Flex: Recipes not applied

Created on 18 May 2017  ·  9Comments  ·  Source: symfony/flex

When I clone symfony/skeleton and run composer install myself, it doesn't seem to produce the same result as if I'd run composer create-project symfony/skeleton:3.3.x-dev demo. Indeed, symfony/flex doesn't seem to work if you don't run create-project.

When I create my own skeleton and run composer install

Here, flex recipes have been applied.

The reason is that the 3.4 branch has been created yesterday (meaning that 3.4.x-dev now is a valid version constraint) and there are no recipes for 3.4 yet (see symfony/recipes#69 for the fix).

@xabbuh I don't think the issue is related to what you mentioned.

Here is a composer.json you can try. It only requires symfony/flex.

{
    "type": "project",
    "minimum-stability": "dev",
    "require": {
        "php": "^7.1",
        "symfony/flex": "^1.0"
    },
    "require-dev": {
        "symfony/dotenv": "^3.3"
    },
    "config": {
        "platform": {
            "php": "7.1"
        },
        "preferred-install": {
            "*": "dist"
        },
        "sort-packages": true
    },
    "autoload": {
        "psr-4": {
            "App\\": "src/"
        }
    },
    "autoload-dev": {
        "psr-4": {
            "App\\Tests\\": "tests/"
        }
    },
    "scripts": {
        "auto-scripts": [
        ],
        "post-install-cmd": [
            "@auto-scripts"
        ],
        "post-update-cmd": [
            "@auto-scripts"
        ]
    },
    "extra": {
        "symfony": {
            "id": "",
            "allow-contrib": false
        }
    }
}

Try to copy it and run composer install then remove everything except composer.json and run composer create-project.

Here is the difference:

As you can see with composer install the flex scripts are not triggered at all.

lucascourot picture lucascourot on 18 May 2017

Ok, I think in the case you manually run composer install, composer doesn't install the symfony/flex plugin before the other dependencies, as it does when running composer create-project. That's why the symfony/flex recipe cannot be applied with composer install. Any idea why create-project has such a different behaviour when installing dependencies?

The doc says though https://getcomposer.org/doc/03-cli.md#create-project :

This is the equivalent of doing a git clone/svn checkout followed by a "composer install" of the vendors.

Here are the steps I finally followed to make flex work from a custom composer.json file (I needed to do so to avoid this issue https://github.com/symfony/recipes/pull/69):

{
    "type": "project",
    "minimum-stability": "dev",
    "require": {
        "php": "^7.1",
        "symfony/flex": "^1.0@dev"
    },
    "config": {
        "platform": {
            "php": "7.1"
        },
        "preferred-install": {
            "*": "dist"
        },
        "sort-packages": true
    },
    "autoload": {
        "psr-4": {
            "App\\": "src/"
        }
    },
    "autoload-dev": {
        "psr-4": {
            "App\\Tests\\": "tests/"
        }
    },
    "scripts": {
        "auto-scripts": [],
        "post-install-cmd": [
            "@auto-scripts"
        ],
        "post-update-cmd": [
            "@auto-scripts"
        ]
    },
    "extra": {
        "symfony": {
            "id": "",
            "allow-contrib": false
        }
    }
}

the fact that the plugin is not applied in this case looks like a bug (either in flex or in composer)

Will be fixed soon, see symfony/recipes#70

I still have the same issue.

I also installed symfony/console package:

$ composer req cli

and all the recipes worked, all directories were created

    └── symfony

and then I committed this project to git repository using the default .gitignore file (which was created by composer and recipes) (composer.lock file was also committed). And now, when I clone this repo and run composer install command a recipes are no longer executed and directories are not created, scripts in the bin folder are not created

It looks like the flex plugin was not triggered.
After some attempts, I discovered that recipes are only triggered when I delete composer.lock file.

Flex recipes are only triggered when the package is newly installed (or is getting removed). So you need to commit the bin/console and config/bundles.php files in your version control.
