Help:
 Create a Phar file of a composer project.
 The command can get values from CLI argument, by reading composer file or by ask (in this order)
 If an option is both defined in the composer file and in the CLI argument, the CLI argument will be used.
 Example of a composer configuration:

   ┌
   │  ... The content of your composer.json file
   │  "extra": {
   │      "phar-builder": {
   │          "compression": "GZip",
   │          "name": "application.phar",
   │          "output-dir": "../",
   │          "entry-point": "./index.php",
   │          "include": ["bin","js","css"],
   │          "include-dev": false
   │      }
   │  }
   └

Command build

The command build doesn't take any argument. All options will be ask through the CLI

Important

The only way to add none source code and none vendors files is to use include option of the package command
