I have created a Composer package which is designed to be installed globally, it's basically a package to spin up Docker environments for projects that I use a lot for local development. I'd like to share my package but would like to make it more user friendly.
Currently when the package is installed (with composer global require me/my-package-name), the user needs to take some extra steps:
cd into the install location and run composer install (inside the root of my package in their vendor dir)
On MacOS, users also need to run cd docker && chmod +x phpenv
Add above docker folder to their PATH
I'm trying to make this less of a pain, so I attempted to add a post package install command - composer.json:
"scripts": {
"post-package-install": [
"DannyXCII\\Environment\\Install\\Installer::postPackageInstall"
]
},
public static function postPackageInstall(): void
{
$path = dirname(__DIR__, 3);
exec("cd $path && composer install && composer update && composer dump-autoload && cd docker && chmod +x phpenv");
}
After trying and failing to get this to work when installing this globally I realise now that this script won't get called when this package is installed, only when packages are required and composer install is ran inside this package, as:
Note: Only scripts defined in the root package's composer.json are executed. If a dependency of the root package specifies its own scripts, Composer does not execute those additional scripts.
So, I believe in this case, the solution would be to add this script to the root project - so I'd need to update this script and add to the composer.json file in C:\Users\Danny\AppData\Roaming\Composer(?), as would anyone else wanting to use this - so this doesn't solve my issues regarding usability.
I have been searching and attempting to resolve this for a while but found this quite a difficult topic to search on.
Essentially, my question is: how can I run commands such as composer install inside my package after it is globally required without the user having to do so manually?
Ok so I've now solved this - so, you know how you can run composer global require laravel/installer and immediately type laravel and you'll see some help text from the command? This is the same level of convenience I wanted to achieve with my package so I decided where better to look to see how it's done?
I was thinking about this incorrectly; I don't want a vendor directory inside my globally installed package and I shouldn't ever expect commands like composer install inside my package.
I was able to remove the two blocks from above. Inside my phpenv script, where I'm looking for the autoloader from within my package, I also added an additional check, so that this will use the autoloader at C:/Users/Danny/AppData/Roaming/Composer/vendor/autoload.php if it exists - this removes the need to run composer install (one step down):
if (file_exists(dirname(__DIR__, 3) . '/autoload.php')) {
require dirname(__DIR__, 3) . '/autoload.php';
} else {
require dirname(__DIR__, 1) . '/vendor/autoload.php';
}
Assuming you have your Composer bin directory added to your path (something like C:/Users/Danny/AppData/Roaming/Composer/bin), I was able to remove the need to add the path to this package specifically by making sure that the script to execute my commands was mapped to the above bin directory. I moved my phpenv script to a bin directory in my package and then added the following to my composer.json - this removes the need to add the path to the script directory to my environment variables path:
"bin": [
"bin/phpenv"
],

I know that this issue has been posted many times, but for me it seems to be a different problem.
Indeed, this error
Warning: require(vendor/autoload.php): failed to open stream: No such file or directory in C:\xampp\htdocs\site_web\send_mail.php on line 3
Fatal error: require(): Failed opening required 'vendor/autoload.php' (include_path='C:\xampp\php\PEAR') in C:\xampp\htdocs\site_web\send_mail.php on line 3
appears at the begining of my code from this line:
require 'vendor/autoload.php';
So, I guess there must be a /vendor/autoload.php file somewhere in my computer (I have installed composer and ran composer require phpmailer/phpmailer).
So, I looked for this file using: dir /s autoload.php in the Windows command line, and found one here: C:\Windows\SysWOW64\vendor\autoload.php,
but for me, syswow64 folder has nothing to see with autoload.php, I don't see what I am missing here.
What you're missing is running composer install, which will import your packages and create the vendor folder, along with the autoload script.
Make sure your relative path is correct. For example the example scripts in PHPMailer are in examples/, below the project root, so the correct relative path to load the composer autoloader from there would be ../vendor/autoload.php.
The autoload.php you found in C:\Windows\SysWOW64\vendor\autoload.php is probably a global composer installation – where you'll usually put things like phpcs, phpunit, phpmd etc.
composer update is not the same thing, and probably not what you want to use. If your code is tested with your current package versions then running update may cause breakages which may require further work and testing, so don't run update unless you have a specific reason to and understand exactly what it means. To clarify further – you should probably only ever run composer update locally, never on your server as it is reasonably likely to break apps in production.
