tag it please, not just alias branched about php-github-api HOT 8 CLOSED

@stof why do you think this is not working at all?

from php-github-api.

I've tried to reproduce it, but I think it works fine for me. This is what I've run:

git clone https://github.com/cordoval/gush
cd gush
composer update

And this is what composer has installed:

  - Installing knplabs/github-api (dev-master 13cac64)
    Cloning 13cac64bfd92daf99c5b5b3c4c11471d5fed5d68

Have you tried clearing composer's cache at ~/.composer/cache/. I've sometimes solved weird issues by doing that.

from php-github-api.

the command is

composer global require 'cordoval/gush=dev-master'

thanks for your time @adanlobato

Hey! I think I've found your problem, try the following:

composer global require 'cordoval/gush=dev-master' 'knplabs/github-api=@dev'

Probably it's going to work fine now. The problem is that when you run composer global require it is the same as running composer require on ~/.composer/. So when you require packages globally you're appending them to your ~/.composer/composer.json file, which acts as a normal project composer.json.

In other words, the result of running your command would be your global composer.json being as follows:

{
    "require": {
        "cordoval/gush": "dev-master"
    }
}

As you probably know, default minimum-stability in composer is stable, but your project relies on an unstable third-party package: knplabs/github-api. This means that you have two options:

The first one is switching minimum-stability globally to dev (we can add prefer-stable: true also). With this we will 'see' all available packages in all stabilities but only the most stable that match our requirements will be installed.

{
    "require": {
        "cordoval/gush": "dev-master"
    },
    "minimum-stability": "dev",
    "prefer-stable": true
}

The other option is enabling the dev channel only for our desired package, which results in:

{
    "require": {
        "cordoval/gush": "dev-master"
        "knplabs/github-api": "@dev"
    }
}

The command I gave you does this last option.

Summarizing, the problem is that packages are globally installed as dependencies, not root projects; so the problem is that the minimum-stability flag you've set in your project is not being propagated.

Hope this helps! :D

oh no no no no, this is not the solution, I already tried this all night and it is not the solution. If you check your @dev will give you 1.2.0 and not 1.3.x-dev which is the needed thing. I think at this point the only solution is to have @cursedcoder to actually tag semver properly since some bugs were fixed. Not sure why this is not done regularly.

it worked with composer global require 'cordoval/gush=dev-master' 'knplabs/github-api=@dev' but shows still the need for tagging bug fixes.

from php-github-api.

@cordoval check 1.2.1
