Package Support
Package Support provides an automated way of checking versions of the project dependencies and displays warnings/errors
based on its configuration. Unlike other commands like composer outdated you are getting detailed information about the
end of life, security support and deprecations of the current version of your package dependencies.
Package Support is not used to detect the new versions of your dependencies.
Requirements
PHP needs to be a minimum version of PHP 5.3.9.
Installation
Locally (Manual)
Download the package-support.phar file and store it somewhere on your computer.
Locally (Composer)
composer require --dev falnyr/package-support
Globally
To install Package Support, install Composer and issue the following command:
composer global require falnyr/package-support
Then make sure you have the global Composer binaries directory in your PATH. This directory is platform-dependent, see Composer documentation for details. Example for some Unix systems:
export PATH="$PATH:$HOME/.composer/vendor/bin"
Usage
package-support check -p 5 -s --no-dev composer.lock
