Talk:Composer

further plans
There are many extensions witch helps to put extensions dependency under control (like Extension:Wiki Administration Tool). Is there a purpose to use composer instead or as a base? Exbe (talk) 21:41, 4 January 2013 (UTC)

Extension Configuration
Many extensions rely on or benefit from configuration. How is this accomplished with Composer? —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 76.107.83.121 (talk • contribs) 18:23, 15 December 2013 (UTC)
 * I'm wondering the same. --Nemo 13:15, 1 January 2014 (UTC)
 * Well, I think this is not the focus of Composer, so configuration will always have to be done in LocalSettings.php, except for the extensions invocation since they get autoloaded once installed. --&#91;&#91;kgh&#93;&#93; (talk) 17:30, 9 January 2014 (UTC)

No shell access
Looks like a great step forward (congrats!), but how do we run this on a shared host? Cavila (MW 1.19.7, MySQL 5.1.72-2, Php 5.3.3-7, SMW 1.8.0.5, SF 2.5.2) 16:24, 16 December 2013 (UTC)
 * My question has been answered elsewhere. You can't install this without shell access. Cavila (MW 1.22, MySQL 5.1.72-2, Php 5.3.3-7 squeeze, SMW 1.9.0.1, SF 2.6.1) 17:23, 8 January 2014 (UTC)
 * Obviously, you can use Composer to install things locally and just copy everything over to the server. --Nikerabbit (talk) 18:20, 8 January 2014 (UTC)

Uninstall?
How does one uninstall an extension that was installed using Composer? —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Lsilverman (talk • contribs) 22:00, 17 December 2013 (UTC)


 * I guess you first have to remove the extension from composer.json and then remove it from LocalSettings.php. Maybe there is a command like ? I've never used that software. Perhaps you only have to remove the extension from composer.json and run   afterwards, but I guess the frist solution is the proper one.  Tim (SVG)  15:07, 1 January 2014 (UTC)
