Usage example about composer-patches-plugin HOT 5 CLOSED

Have a look at the typo3/ folder.

I'll just update the tests and provide some examples shortly...

Thanks for the quick replies.

I see that the typo3/cms.json file seems to have some really neat patch handling for typo3 but I am still unsure about how to apply it to something like Drupal which does not have the same setup regarding patches and issues.

I found very few direct references in the source code to the keys used in these files e.g. patch-url. I guess that makes it difficult to grasp as well.

Your presentation showed that I was on the right track by looking into this project, but the most important slide was not very helpful to me.

For starters my use case it just to to apply a patch located at an URL to a package.

I digged around some more and through a few additions arrived at something that makes sense for me (see #3). Whether that is a sound change in respect to the thoughts behind the plugin is up to you.

Ok, thanks for your interest in this project. What the presentation misses, are the sources for the composer.json files - i just updated the README with an example.

As I wanted to update the unit tests I just remembered that there was a major change in the operation mode of this plugin: First it was considered to deliver the patches for TYPO3 itself but later it was changed to "only" do the patching process for other packages, so that basically any package could patch any other package (and even itself). However the presentation was based on that latter version as well the README is now too. Updating the unit tests unfortunately is a little bit to complex for my current lack of time for that project - that's why I removed them for now.

Great job!

Thanks for the elaboration.
