Packagist

Package Repository Website for Composer, see the about page on packagist.org for more.

This project is not meant for re-use.

It is open source to make it easy to contribute. We provide no support if you want to run your own, and will do breaking changes without notice.

Check out Private Packagist if you want to host your own packages.

Development

These steps are provided for development purposes only.

Requirements

  • PHP for the web app
  • Symfony CLI to run the web server
  • MySQL for the main data store
  • Redis for some functionality (favorites, download statistics)
  • git / svn / hg depending on which repositories you want to support

Installation

  1. Clone the repository
  2. Create 2 databases:
    • packagist - for the web app
    • packagist_test - for running the tests
  3. Install dependencies: 
    composer install
npm install
    The composer install command will prompt you for the database connection details on first install. The connection url is stored in the .env files.
  4. Setup the database: 
    bin/console doctrine:schema:create
  5. Start the web server: 
    symfony serve
  6. Start Redis: 
    docker compose up -d # or somehow run redis on localhost without docker
  7. Run a CRON job bin/console packagist:run-workers to make sure packages update.
  8. Run npm run build or npm run dev to build (or build&watch) css/js files.

You should now be able to access the site, create a user, etc.

Fixtures

You can get test data by running the fixtures:

bin/console doctrine:fixtures:load

This will create 100 packages from packagist.org, update them from GitHub, populate them with fake download stats, and assign a user named dev (with password: dev) as their maintainer.
