About

This custom Composer installer handles packages with the type attribute set to "contao-component" and installs them into a separate directory.

Usage

To create a Contao component, add the following to your composer.json:

{
 "name": "vendor/name",
 "type": "contao-component",
 "license": "LGPL-3.0-or-later",
 "require": {
 "contao-components/installer": "^1.0"
 }
}

Components directory

Note that the components will only be installed if you specify an components directory in the composer.json file of your project:

{
 "extra": {
 "contao-component-dir": "assets"
 }
}
