如何在Symfony 2.1中的composer.json中提供第三方库并在我们的包中访问库？

Question

I need to integrate TCPDF as third party library in Symfony 2.1.

I tried in composer.json like

"repositories": [
    {
        "type": "vcs",
        "url": "git://tcpdf.git.sourceforge.net/gitroot/tcpdf/tcpdf"
    }
],
"require": {
    "tcpdf/tcpdf":"*"
},

But it gives an error The requested package tcpdf * could not be found.

How to give third party libraries correct in composer.json file?

TCPDF library don't follow namespaces, so how we can access this library in our bundle?

Answer 1

The reason it's not found is that the package name in the tcpdf repo is tecnick.com/tcpdf , so that's what you should require.

That said, since it's available on packagist you don't need to add the vcs repository at all in your composer.json.

Answer 2

在Packagist上有几个与TCPDF相关的软件包 - 其中一些是与Symfony集成的软件包。

Answer 3

Since tcpdf does not support composer you need to use the package repository. The docs for this is available at:

http://getcomposer.org/doc/05-repositories.md#package-2

Do note that their example configuration has both dist and source where source is what you need. You will probably also need to configure the autoloading to match that of tcpdf. You can find documentation on that on the composer website as well.

A good thing would also be to send the tcpdf authors an email and ask them if they don't mind adding a composer.json.
