Composer Updates

[bd-viget]

Summary

There are a few things that need to be addressed to optimize the composer create-project command.

Items to Address

• Is there a way to require directory specification when running composer create-project? (i.e. composer create-project viget/wordpress-site-starter .)
• Fix Post Install Error: Insufficient permission to create directory '/Users/briandichiara/Sites/_projects/sample-project/'. "Failed to run wp core download". (confirm ddev is running this command, use Container relative path)
• Maybe check to be sure ddev is installed.
• Add postCreateProject code to remove composer/composer dependency from require-dev
• Add postCreateProject code to remove symfony/console dependency from require-dev
• Delete the bin/composer-scripts/ProjectEvents/PostCreateProjectScript.php file.
• Delete the bin/composer-scripts/ProjectEvents/PreInstallScript.php file.
• Delete the "post-create-project-cmd" object from "scripts" in composer.json
• Delete the "pre-install-cmd" object from "scripts" in composer.json
• Update the Repo README to document using composer create-project
• Maybe add a 2nd Project README for new projects and replace the wordpress-site-starter README during PostCreateProject.
• Maybe add a "repositories/vcs" entry to composer.json for testing create-project locally. - Also, don't forget to delete this on PostCreateProject

It is possible... I'm actually doing that as part of my starter script so it puts it in the root of your current directory.

Not sure if this is what you mean... but you can call composer-create from a git repo (without publishing on Packagist).

I've used that to try things out without tagging a release.

You can tack this on the end.

composer create-project viget/wordpress-site-starter --repository="{\"url\": \"https://github.com/joshuapease/craft-starter-2\", \"type\": \"vcs\"}" --stability=dev --remove-vcs

@joshuapease Thanks for the tips!

It is possible... I'm actually doing that as part of my starter script so it puts it in the root of your current directory.

This is what I was planning on adding in the Github repo, I was just wondering if there was some way to force it so you couldn't call composer create-project viget/wordpress-site-starter without specifying a directory (like it hits some kind of validation error). I guess it's no big deal if they create a project and it goes into a folder called wordpress-site-starter, but because we're running all the scripts to set up ddev and such, it might be a bit of a hassle to move the project or rename the folder once it's created.
