Composer Tools and Frameworks for Drupal

Why you should care about composer
Today
➢ Dependency Management Hell
➢ Manually Include Classes at runtime
➢ Large unmanagable repository
➢ Composer manages dependencies
➢ Autoloader lazy-includes class files
➢ Repository remains clean and lean
With Composer

WHAT IS COMPOSER?
PART
ONE

What Is Composer?
An Installer A Dependency Manager An Autoloader
{
"require": {
"php": ">=5.4.0",
"symfony/browser-kit": "~2.1",
"symfony/css-selector": "~2.1",
"symfony/dom-crawler": "~2.1",
"guzzlehttp/guzzle": ">=4,<6"
},
…
}
Evaluate and select <?php
$client = new GuzzleHttpClient();
>=4,<6
guzzlehttp/guzzle
5.*
guzzlehttp/guzzle
v5.2.0
guzzlehttp/guzzle
"autoload": {
"psr-4": {
"GuzzleHttp": "src/"
}
},
composer.json

Why Use Composer?
‣Standard
‣Easiest for developers
•Dependency resolution
•Code updates
•Autoloading of classes
‣Composer is being adopted everywhere

Drupal 7 and Composer
Can we do this?

Composer Parts of the Whole
Composer
PHP
dependency
management
software.
Packagist
A software
repository
manager.
Custom Installer
An executable
Composer
component.
Optional.
autoload.php
A generated file
that must be
included
by your app.
composer.json
A structured file
that defines a
project.

Repository Data for Drupal Projects
packagist.drupal-composer.org
A third-party repository
containing data on projects
from drupal.org.

Semantic Versioning
Drupal Module Version
7.x-1.5
DRUPAL-x.MODULE.MINOR
Versions are converted to semantic versioning before being
published on packagist.drupal-composer.org.

Autoloading in PHP
"autoload": {
"psr-4": {
"GuzzleHttp": "src/"
}
},
composer.json from guzzlehttp/guzzle
autoload_psr4.php generated by Composer via composer install
$vendorDir = dirname(dirname(__FILE__));
return array(
'GuzzleHttp' => array($vendorDir .
'/guzzlehttp/guzzle/src'),
);
Saves one line of code per class - but it’s a very important line!
RUN TIME INSTALL TIME
<?php
include "vendor/autoload.php";
$client = new GuzzleHTTPClient();
php source file that calls GuzzleHTTP
$map = require __DIR__ . '/autoload_psr4.php';
foreach ($map as $namespace => $path) {
$loader->setPsr4($namespace, $path);
}
Composer autoloader registration called from vendor/autoload.php
include $vendorDir . '/guzzlehttp/guzzle/src/Client.php';

Custom Installers for Composer + D7
generalredneck/drupal-libraries-installer-plugin
promet/drupal-tangler
derhasi/composer-preserve-paths
davidbarratt/custom-installer
OR
OPTIONAL
netresearch/composer-patches-plugin
Allows composer.json files to specify where
components get installed.
Allows nested installation of composer libraries (e.
g. Drupal modules inside of
Drupal core).
Installs modules and themes to their standard
location in the vendor directory, and symlinks
to them from sites/all/modules/contrib or
copies them to sites/all/modules/contrib.
Allows composer.json files to specify where
components get installed.
Allows patch files to be applied to Drupal core
or contrib modules after Composer installs
them.

Adding Composer Support
To make this work, we just need to include vendor/autoload.php

INSTALLING DRUPAL 7 WITH
COMPOSER
PART
TWO

Searches for
composer.json files
in every module
and dynamically
merges them.
20
Composer Options for Drupal 7
composer_autoload composer_manager
Fragile Complex
Searches for
autoload.php files
in every module
directory and loads
them individually.

Writes a settings.php
file that loads the correct
autoload.php file.
Loads the
sites/all/vendor/au
toload.php
file.

Better Options for Drupal 7
composer_vendor promet/drupal-tangler
Wins! Wins!

