The README.md

This is a demonstration package of how one can use composer for building and distributing Javascript packages. The implementation demo is here., _(*1)

Installation / Usage

In order to use this packages, one will need to use composer require/install the package as usual:, _(*2)

composer require programster/js-demo-welcomer

However, yout then probably want to add the following scripts section to your composer.json file in order to have the package automatically install the source code to the public_html/js folder. Obviously if you want the sourceelsewhere, you would just update the paths accordingly., _(*3)

One has to manually add the scripts section themselves because the scripts of the packages themselves are not automatically executed (probably for security). Only the scripts in the root composer.json file are executed., _(*4)

{
    "require": {
        "programster/js-demo-welcomer": "0.1.*"
    },
    "scripts": {
        "post-install-cmd": [
            "rm -f public_html/js/js-demo-welcomer && ln -s ../../vendor/programster/js-demo-welcomer/src public_html/js/js-demo-welcomer"
        ],
        "post-update-cmd": [
            "rm -f public_html/js/js-demo-welcomer && ln -s ../../vendor/programster/js-demo-welcomer/src public_html/js/js-demo-welcomer"
        ]
    }
}

For this package, a full example composer.json file would be as follows:, _(*5)

{
    "require": {
        "programster/js-demo-welcomer": "0.1.*"
    },
    "scripts": {
        "post-install-cmd": [
            "rm -f public_html/js/js-demo-welcomer && ln -s ../../vendor/programster/js-demo-welcomer/src public_html/js/js-demo-welcomer"
        ],
        "post-update-cmd": [
            "rm -f public_html/js/js-demo-welcomer && ln -s ../../vendor/programster/js-demo-welcomer/src public_html/js/js-demo-welcomer"
        ]
    }
}

Then you would use this package like so in your source code:, _(*6)

...
<body>
<script src="js/js-demo-welcomer/Welcomer.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript">
    var welcomer = new Welcomer("James");
    welcomer.run();
</script>
