Composer for WordPress

A plugin for Composer package manager making it working a bit better within WordPress plugins.

For now, the only purpose of the project is to fix the following error when there is a WordPress plugin built with an obsolete pre-PSR-4 Composer version:

Fatal error: Call to undefined method Composer\Autoload\ClassLoader::setPsr4()
in <...>/wp-content/plugins/<plugin-name>/vendor/composer/autoload_real.php on line 33

The plugin patches Composer's autoload scripts every time they are changed due to composer install, composer update or other Composer actions.

Installation

Just require the package in your project's composer.json:

"require-dev": {
    "dangoodman/composer-for-wordpress": "^1.0"
}

You can set the class loader suffix in composer.json:

"classloader-suffix": "MySuffix"

If you don't do that, a random suffix will be generated.
