Require shopware 6 plugin via composer
Following up on this question and answer. I wondered what else anyone has added to install a plugin into custom/plugin for Shopware 6? I removed my composer.lock and the vendor and var/cache directories. I and trying to do the same thing, and I have required composer/installers to my plugin composer.json file and added:
"extra": {
"installer-paths": {
"custom/plugins": ["type:shopware-platform-plugin"]
}
}
to the root composer.json but it is still putting my plugin into the vendor directory. Any suggestions would be truly appreciated.
You don't need any installers or other tools for installing plugins via composer.
If you have placed your plugin in custom/plugins (in case you are using the development template) or in custom/static-plugins (in case you are using the production template/zip installation) your plugin will be symlinked to your root vendor directory, if you composer require your plugin.
For Shopware 6 it doesn't matter where your plugin is located.
If you don't like the behaviour, that your plugins are symlinked, you can simply remove the repository configuration from the root composer.json. Above I have linked the positions you need to change.

I am trying to install a JWT Library (i.e https://github.com/web-token/jwt-framework) in Prestashop,
I am not sure how to install & use it.
Do i need to run composer require web-token/jwt-framework in PS root to install it?
Composer is installed by default in prestashop versions 1.7+.
If you are starting a new project you can init your composer project along with the dependency:
composer init --require="web-token/jwt-framework" -n
composer install
Or if you already have an existing project simply add the dependency:
composer require web-token/jwt-framework
Then update your composer.json file to include the class in your autoload nad regenerate it:
composer dump-autoload
(Installing webservice library if u want to see documentation example: LINK)
If u want to use library in your module here is the link to documentation on how to do it: LINK
Although you can go to github repo of this library and download it manually.
When I go to Plugin Gallery and click on "install quicksubmit plugin", I get a message saying that The loaded plugin file does not contain a folder that matches the plugin name. Where do I save this folder?
I found an explanation on PKP Help that said:
Most plugins should come with a readme file of some sort, and should also list which versions of OJS they are compatible with. To install a plugin, you should simply need to copy the files to the correct plugins subdirectory in your OJS installation. For example, if the plugin you want to install is considered a 'generic' plugin, copy the plugin folder to plugins/generic/; if it is classed as an import plugin, it should go into plugins/importexport; and so on.
But where can I find this plugins/generic/ or plugins/importexport folders?
This error is usually when you trying to direct install latest plugin into previous version of ojs please follow bellow steps to easily install this plugin.
Download the exact released version for your ojs from
https://github.com/pkp/quickSubmit .
Example if you are running ojs 3.2.0 then download the relevant zip
upload this zip file and extract to your ojs/plugins/importexport directory
after extraction login to dashboard and check in tool->import/export plugin will be installed
I have NopCommerce source code and I cannot see any payment methods which used to come default with nopcommerce. It says download from Marketplace but I cant find PayPal Standard plugin on the marketplace
In the root plugin folder I can see the plugin Nop.Plugin.Payments.PayPalStandard which has some files. I believe this is a source code of the plugin. Then I can also see an empty folder of Payments.PayPalStandard
I can see the plugin in action on the demo nopcommerce site so I believe it is still relevant and available.
Am I missing something? Where can I find the plugin and how can I install it on my application
Please download no source code from github.
Refer this link for download deployed code.
It's not possible that any payment plugin not there into plugin folder.
So please dowload from given link and check there are many payment plugins inbuilt.
Currently I have downoad nopCommerce_4.20_NoSource_SelfContained.rar and checked Payments.PayPalStandard is there.
Docs:
\Plugins is a Visual Studio solution folder that contains plugin projects. Physically it's located in the root of your solution. But plugins DLLs are automatically copied in \Presentation\Nop.Web\Plugins\ directory which is used for already deployed plugins because the build output paths of all plugins are set to ..\..\Presentation\Nop.Web\Plugins\{Group}.{Name}\. This allows plugins to contain some external files, such as static content (CSS or JS files) without having to copy files between projects to be able to run the project.
You need to build the project Nop.Plugin.Payments.PayPalStandard, to publish the binary files in the output directory of \Presentation\Nop.Web project. Then run the project and complete the installation process of the plug-in in the administrative panel.
I am trying to install the latest version of Zend Framework 2 with composer and also install at least one other package at the same time. The other package is another Zend Framework package. The two packages are:
zendframework/zendframework
zendframework/zendservice-twitter
I added zendframework/zendservice-twitter to the require section of that file. It doesn't look like there is any other section to use to install multiple packages in the same directory tree. But when I try to add zendframework/zendservice-twitter to the require section of the composer.json file, it tells me that zendframework/zend-uri is required. But zendframework/zend-uri is installed by the zendframework/zendframework package. It is listed in the replace section of that composer.json file. So apparently the replace section is not the place to add other packages that need to be installed. But you can't have multiple composer.json files in the same directory either, so is it even possible to install Zend Framework 2 and ZendServiceTwitter in the same installation with composer?
When I download a package as a zip file from https://packages.zendframework.com/#composer, I get a composer.json file in the zip file, but it does not have the same repository setting that it says to use at https://packages.zendframework.com. So I am not sure if that composer.json file is intended to be edited in order to upgrade or reinstall.
Isn't there some way to tell composer that this is a circular dependency?
I don't see the circular dependency. The twitter package requires zend-uri, and zend-uri is provided by the main Zend Framework package that you've already installed.
I just tried this out on a fresh checkout of the skeleton app and it worked fine. All I did was add the twitter package to the require section of my composer.json:
"require": {
"php": ">=5.3.3",
"zendframework/zendframework": "2.3.*",
"zendframework/zendservice-twitter": "~2.1.0"
}
(2.1.0 is the latest version of it at the moment.) You don't need to touch the replace section.
I am trying to add a plugin named Redmine Scrumbler to Redmine. So far I have created a folder named "plugins" in the root folder where Redmine is installed and I've cloned the plugin from this repository Redmine Scrumbler to that folder.
Now this says that if the plugin requires migration I have to migrate it. Now how do I know if the plugin requires migration or not? Also what exactly does plugin migration mean in Redmine?
Also I didn't see "plugins" folder in the root folder where Redmine is installed. Does that folder need to be created or not? (The version of Redmine is 2.4.1)
Now how do I know if the plugin requires migration or not?
Check plugin folder plugin_root/db/migrate. If the folder exists and have some migrations (files) then plugin requires to run migration. Mentioned plugin requires migration (https://github.com/256MbTeam/Redmine-Scrumbler/tree/master/db/migrate)
Also what exactly does plugin migration mean in redmine?
The plugin will update the DB structure. Plugins usually create some additional tables/columns.
Also I didn't see "plugins" folder in the root folder where Redmine is installed. Does that folder need to be created or not? (The version of Redmine is 2.4.1)
Yes. The folder should be created.
PS mentioned plugin's last update time was two years ago. It looks like the plugin is not supported any more.
Redmine Scrumbler isn't officially supported on versions >2.x. You shouldn't trust it.