Directory Structure
mydrupalsite.org
composer.json
composer.lock
htdocs
sites
default
settings.php
files
all
modules
We create a new top-level directory for our project,
because composer cannot manage dependencies in
the same directory as composer.json.
We will put our Drupal root directory in htdocs.
Tangler defaults to www but allows the option to
specify a different name.
With drupal-tangler

Directory Structure
mydrupalsite.org
vendor
drupal
views
composer
htdocs
sites
default
vendor -> ../../../vendor
all
modules
contrib
views -> ../../../../../vendor/drupal/views
We put the vendor directory in root because that
is the default location for the Composer installer.
The directory is organized by vendor name.
Each contributed module directory is symlinked
to the corresponding directory in vendor.
With drupal-tangler

Directory Structure
mydrupalsite.org
modules
custom
feature_modules
htdocs
sites
all
modules
custom -> ../../../../modules/custom
feature_modules ->
../../../../modules/feature_modules
We put custom modules in the custom directory
in the modules directory in root.
The feature_modules directory is symlinked to
the feature_modules directory in the modules
directory in root.
With drupal-tangler
Tangler defaults to www but allows the option to
specify a different name.
The custom directory is symlinked to the custom
directory in the modules directory in root.

Directory Structure

settings.php
We put default configuration for settings in
config.yml.dist.
We put default configuration for settings in
config.yml.dist.
The settings.php file is generated by
settings_compile from config.yml. If config.
yml does not exist, it is generated from config.
yml.dist.
With drupal-tangler

Use Installation Profiles
mydrupalsite.org
vendor
drupal
panopoly
htdocs
profiles
panopoly -> ../../vendor/drupal/panopoly
Composer downloads the profile to the drupal
directory in the vendor directory.
The panopoly directory is symlinked to the
panopoly directory in the vendor directory.

Directory Structure
mydrupalsite.org
composer.json
composer.lock
htdocs
sites
default
settings.php
files
all
modules
vendor
We create a new top-level directory for our project,
because composer cannot manage dependencies in
the same directory as composer.json.
We put the vendor directory in
sites/all/vendor because that is where the
composer_vendor project expects to find it.
With composer_vendor

Place the Vendor Directory
composer.json
{
"require": {
…
},
"config": {
"vendor-dir": "htdocs/sites/all/vendor"
},
…
}
For composer_vendor with a custom-installer

Place Modules and Themes
{
"require": {
…
},
"extra": {
"custom-installer": {
"drupal-module": "htdocs/sites/all/modules/contrib/{$name}/",
"drupal-theme": "htdocs/sites/all/themes/contrib/{$name}/"
},
},
…
}
composer.json

Use Installation Profiles
{
"require": {
"drupal/panopoly": "7.1.*",
…
},
"extra": {
"custom-installer": {
"drupal-profile": "htdocs/profiles/{$name}/"
},
},
…
}
composer_vendor
composer.json

Downloading Modules
$ drush dl devel
Project devel (7.x-1.5) downloaded to
sites/all/modules/contrib/devel.
Project devel contains 3 modules:
devel_generate, devel, devel_node_access.
$ composer require drupal/devel '7.*'
./composer.json has been updated
Loading composer repositories with package
information
Updating dependencies (including require-dev)
Drush Composer
Drush will select the right module major version, but composer require
must be told which version to use.
Composer require will update the composer.json file before
installing the module.

Install a Module from a Private Repository
{
"repositories": [
{
"type": "vcs",
"url": "https://github.com/your-org/your-module"
}
],
"require": {
"your-org/your-module": "dev-master"
},
…
} https://knpuniversity.com/screencast/question-answer-day/create-composer-package
composer.json
For composer_vendor and drupal-tangler

Add a Patch to a Module
{
"require": {
"netresearch/composer-patches-plugin": "~1.0"
},
"extra": {
"patches": {
"drupal/features": {
"7.2.2":[
{
"title": "Remove mtime from .info export (added by Drupal 7.33)",
"url": "https://www.drupal.org/files/issues/2381739-features-mtime.patch"
}
]
}
}
},
…
} http://cambrico.net/drupal/using-composer-to-build-your-drupal-7-projects
composer.json
For composer_vendor and drupal-tangler

Use a Composer Library from a Module
1.Add a composer.json and require the library
2.There is no step two!
VERY IMPORTANT - Never try to include an autoload.php file from a
plug-in; always leave autoloader management to the application.

Use Composer from a Drush Command
1.Add a composer.json and require the library
2.Call drush_autoload(__FILE__) from your
hook_drush_init().
3.Require your Drush command in the composer.json of the Drupal
site it is used in.

Tangler works
the same

Updating a Site
$ drush pm-update $ composer update
$ drush updatedb
Composer
Remember - regardless of how you update your site, always
do it on a copy first. Never update directly on the
production site!