I often see complaints that people can't use composer because they can't run it on their server (e.g. because it's shared and they have no shell access). In that case, you can still use composer: run it locally (an environment that has no such restrictions), and upload the local vendor folder it generates along with all your other PHP scripts.
Running composer update also performs a composer install, and if you do not currently have a vendor folder (normal if you have a fresh checkout of a project), then it will create one, and also overwrite any composer.lock file you already have, updating package versions tagged in it, and this is what is potentially dangerous.
Similarly, if you do not currently have a composer.lock file (e.g. if it was not committed to the project), then composer install also effectively performs a composer update. It's thus vital to understand the difference between the two as they are definitely not interchangeable.
It is also possible to update a single package by naming it, for example:
composer update ramsey/uuid
This will re-resolve the version specified in your composer.json and install it in your vendor folder, and update your composer.lock file to match. This is far less likely to cause problems than a general composer update if you just need a specific update to one package.
It is normal for libraries to not include a composer.lock file of their own; it's up to apps to fix versions, not the libraries they use. As a result, library developers are expected to maintain compatibility with a wider range of host environments than app developers need to. For example, a library might be compatible with Laravel 5, 6, 7, and 8, but an app using it might require Laravel 8 for other reasons.
Composer 2.0 removed any remaining inconsistencies between install and update results; if you're running composer 1.x you should definitely upgrade.
If you get the error also when you run
composer install
Just run this command first
composer dump-autoload
This command will clean up all compiled files and their paths.
#Bashir almost helped me but I needed:
composer update --no-scripts
Apparently this prevents any scripts from being included before executing artisan.
I found the answer here half-way down the page:
https://laracasts.com/discuss/channels/general-discussion/fatal-error-class-illuminatefoundationapplication-not-found-in-pathtoprojectbootstrapappphp-on-line-14?page=0
Proper autoload.php configuration:
A) Quick answer:
Your autoload.php path is wrong. ie. C:\Windows\SysWOW64\vendor\autoload.php
To date: you need to change it to: C:\Users\<Windows User Name>\vendor\autoload.php
B) Steps with example:
We will take facebook/php-graph-sdk as an example; change to Package Name as needed.
Install composer.exe
Open CMD Prompt. + R + type CMD
Run This command: composer require facebook/graph-sdk
Include path in your PHP page: require_once 'C:\Users\<Windows User Name>\vendor\autoload.php';
Define configuration Secrets and Access Token for your package...etc.
Happy codinig.
C) Further details:
Installing composer on windows will set this default path for your pacakges; you can find them there and include the autoloader path:
C:\Users\<Windows User Name>\vendor
For the same question you asked; the answer was this path for WAMP Server 64 BIT for Windows.
Then simply in your PHP Application change this:
require_once __DIR__ . '/vendor/autoload.php';
To:
require_once 'C:\Users\<Windows User Name>\vendor\autoload.php';
Find your windows username under C:\Users\
Before all this, as pointed before in B) , you need to run this command:
composer require <package name>
for facebook php SDK for example:
composer require facebook/graph-sdk
Thank you for asking this question; appreciated as it helped me fix similar issue and ended writing this simple tutorial.
First make sure you have installed the composer.
composer install
If you already have installed then update the composer.
composer update
If you have cloned your project from Github or got it from somewhere else, you will encounter this error. That's because you are missing the vendor folder and other files. The vendor folder contains packages which are dependent to your project. The package dependencies are stored in composer.json file and the folder was excluded while pushing to Github.
Fix this error by simply running:
composer install
Then you will get all the assets needed for your project.
First, review route inside index.php
require __DIR__.'/../vendor/autoload.php';
$app = require_once __DIR__.'/../bootstrap/app.php';
in my case the route did not work, I had to review the directories.
For me
Just run this command first
composer dump-autoload
to add vendor folder.
then run this command
composer update --no-scripts
to update composer.
