Composer Local Source Repository

The goal of this plugin is to have non-published (local) repository packages, inside our main project. And have them installed/mapped on the same source dir, without having to rely on symbolic links, full package copies to secondary directories or the vendor directory.

Requirements

• composer-plugin-api: ^1.1
• composer/installers: ^1.0

Example composer.json File

This is an example for a custom drupal-module package. The only important part to set in your composer.json are:

• Add the local repositories to your package.
• Set your extra files paths for composer/installers wich tells composer where to map the local packages. For more info look Composer installers.
• Set the dependency isaactorresmichel/composer-local-source-repository": "^1.0@alpha" on your main composer.json and source packages (the packages to install).
