Answer 1

Install Composer Globally

1. install composer.phar into the PHP folder (where php.exe lives)
2. set the PHP folder on Environment path
3. execute on the windows command line: php composer.phar
   • composer should show up and now you know its available
   • what you now have is a " composer global installation on windows"

Setup application and define it's dependencies (manually)

1. create application folder, for your upcoming application which uses restler
2. add a composer.json file, this file describes all the packages your application uses
   • one of these packages is RESTLER, add it in the require setion
3. now execute php composer.phar install to install these dependencies
4. then inspect the folder /vendor to find restler
5. to use it in your application, simply require the composer autoloader
   • require APP_DIR . '/vendor/autoload.php';

Basic composer.json

{ "name":"developer/application", "require": { "luracast/restler": "*" } }

This is the easiest way to install it:

php.exe composer.phar create-project luacrest/restler targetFolder
