post-install-cmd": "Wordpress\\Composer\\InstallerTasks::wpConfig" }, "extra": { "wordpress_coredir": "wordpress/core", "wordpress_wp_contentdir": "wordpress/wp-content", "wordpress_wp_config": { "site_url": "http://localhost", "db_host": "localhost", "db_user": "root", "db_pass": "", "db_name": "wordpress" } }, "minimum-stability": "dev" }I'm gonna start using these scripts once I figure out how to use them. Where are the scripts stored? I haven't a clue what this autoload thing is all about either, is it a tool for moving files into the appropriate directories? See how the first file gets wordpress from packagist, and the second one gets it from github. Is there a difference? If I was to add that post-install-cmd key to the first composer.json file, would it still work? In other words, do both repositories contain identical packages. Similar TutorialsHi.
My sys admin guy has informed me that installing composer is unlikely. They're a bit jumpy about security around here.
I tried to download and run Laravel on it's own but I'm getting errors when I go to http://example.com/t...laravel/public/
Warning: require(/var/www/html/test/laravel/bootstrap/../vendor/autoload.php): failed to open stream: No such file or directory in /var/www/html/test/laravel/bootstrap/autoload.php on line 17 Fatal error: require(): Failed opening required '/var/www/html/test/laravel/bootstrap/../vendor/autoload.php' (include_path='.:/php/includes:/var/www/html/php/includes:/jpa/release/jpa/includes:/usr/share/pear:/usr/share/php/phpmailer:/apache/htdocs/applications/surveys/Includes:/var/lib/ZF1/library') in /var/www/html/test/laravel/bootstrap/autoload.php on line 17I'm very new to Laravel and I am basically assuming that the reason for these errors is because i haven't installed all the various dependancies. And that you can only install all the dependancies through Composer. Is this the case? I downloaded the Laravel framework from GitHub Unfortunately.. My only real experience of PHP Frameworks is CodeIgniter. So I've never expoled/used "packages" or "dependancies" and don't really know where they are, or where they go, or what they do! I managed to get Laravel up and running on my personal computer (using Composer).... But, as I've said, I might not be able to do this on my day job server. Any tips? ----- Update ----- Is there a chance I am just misunderstanding the word "Dependancies"? It's not a word I often use. Does it just mean "The PHP files that make up the Laravel Framework"? Edited by Korferer, 19 November 2014 - 08:11 AM. Hey guys so I am making an online App website. So I need to it to be so some apps will be added by default. Then users can search for apps and "install" apps but really just have them show up on the homepage. So how would the database design work like have a field that is updated to 1 if the user has it installed and 0 if its not. And then do like an if statement to pull all the fields with 1 where username='$username'. And when it pulls it should I add like a URL field to it to so when it pulls the app information there will be a link to the app url. Could somebody please help me with what I should do because I am really confused on what design and if statements I should use
In php how could I build a .net application? So I have a source that I want to build in .net, but i'm not sure how... Hey all
I have been building sites for a long time and I am pretty confident in modern frameworks like Bootstrap etc. I have played about with JQuery Mobile and UI. I know how to make mobile sites from a front end side. I understand that I can upload my site to PhoneGap and turn it into a native app.
However, I would love to know how to make useful apps that dont just display static text. E.g. using things like Google Places API.
I know how to make mobile sites easily enough that display info. I just don't really understand how to link that up with dynamic data from APIs etc. How to feed that content back to the user.
For a vasic example, say I wanted to have a simple app that had a search box. You enter 'PIZZA' into it and it comes back with a result of all local pizza spots. How would I do that?
If someone could point me in the right direction for where I could experiment with this I would be really grateful . I just built a new app and I used the same shopping cart class I created in a previous app. This way when I add something in the old app's shopping cart, it also shows up my new app's cart Any ideas how can I solve this ? I have my dns set so that it uses google servers to handle my email. I have a spf record: Host: @ TXT Value: v=spf1 include:_spf.google.com ~all However if I want to send mail using the php mail function how do I do this? because it is getting seen a spam because I assume it is not being seen as coming from google servers but from my websites server?... what do I do in this case? Dear Friends,
I have 3 different Applications under the same server. Please, could you help me to share info between them?
App1 is a "User Admin Application". Here the user should do the login. After the login, the User should be able to open App2 or/and App3 I was wondering about developing simple client side graphical apps.
I was thinking of using php with an ODBC connection to the data store.
The data store might be a text file in CSV format or something similar. (maybe even a spreadsheet)!
I was wondering what would be a very simple minimally useful web server to run on the client?