Create composer.json file with requisite library for ex:
{
"require": {
"mpdf/mpdf": "^6.1"
}
}
Execute the below command where composer.json exists:
composer install
In case of Drupal :
Use the web root folder of drupal to include autoload for ex:
define('DRUPAL_ROOT', getcwd());
require_once DRUPAL_ROOT . '/vendor/autoload.php';
In case of other systems:
Use the root folder variable or location to include the autoload.php
I had this path in my machine:
C:/xampp5.0/htdocs/project-recordando-symfony/project-recordando-symfony
Then I ran composer install or/and composer update and it returned this error:
ErrorException ZipArchive::extractTo...
That error is because your path is too much long, I changed to:
C:/xampp5.0/htdocs/p-symfony/*
and worked!
run composer update. That's it
I was able to resolve by removing composer and reinstalling the proper way. Here is what I did:
sudo apt remove composer
sudo apt autoclean && sudo apt autoremove
Installed globally with the instructions from: https://getcomposer.org/doc/00-intro.md
Download from: https://getcomposer.org/installer
global install: mv composer.phar /usr/local/bin/composer
(Note: I had to move mine to mv composer.phar /usr/bin/composer)
I was then able to get composer install to work again. Found my answer at the bottom of this issue: https://github.com/composer/composer/issues/5510
In your project folder, the vendor folder is missing so you got this error:
Warning: require(vendor/autoload.php): failed to open stream: No such file or directory in
When you download the project through git, the project is downloaded without the vendor folder
You need /vendor because all your packages are there, including all the classes Laravel uses. The vendor directory contains your Composer dependencies.
The solution is simple, Just run this command:
composer update --no-scripts
composer update
composer update --no-scripts It will Skips execution of scripts defined in composer.json file.
composer update It will update your depencencies as they are specified in composer.json file.
With this command, you will re-create the vendor folder in your project and after that your project will start working normally.
This error occurs because of missing some files and the main reason is "Composer"
First Run these commands in CMD
php -r "copy('https://getcomposer.org/installer', 'composer-setup.php');"
php -r "if (hash_file('sha384', 'composer-setup.php') === 'e0012edf3e80b6978849f5eff0d4b4e4c79ff1609dd1e613307e16318854d24ae64f26d17af3ef0bf7cfb710ca74755a') { echo 'Installer verified'; } else { echo 'Installer corrupt'; unlink('composer-setup.php'); } echo PHP_EOL;"
php composer-setup.php
php -r "unlink('composer-setup.php');"
Then
Create a New project
Example:
D:/Laravel_Projects/New_Project
laravel new New_Project
After that start the server using
php artisan serve
In my case, It was due to the non-fully installation of the project, because I didn't have enough space on my hard disk
There will be a directory called "vendor" that needs to be in your root directory if you have a cloned repository and trying to set up that time this type of error occurring.
".gitingore" file has written code to not include vendor directory on GIT so after cloning GIT your project facing the issue of missing vendor directory.
Once you add vendor directory your project will start working again.
Change the auto_prepend_file property on php.ini
; Automatically add files before PHP document.
;http://php.net/auto-prepend-file
auto_prepend_file =
In linux first add github Personal access tokens
Navigate to GitHub's Personal Access Tokens page.
Hit "Generate new token" button.
Type something meaningful "Note", select "repo" as scope and hit "Generate token" button.
Take a note of the token.
5 type in terminal with you new "personal access token"
export COMPOSER_AUTH='{"github-oauth":{"github.com":"AB8cd4cab23a9d5399934a7d7698d3fa74e9cfAB"}}'
Run in terminal composer install
Via Terminal I installed the Ramsey/Uuid plugin:
composer require ramsey/uuid
In my PagesRepository.php I am creating this function:
use Ramsey\Uuid\Uuid;
function generateUid()
{
$uuid = Uuid::uuid4();
$uuid = $uuid->getHex();
$uuid = substr($uuid,0,10);
return $uuid;
}
I am using the function in my PagesController.php
$unique_id = PagesRepository::generateUid();
$entity->setUnique_id($unique_id);
It is working very fine on my local machine, but then I push it via git to my server and there I get the error message:
Attempted to load class "Uuid" from namespace "Ramsey\Uuid". Did you
forget a "use" statement for
"Symfony\Component\Validator\Constraints\Uuid"?
