Topic : Composer Installer for composer.phar installs

Posted By: virtualdavid on May 23, 2015, 4:53 pm

Really like Softaculous! Won't use a shared server without it.

Suggestion
Not sure if this is a trend, but The Bug Genie just released version 4.0 using Composer to install
all its necessary components. I was wondering if perhaps making a Composer install that only runs these composer.phar installs would be wanted by more and more of your tech users, given more and more open source projects will be using it to install their components?

You built a flawless installer for Laravel that requires this Composer component install, but I was thinking for users on shared hosts that don't allow shell access, perhaps building a limited Composer installer would satisfy the nerdy user itch to play with latest open source projects before you, Softaculous, spends the time to release an installer for it?

Cheers!

This is awesome news!

Will the Bug Genie installer include an upgrade option that will preserve saved files and data?

Hi,

We are working on this and if the BugGenie team provides upgrade we will add it as well.
