# What is Composer?
Composer is a tool for dependency management in PHP, written in PHP. It allows you to declare the libraries your project depends on and it will manage (install/update) them for you.
You can read more about Composer in our [official documentation](https://getcomposer.org/doc/).

# Using
Run the `composer` image:
```sh
docker run --rm --interactive --tty \
--volume $PWD:/app \
composer install
```
You can mount the Composer home directory from your host inside the Container to share caching and configuration files:
```sh
docker run --rm --interactive --tty \
--volume $PWD:/app \
--volume $COMPOSER_HOME:/tmp \
composer install
```
By default, Composer runs as root inside the container. This can lead to permission issues on your host filesystem. You can run Composer as your local user:
```sh
docker run --rm --interactive --tty \
--volume $PWD:/app \
--user $(id -u):$(id -g) \
composer install
```
When you need to access private repositories, you will either need to share your configured credentials, or mount your `ssh-agent` socket inside the running container:
```sh
docker run --rm --interactive --tty \
--volume $PWD:/app \
--volume $SSH_AUTH_SOCK:/ssh-auth.sock \
--env SSH_AUTH_SOCK=/ssh-auth.sock \
composer install
```
When combining the use of private repositories with running Composer as another (local) user, you might run into non-existant user errors. To work around this, simply mount the host passwd and group files (read-only) into the container:
```sh
docker run --rm --interactive --tty \
--volume $PWD:/app \
--volume $SSH_AUTH_SOCK:/ssh-auth.sock \
--volume /etc/passwd:/etc/passwd:ro \
--volume /etc/group:/etc/group:ro \
--user $(id -u):$(id -g) \
--env SSH_AUTH_SOCK=/ssh-auth.sock \
composer install
```
## Suggestions
### PHP Extensions
We aim to deliver an image that is as lean as possible, built for running Composer only.
Sometimes dependencies or Composer [scripts](https://getcomposer.org/doc/articles/scripts.md) require the availability of certain PHP extensions. In this scenario, you have two options:
- Pass the `--ignore-platform-reqs` and `--no-scripts` flags to `install` or `update`:
```sh
docker run --rm --interactive --tty \
--volume $PWD:/app \
composer install --ignore-platform-reqs --no-scripts
```
- Create your own image (possibly by extending `FROM composer`).
### Local runtime/binary
If you want to be able to run `composer` as if it was installed on your host locally, you can define the following function in your `~/.bashrc`, `~/.zshrc` or similar:
```sh
composer () {
tty=
tty -s && tty=--tty
docker run \
$tty \
--interactive \
--rm \
--user $(id -u):$(id -g) \
--volume /etc/passwd:/etc/passwd:ro \
--volume /etc/group:/etc/group:ro \
--volume $(pwd):/app \
composer "$@"
}
```