I cannot install anything on the server because it is a shared host and the permission is denied so I copied the ramsey folder into my vendor folder on the server. But this was not solving the problem.
I do not understand, why this is asking for the Symfony validator, as it does not need it on the local machine.
Its because of composer auto generated files not linking your folder or class (ramsey) .
So, as i understand you can not run composer update or composer install on shared hosting, you should upload whole updated vendor folder to your server.
Then auto generated files like vendor\composer\autoload_psr4.php will be updated and have link to class like Ramsey\Uuid\Uuid.
Point is
PHP Namespace can not include class/file automatically. It loads classes with composer's auto generated linking files and __auload magic function.
If you are not running composer install in your server, you need to copy the whole vendor folder, at least, to wherever you are running the system.
The package you have installed might have installed other dependencies, for example, but you are not copying them when transferring only the files for that package. And at the very least you'll need the generated autoloader files.
Since you creating the installation on dev and transferring it to production, I would advise delete your local vendor folder and re-do the whole installation first:
composer install --prefer-dist --no-dev --no-scripts --no-progress --no-suggest --classmap-authoritative --no-interaction
And transfer that vendor folder to production. You should make sure that the installation process doesn't include any other step (enabling bundles, creating configuration files, etc), but I'm hoping you took care of that at some point.
After yo do that, you can reset the previous steps, and do a regular composer install for development.
I know that this issue has been posted many times, but for me it seems to be a different problem.

I am trying to install fuelphp.
And getting the error as
Composer is not installed. Please run "php composer.phar update" in the root to install Composer
In my xampp/php directory I run a command
php -r "eval('?>'.file_get_contents('https://getcomposer.org/installer'));"
But once i run php composer.phar install composer could not find a composer.json in e:\xampp\php
How can i resolve and run fuelphp successfully can anyone help.
As of 1.7.1, we no longer supply the composer.phar file in the zip. It only has a limited shelf life (30 days before it starts complaining).
Instead we suggest you install composer yourself, either locally (specific for this fuelphp installation) or globally so you only have to install it once for all your projects.
Composer is a tool for dependency management in PHP, like npm for Node.js, bundler for ruby, and others.
It reads a file called composer.json with the dependent libraries your project needs and, finally, installs (downloads) them for you.
Fuelphp can be installed using composer, but there are several packages.
So, you need to create the composer.json with all needed fuelphp packages. Open notepad, save a file with the name composer.json (be sure to save it with ".json" extension) and put this content:
{
"require": {
"fuelphp/upload": "2.0.1",
"fuelphp/event": "0.2.1",
(...)
}
}
Note you need to insert at "(...)" the others fuelphp packages and the needed versions. You can check them all at https://packagist.org/ (type fuelphp at search). Packagist is the main Composer repository.
More information about Composer at this link.
Let me know if you need more information about it.
If you are running FuelPHP 1.7, the download comes with all Composer files you need. You need to run php composer.phar install in the root directory of FuelPHP (the same directory that contains the public folder and the fuel folder.
As long as you have v1.7 (I'm not sure if earlier versions contain the files), that directory will contain composer.json and composer.phar.
In folder fuelphp-1.7 (latest), there are two files: composer.phar and composer.json you need to cd into that folder and run:
php composer.phar install
If you don't have php in your path, you should do something like:
e:\xampp\bin\php\php5.4.16\php.exe composer.phar install
Use the full path to your php.exe. Remember your current working directory should be fuelphp folder where composer.phar and composer.json are.
I ran this command to install globally PHPUnit:
composer global require 'phpunit/phpunit=3.7.*'
Now I want to uninstall globally PHPUnit.
Any ideas?
To remove a globally installed package run:
composer global remove phpunit/phpunit
global command lets you to run many commands like install, require or update as if you were running them from the COMPOSER_HOME directory.
Read the related documentation here: http://getcomposer.org/doc/03-cli.md#global
COMPOSER_HOME depends on your system (on Linux it's ~/.composer), see http://getcomposer.org/doc/03-cli.md#composer-home for more details.
Also you can use another way
cd $HOME/.config/composer
And in composer.json file remove some require positions
After all execute composer update
This is a long way, but more clear
