Parameters | Details |
---|---|
repositories | Tells Composer where it can download the required packages. |
type: vcs | Tells Composer how to treat the repository. |
url: http://... | Tells Composer where is the repository. |
Use the type: "vcs"
syntax to use private repositories.
To manage access to the private repository while developing on a local machine, use an auth.json
file and don't commit it in you project repository. Instead, give access to each single developer to the private repository so, using each one his/her own NOT COMMITTED auth.json
file, they can fetch the remote repository with composer install
or composer update
.
Tip: Put the auth.json
file in the .gitignore
file of your git
repository.
If you are using a continuous integration system, use the COMPOSER_AUTH
environment variable.
