README

This project provides a composer plugin for normalizing composer.json.

Why

When it comes to formatting composer.json, you have the following options:

• you can format it manually (and request changes when contributors format it differently)
• you can stop caring
• or you can use ergebnis/composer-normalize

ergebnis/composer-normalize normalizes composer.json, so you don't have to.

💡 If you want to find out more, take a look at the examples and read this blog post.

Installation

Composer

Run

composer require --dev ergebnis/composer-normalize

to install ergebnis/composer-normalize as a composer plugin.

Run

composer config allow-plugins.ergebnis/composer-normalize true

to allow ergebnis/composer-normalize to run as a composer plugin.

💡 The allow-plugins has been added to composer/composer to add an extra layer of security.

For reference, see

• composer/composer#10314
• https://getcomposer.org/doc/06-config.md#allow-plugins

Phar

Head over to http://github.com/ergebnis/composer-normalize/releases/latest and download the latest composer-normalize.phar.

Run

chmod +x composer-normalize.phar

to make the downloaded composer-normalize.phar executable.

Phive

Run

phive install ergebnis/composer-normalize

to install ergebnis/composer-normalize with PHIVE.

Usage

Composer

Run

composer normalize

to normalize composer.json in the working directory.

Phar

Run

./composer-normalize.phar

to normalize composer.json in the working directory.

Phive

Run

./tools/composer-normalize

to normalize composer.json in the working directory.

Details

The NormalizeCommand provided by the NormalizePlugin within this package will

• determine whether a composer.json exists
• determine whether a composer.lock exists, and if so, whether it is up to date (unless the --no-check-lock option is used)
• use Ergebnis\Json\Normalizer\Vendor\Composer\ComposerJsonNormalizer to normalize the content of composer.json
• format the normalized content (either as sniffed, or as specified using the --indent-size and --indent-style options)
• write the normalized and formatted content of composer.json back to the file
• update the hash in composer.lock if it exists and if an update is necessary

Arguments

• file: Path to composer.json file (optional, defaults to composer.json in working directory)

Options

• --diff: Show the results of normalizing
• --dry-run: Show the results of normalizing, but do not modify any files
• --indent-size: Indent size (an integer greater than 0); should be used with the --indent-style option
• --indent-style: Indent style (one of "space", "tab"); should be used with the --indent-size option
• --no-check-lock: Do not check if lock file is up to date
• --no-update-lock: Do not update lock file if it exists

As an alternative to specifying the --indent-size and --indent-style options, you can also use composer extra to configure these options in composer.json:

{
  "extra": {
    "composer-normalize": {
      "indent-size": 2,
      "indent-style": "space"
    }
  }
}

💡 The configuration provided in composer extra always overrides the configuration provided via command line options.

Continuous Integration

If you want to run this in continuous integration services, use the --dry-run option.

composer normalize --dry-run

In case composer.json is not normalized (or composer.lock is not up-to-date), the command will fail with an exit code of 1 and show a diff.
