composer-custom-directory-installer
A composer plugin, to install differenty types of composer packages in custom directories outside the default composer default installation path which is in the vendor folder.
Usage
First, you need to add it to your repositories section
{
"repositories": [
{
"type": "vcs",
"url": "git@github.com:mnsami/composer-custom-directory-installer.git"
}
]
}Second, add it to your require section, here I'm taking the famous monolog composer pacakge to install
{
"require":{
"php": ">=5.3",
"mnsami/composer-custom-directory-installer": "1.0.*",
"monolog/monolog": "*"
}
}Third, to instruct the plugin to install the monolog package in a custom directory, use the extra arbitrary
{
"extra":{
"installer-paths":{
"./monolog/": ["monolog/monolog"]
}
}
}Putting it in the same like above, it will instruct composer to install monolog in monolog folder inside the directory composer install is ran from.