The client would probably be MS Windows XP/7.
What are your thoughts?

I have mysql installed. I have just installed myphpadmin and put it in IIS root. When I go to myphpadmin default page it cannot run the scripts. I need to install php I guess, but really have very little idea. Did some searching, but had some difficulty, what is the quickest and easiest way to install php to support my just installed myphpadmin? Hi there, I wonder if anyone can help me. I'm trying to install smarty. The problem I'm having is in choosing the correct path directory for- require('/usr/local/lib/php/Smarty/Smarty.class.php'); Granted I am relatively new to coding. I've tried using- <?php echo $_SERVER['DOCUMENT_ROOT']; ?> which returns- /usr/local/apache/htdocs I think the problem is in understanding what my local directory is. In my ftp program, the first folder looks like this firstfolder/ public_html/ ( < I've installed smarty in this one) DO_NOT_UPLOAD_HERE.txt When I run a test file index.php, I get the following error- Warning: require() [function.require]: open_basedir restriction in effect. File(/usr/local/public_html/lib/php/Smarty/Smarty.class.php) is not within the allowed path(s): (/home/:/usr/lib/php:/tmp) in /home/a4808331/public_html/index.php on line 4 What I've put in my index.php file so far which I'm sure is wrong is- require('/usr/local/public_html/lib/php/Smarty/Smarty.class.php'); If you need more info I'd be happy to supply. Thanks in advance for your help. I have tryied to install this twice and both times i havnt got it working or am just not using it right, any idears or tips? This topic has been moved to Installation on Linux. http://www.phpfreaks.com/forums/index.php?topic=331948.0 This topic has been moved to Other Libraries and Frameworks. http://www.phpfreaks.com/forums/index.php?topic=322457.0 php74 is installed as my primary php, but I am also working with a different framework that can only use php73 and set up a separate pool to deal with it. Recently, my installed composer1 told me I should upgrade to composer2 and I did so, but then found that the previously mentioned other framework also doesn't work with composer2 but only composer1. When updating a package with composer, sometimes I get composer errors or even worse no composer errors but PHP errors later on where classes don't exist, and I think it relates to using the wrong version of PHP (and maybe even composer). Is it always required to consistently use composer with a single version of PHP? Anything to worry about different versions of composer or will I just get a message. Any other best practices?

I've only seen composer packages using vendor name and package name namespace. Is it possible to use deeper namespace such as the following? For instance, package: { "name": "notioncommotion/my-sub-namespace/my-package", "description": "MyPackage located in MySubNamespace.", ... } is used in some project: { "require": { "notioncommotion/my-sub-namespace/my-package": "^1.2" } } If not, what do you think were the reasons composer does not allow? Thanks I'm beginning to study Composer and am developing a system where I separate the files core application files, as follows:
/root |-- /src |-- /App |-- /DBConfig |-- /Controller |-- /Model |-- /Core |-- /Helper |-- /Controller |-- /ModelSo, to set this setting in composer.json file and get access to all classes both /App much /Core would be this way? "autoload" : { "psr-X" : { "App\\" : "/src", "Core\\" : "/src" } }Or is there a more correct way? I have also read about PSR-0 vs PSR-4 and I am still somewhat in doubt which one to use. In my case what should I implement, PSR-0 or PSR-4? how to install linux on a netbook without a dvd-drive.
i think about buying a new notebook there are several ones that come up to mind. question should i buy one without a dvd-drive? there are many many out there - eg the ACER Aspire V3-371-36MA but many of them do not have a dvd. question: how can i install suse linux on this notebook and how should / could i do an update. well - do you reccomend to buy a notebook with a. a dvd drive - is this mandantory b. a notebook with more than 4 gb ram!? love to hear from you Does anyone know how I can go about downloading a specific build of PHP on a Raspberry Pi running Raspbian?
I want to try to create a development/testing webserver using the Pi, but I want it to have the same versions of PHP and MySQL that are on my actual production server (which is shared hosting using a web host).
So far, using apt-get, all it does is install the latest version available, which I don't want to do. I want a specific version to closely imitate the actual production server.
Ideas?
Quick question about the dependency manager Composer with PHP. I have it installed and am pulling in a few libraries, it works pretty well as far as I can tell. I have a question that might be dumb, so I apologize in advance. When connecting to your application it's still required to use the lines similar to the following? <script src="vendor/components/jquery/jquery.min.js"></script> <link rel="stylesheet" href="vendor/twbs/bootstrap/dist/css/bootstrap.css" > Also I'm trying to figure out how to install the x3dom library, but cannot get composer to do it.
