How to add dependencies with composer in ILIAS

New dependencies need to be approved by the Jour Fixe of the ILIAS society.

Dependencies for production

• Comment all lines in libs/.gitignore
• Add a new library using composer, e.g. "composer require filp/whoops"
• Documents the usage and your wrapper class in composer.josn, e.g.:

"filp/whoops" : {
  "source" : "github.com/filp/whoops",
  "used_version" : "v2.1.0",
  "wrapped_by" : null,
  "added_by" : "Denis Klöpfer <[email protected]>",
  "last_update" : "2016-03-22",
  "last_update_by" : "Jörg Lützenkirchen <[email protected]>"
},

• Run "composer install --no-dev"
• Add all files to ILIAS git-repository and commit
• Run "composer install" to reinstall dev-dependencies and build autoload.php
• ignore all dependencies installed now (which are dev-requirements only)
• add and commit changes in libs/.gitgnore and autoload.php etc.

Dependencies for development

• Add a new library using composer, e.g. "composer require --dev phpunit/phpunit"
• Ignore all directories which are added by installation (uncomment existing)
• commit changes in autoload.php etc.

Update a single dependency

• Search the name of dependency you like to update.
• Update by using "composer update --no-dev <DEPENDENCIE_NAME>"
• Commit all changes in composer.lock and the vendor folder
