Already installed composer to 'C:/xampp/htdocs/crud' with cmd. However trying to install laravel via the 'composer create-project --prefer-dist laravel/laravel blog' command does not download or install anything. The 'composer global require laravel/installer' command produces the same result.
PS: don't know if it wrecks anything but, I was having trouble running the composer command at first, kept saying there is no app to open '.phar' files. I found an answer here that asked me run .phar files with php.exe by default and thats what i did.
A picture to show what happens when I run the composer commands to install laravel...
I have installed Composer as per the instructions command not found
After installing I get the prompt that Composer is successfully installed but when I go to check the version it gives me error "Composer: Command Not Found"
I have been looking how to fix this issue and I had to read and understand little bit and the environment variables on MAC.
I understand the issue looks simple but it will get over complicated if you didn't understand how to install composer probably.
Solution 1
I found this solution here: https://duvien.com/blog/installing-composer-mac-osx
Open a terminal and navigate to your user directory, ie cd /User//
Run this command shown below to download Composer. This will create a Phar (PHP Archive) file called composer.phar:
curl -sS https://getcomposer.org/installer | php
Now we move composer.phar file to a directory
sudo mv composer.phar /usr/local/bin/
We want to run Composer with having to be root al the time, so we need to change the permissions:
sudo chmod 755 /usr/local/bin/composer.phar
Next, we need to let Bash know where to execute Composer:
nano ~/.bash_profile
Add this line below to bash_profile and save
alias composer="php /usr/local/bin/composer.phar"
and then run this command:
source ~/.bash_profile
Finally, run:
composer --version
Solution 2:
I understand that the first command you will find online when you try to google this issue would be
curl -sS https://getcomposer.org/installer | php
But actually this is the main terminal installation but sometimes I wanted to manually install the composer, so this 2nd solution about manually installing the composer in specific directory
First of all you need to understand where are you now on the terminal
use
pwd
and then install composer manually using the following commands
php -r "copy('https://getcomposer.org/installer', 'composer-setup.php');"
php -r "if (hash_file('sha384', 'composer-setup.php') ==='baf1608c33254d00611ac1705c1d9958c817a1a33bce370c0595974b342601bd80b92a3f46067da89e3b06bff421f182') { echo 'Installer verified'; } else { echo 'Installer corrupt';
unlink('composer-setup.php'); } echo PHP_EOL;"
php composer-setup.php
php -r "unlink('composer-setup.php');"
to use it on that case you will read on the terminal to use this composer installation use
Use it: php composer.phar
so just write
php composer.phar
and it should be working.... one more thing, during this installation you can install the composer to specific directory / project folder... in that case you can use a flag with command No.4 to tell the terminal to install the composer in specific directory...this flag is --install-dir=your-directory-path
and you will the terminal this time after installing composer asking you to use the following path to call the composer
Use it: php /Users/muatafa/composer.phar
if you want to read more about this issue, I think you must read the composer documentation how to install it>>> https://getcomposer.org/download/
that's how I solved my current issue... if you still have any issues comment on this replay & Hopefully we can figure it out!
I had the same problem. "composer require something" works if installed in global and not locally.
If you install composer locally you'll then install dependencies using "php composer.phar require nameofyoudependency"
To install globally open a terminal to install as mentionned on the composer website. Then run "sudo mv composer.phar /usr/local/bin/composer"
Now you can use "composer" directly to install dependencies like => "composer require something/sdk"
the composer you installed is still named /usr/local/bin/composer.phar - look in the second yellow/brownish line in your output. Just rename it to just composer
Your composer command is not set to path, use
export PATH=$PATH:/usr/local/bin/
I had the same issue, After installing composer using the command line on their website. I forgot to put composer.phar into a directory on my PATH, so it can simply be called from any directory (Global install). and then I ran this command "sudo mv composer.phar /usr/local/bin/composer" and it was resolved
I figured out. in place of "composer require twilio/sdk" I needed to use
"composer.phar require twilio/sdk" since I am on mac. It worked
MacOS 10.13.3 (17D102)
I have composer 1.6.3 installed on PHP 7.1.7.
My end goal is to set up Drupal 8 in a dual Docker container setup; web in one, DB in another. We have scripts to do that. I cannot update this script.
When I try to run that script, I get errors like "composer: command not found".
On the command line, composer works, but in my .bash_profile, I see:
alias composer="php /usr/local/bin/composer.phar"
so that alias isn't available to my script (guess).
Others running composer on Mac don't have the alias. On their machines:
type composer
reveals
composer is hashed (/usr/local/bin/composer)
So they don't use an alias and the script does work.
What is the best way to get composer available to scripts? A fresh and different install method for composer?
I am following the composer developer Tutorial: https://hyperledger.github.io/composer/tutorials/developer-guide.html
Everything worked till the point when I am running from the command line:
$ composer archive create -a dist/my-network.bna --sourceType dir --sourceName .
-bash: fds: command not found
The composer command was not found. When built by npm install the script can execute the composer command within the package.json
Next I installed php composer from: https://getcomposer.org - Which might be the wrong package?
$ composer network deploy
[Symfony\Component\Console\Exception\CommandNotFoundException]
Command "network" is not defined.
My 2 questions: is this the right package, if not how can I remove it safely?
Furthermore, how can I execute the composer command.
You need to npm install -g composer-cli -- please refer to the documentation.
I tried to clone some packages to my symfony projects, but it seems there are some issues with repository servers.
My command stays there for ever and does nothing:
$ php composer.phar require sonata-project/admin-bundle
Does anyone know how to work around it?
Thanks,
