Now that everyone is super comfortable with composer, I thought I’d share these two gems which I didn’t know or think about.<\/p>\n
composer info<\/strong><\/p>\n This command lists all of your packages installed with composer. \u00a0This is super handy if you want to include a page in your project, listing all the libraries and versions which are currently installed. \u00a0It also gives you a description of each library as provided by the package.<\/p>\n composer outdated<\/strong><\/p>\n This command lists packages which you are using, which have updates available. \u00a0With this you can have a better understanding of what will happen if you run composer update (depending on your composer.json<\/em> of course).<\/p>\n Update (July 21, 2016)<\/strong>: Guess what? There is even a way to combine the two with one command: composer info -l\u00a0<\/strong>. \u00a0This will list all the packages, with their versions and descriptions, and with an additional column of the latest version for each package.<\/p>\n\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"\n Now that everyone is super comfortable with composer, I thought I’d share these two gems which I didn’t know or think about. composer info This command lists all of your packages installed with composer. \u00a0This is super handy if you want to include a page in your project, listing all the libraries and versions which … Continue reading Composer magic<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_monsterinsights_skip_tracking":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_active":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_note":"","_monsterinsights_sitenote_category":0,"_jetpack_newsletter_access":"","_jetpack_dont_email_post_to_subs":true,"_jetpack_newsletter_tier_id":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paywalled_content":false,"_jetpack_feature_clip_id":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":"","jetpack_publicize_message":"Composer magic #PHP #WebDev","jetpack_publicize_feature_enabled":true,"jetpack_social_post_already_shared":true,"jetpack_social_options":{"image_generator_settings":{"template":"highway","default_image_id":0,"font":"","enabled":false},"version":2},"jetpack_post_was_ever_published":false,"_links_to":"","_links_to_target":""},"categories":[1,18,62,1334],"tags":[3489,38,1330],"keyring_services":[],"class_list":["post-26265","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-general","category-programming","category-technology","category-web-work","tag-composer","tag-php","tag-web-development"],"aioseo_notices":[],"aioseo_head":"\n\t\t\n\t\n\t\n\t\n\t\n\t\n\t\n\t\t\n\t\t\n\t\t\n\t\t\n\t\t\n\t\t\n\t\t\n\t\t\n\t\t\n\t\t\n\t\t\n\t\t\n\t\t\n\t\t\n\t\t\n\t\t\n\t\t\n\t\t\n\t\t\n\t\t
