Docksal: Cannot change composer version

[mdyoung3]

Description

Ever since upgrading to the latest version of Docksal, all my new projects are defaulting to composer 2. Most everything I work on has composer 1 as a requirement still.

Setting your composer version back to version 1, using the instructions laid out in the (documentation on setting your composer to version 1)[https://docs.docksal.io/service/cli/settings/#composer]. doesn't work for me.

A workaround I've discovered: you can also set your php version as well, it will then sometimes revert the composer 1. Operative word: sometimes.

Note: is it possible to set the default to composer 1? I added the composer 1 setting the global dockals.env file, located ~/.docksal

Steps to reproduce the issue:

1. fin update
2. fin composer --version
   Output: Composer version 2.0.6 2020-11-07 11:21:17
3. fin config set COMPOSER_DEFAULT_VERSION=1
4. fin project reset cli
5. fin composer --version
   Output: Composer version 2.0.6 2020-11-07 11:21:17

Hi @mdyoung3 we are just waiting for this PR to get finished up and reviewed and it will be added as a standard.

For the time being what you could do is in your projects .docksal/docksal.yml

If you add the following:

services:
  cli:
    environment:
      - COMPOSER_DEFAULT_VERSION

Run fin restart cli it should work.

@sean-e-dietrich Thanks for the tip. I'll give it a shot the next time I update (I rolled back to v1.14.1).

[lmakarov]

This has been address in the 1.15.1 release.
