Using multiple private repos in same vc location - composer-php

Question

To put it simpley the best I can: we have a private VC repo with a list of composer packages we use internally -- [our-bitbucket.com]/comp/
Each package has it's own repo. Each package is namespaced under [orgname]/ within their composer.json configuration.
What I'm trying to do is clean up this mess:
"repositories": [
{
"type": "vcs",
"url": "ssh://git#our-bitbucket.com/comp/package1",
"options": {
"ssh2": {
"username": "git",
"pubkey_file": ".ssh/pub-key",
"privkey_file": ".ssh/priv-key"
}
}
},
{
"type": "vcs",
"url": "ssh://git#our-bitbucket.com/comp/package2",
"options": {
"ssh2": {
"username": "git",
"pubkey_file": ".ssh/pub-key",
"privkey_file": ".ssh/priv-key"
}
}
},
// [... a dozen more times ...]
],
Is there any better and simpler way manage this? This repo list is getting pretty large. We need to clean it up. I don't suppose there's some way to add a global options for the keys? By host?

Answer 1

Here's a solution I found that assists in cleaning up this file: storing credentials in .ssh/config, modifying the URLs to match the config setting. e.g.
.ssh/config:
Host our-bitbucket.com
User git
IdentityFile /root/.ssh/priv-key
# ----------------------------
satis.json
"repositories": [
{"type": "vcs", "url": "ssh://git#our-bitbucket.com/comp/package2"},
//[... dozen more lines ...]
]
It at least saves us from having to define a priv/pub key for each and every repo definition.
