Using Composer

[Alpine418]

Hi.

I've stopped using PW end of last year and shut off all my websites. Until then I could add a custom composer.json in the root dir of my PW installations. But now I'm building a new website with PW and just saw in the root dir of the latest blank installation a composer.json of @ryan.

How should I handle my custom composer settings like PSR-4 autoloading? Can I just customize and add my custom setting in the already existing composer.json like this (check the few latest lines in code below) or are there better practises?

    }
  ],
  "require": {
    "php": ">=5.5",
    "ext-gd": "*"
  },
  "autoload": {
    "files": [ 
		"wire/core/ProcessWire.php" 
		"site/my-custom-functions.php"
	],
	"psr-4": {
		"My\\Custom\\": "site/classes"
	},
  }
}

Thanks for your support!

Hello,

Yes this is where I manage my namespaces and dependencies and it works fine.

"autoload": {
    "files": [
      "wire/core/ProcessWire.php"
    ],
    "psr-4": {
      "Rfro\\Rfrorga\\ProcessWire\\": "site/templates/",
      "ProcessWire\\": "site/classes/",
      "Rfro\\Rfrorga\\WebApi\\": "webApi/",
      "Rfro\\Rfrorga\\Cron\\": "cron/"
    }
  },
  "require-dev": {
    "phpunit/phpunit": "9.5.28",
    "dbrekelmans/bdi": "^1.0"
  },
  "autoload-dev": {
    "psr-4": {
      "Rfro\\Rfrorga\\ProcessWire\\": "site/src-tests/"
    }
  },

Thank you very much! I already thought this is the way, but it is good to hear an approval from a professional.

To be honest I'm not an expert with composer, I did some research to configure properly PHP and found this way. It's working locally, working on production server, PhpStorm is not complying and generates the corresponding namespaces when I create a class... so I think this is good. 🙂
