Install Extensions From the Flarum Root

DonaldLouch

Hey,

Possible stupid question but, I was wondering how you install extensions from the Flarum root?

datitisev

DonaldLouch You need to use composer.
Something like this:

composer require sijad/flarum-ext-links

It should say the exact command on the extension discussion.

DonaldLouch

datitisev, when I do that I get:

 [InvalidArgumentException]                                                                                                                              

  Could not find package sijad/flarum-ext-links at any version for your minimum-stability (stable). Check the package spelling or your minimum-stability

DonaldLouch Please post your composer.json.

DonaldLouch

Or if I say use:

php composer.phar require santiagobiali/flarum-ext-logo

I get:

Hmm. Can you post the contents of php flarum info please?

DonaldLouch

jordanjay29: Question, is that a command line or file?

If it's a command line, I get the following error:

Could not open input file: flarum

jordanjay29

Then there's something wrong with your flarum install. php flarum should be a working command in your flarum root if installed.

Is this a working install? Is it on the web (if so, could you share the address)? Is this on localhost (if so, what is your OS)?

DonaldLouch

jordanjay29: It's live! http://gidget.tech

jordanjay29

DonaldLouch

Can you paste the output of the following from your composer root?

pwd
php flarum
php flarum info

DonaldLouch

jordanjay29 If I'm doing this right:

pwd
/home/USERNAME
[USERNAME@HOST ~]$ php flarum
Could not open input file: flarum
[USERNAME@HOST ~]$ php flarum info
Could not open input file: flarum

jordanjay29

You did it right. I don't think you're in the flarum root.

When you type ls do you see flarum, composer.json, assets, etc?

DonaldLouch

jordanjay29:

mail
perl5
public_ftp
public_html
softaculous_backups
cache                                                       

ssl
composer.json
tmp
composer.phar 
vendor
etc
installation_directory

I do not see Flarum. I had it installed in the "installation_directory" and then moved it to "public_html/gidget.tech"

jordanjay29

Then you need to run your composer commands in public_html/gidget.tech.

datitisev

DonaldLouch If you aren't using a sub domain, flarum should be in just public_html
Just so you know ?

Sorry if I'm wrong.

DonaldLouch

jordanjay29:

When I ran:

php flarum info

in the "public_html/gidget.tech" directory I got:

Then when I ran say:

php composer.phar require santiagobiali/flarum-ext-logo

I got the following message:

jordanjay29

DonaldLouch

You can fix this two ways. Run this:

cd ..
mv composer.phar gidget.tech/composer.phar
cd gidget.tech
php composer.phar require santiagobiali/flarum-ext-logo

php ../composer.phar require santiagobiali/flarum-ext-logo

datitisev:

gidget.tech is just an add-on domain and not my main domain for my hosting! I have many domains as add-ons and sub-domains!

jordanjay29:

I got:

[USERNAME@HOST ~]$ mv composer.phar gidget.tech/composer.phar

Then when I try the other option I get:
