Flarum Extension-Generator Setup Error

clarkwinkelmann

I have never used absolute paths for Composer repositories.

You could try with a relative path.

Also Windows uses backslash \, maybe Composer is sensitive to that? The opposite could also be true, some tools use only forward slashes for paths even on Windows.

Also maybe there's a protocol required for when using absolute path, for example file://. Did you find a documentation that explains how to use absolute paths in the Composer documentation? I think all examples I've seen until now use relative paths.

"Oh s**t! Clark is here.."
I use this documentation and I follow your live flarum coding videos for extend flarum. (Very usefull)

(Nice to meet you Clark, you are definitely a Super Hero for Flarum Community , (Sure not like Batman but cool 😅 )

Problem is just "repositories", right?

clarkwinkelmann

jedi well the keys and values look correct according to https://getcomposer.org/doc/05-repositories.md#path

The only thing I cannot find documentation for is the use of an absolute path. Every example and issue I find when searching for this are relative paths.

I don't have access to a Windows computer so I cannot test if that syntax works for me 😅

Is Flarum inside C:\wamp64\www\bek ? If so you could try to just use packages/* as the url, as suggested in https://docs.flarum.org/extend/start.html#extension-packaging

I've never used the options key, I don't think it's necessary.

jedi

I now trying this code but is the same error 🙁

"repositories": [
   {
            "type": "path",
            "url": "C:\wamp64\www\bek\packages\batman",
            "options": {
                "versions": {
                    "batman": "4.2-dev"
                }
            }
        }
    ]

jedi

clarkwinkelmann Is Flarum inside C:\wamp64\www\bek ?

Yes

jedi

Now I get this error

Theurlsupplied for the path (packages/*) repository does not exist

jedi

jedi Theurlsupplied for the path (packages/*) repository does not exist

This problem is was solved with "repositories" is here: https://discuss.flarum.org/d/1608-extension-development-using-composer-repositories-path
But then here we back again same error 🤣

askvortsov

jedi Are you using a relative path now?

jedi

askvortsov I using now this code:

 "repositories": [
        {
            "type": "path",
            "url": "packages/*"
        }
]

askvortsov

What's the output of composer why-not superman/flarum-ext-batman

jedi

I setup it's Flarum Extension-Generator again.
Repositories is:

  "repositories": [
        {
            "type": "path",
            "url": "packages/batman"
        }
    ]

askvortsov What's the output of composer why-not superman/flarum-ext-batman

And now says, "There is no installed package depending on "superman/flarum-ext-batman"

jedi

..Says, "I not find"
but how? I see name in the composer.json file

 [InvalidArgumentException]
  Could not find package "superman/flarum-ext-batman" in your project

askvortsov

luceos

jedi You need to put the repositories key to the composer.json of the flarum install not in your extension. Make sure to use the packages/* again.

jedi

"OMG! Luceos is here.." Error is solved.
I got it now. I don't what to say, thank you so mach, man! Hell yeah! You are my hero. I'm feeling like won Eurovision Single Constent 2021. Thank you, thank you, thank you and thank you too Europe!
