Composer and NPM

From OpenEMR Project Wiki
(Redirected from Composer)

Overview

Introduction

Composer provides the following key functions for OpenEMR:
  1. A tool for dependency management of packages for OpenEMR in 'vendor' directory.
  2. An autoloader of libraries including OpenEMR classes.
NPM provide the following key functions for OpenEMR:
  1. A tool for dependency management of packages for OpenEMR in 'public/assets' directory.
  2. A tool for building css theme files for OpenEMR in 'public/themes' directory.
  3. A open door to do lots of cool stuff in the future.

Installation

Composer

Windows

This is the easiest way to get Composer set up on your machine.

The installer will download composer for you and set up your PATH environment variable so you can simply call composer from any directory. Download and run Composer-Setup.exe - it will install the latest composer version whenever it is executed. See: https://getcomposer.org/doc/00-intro.md/

To test your installation, open up your favourite Command Line Interface (CLI) and run: 

composer

And you should get output similar to this: 

   ______
  / ____/___  ____ ___  ____  ____  ________  _____
 / /   / __ \/ __ `__ \/ __ \/ __ \/ ___/ _ \/ ___/
/ /___/ /_/ / / / / / / /_/ / /_/ (__  )  __/ /
\____/\____/_/ /_/ /_/ .___/\____/____/\___/_/
                    /_/
Composer version 1.1.2 2016-05-31 19:48:11

Usage:
  command [options] [arguments]

Options:
  -h, --help                     Display this help message
  -q, --quiet                    Do not output any message
  -V, --version                  Display this application version
      --ansi                     Force ANSI output
      --no-ansi                  Disable ANSI output
  -n, --no-interaction           Do not ask any interactive question
      --profile                  Display timing and memory usage information
      --no-plugins               Whether to disable plugins.
  -d, --working-dir=WORKING-DIR  If specified, use the given directory as working directory.
  -v|vv|vvv, --verbose           Increase the verbosity of messages: 1 for normal output, 2 for more verbose output and 3 for debug

Linux & MacOS

The first step is to download Composer, which will effectively create a Phar (PHP Archive) file called composer.phar. From your terminal, run the following command: 

curl -sS https://getcomposer.org/installer | php

The resulting file will be called composer.phar, a PHP Archive that can be executed directly via PHP. However, in our case, we want Composer to be accessible globally by simply typing composer. To do this, move it to /usr/bin/ and create an alias: 

sudo mv composer.phar /usr/local/bin/
vim ~/.bash_profile

Add this to your .bash_profile. It may be empty or non-existent, so go ahead and create it: 

alias composer="php /usr/local/bin/composer.phar"

Now, relaunch your terminal and you'll be able to access Composer simply by calling composer

To test your installation, open up your favourite Command Line Interface (CLI) and run:

NPM

Instructions are under construction.

Usage

  1. clone the OpenEMR development version from github: https://github.com/openemr/openemr.git
git clone https://github.com/openemr/openemr.git
  1. Once it’s done run the following command to move into the OpemEMR root directory and checkout the master branch.
cd openemr
git checkout master

To run Composer for the first time and install the packages simply run: 

composer install

When Composer has finished its install you’ll be ready to install OpenEMR after you run the following commands to bring in npm packages and build css scripts and optimize composer autoloading: 

npm install
npm run build
composer dump-autoload -o

Adding new packages

Composer

  1. Add package/vendor to the composer.json file
  2. run composer install
    1. (if this isn't bringing in requested package, then will need to remove the composer.lock file before running the command)
  3. Remove unused files(if they are present) from the installed package (eg. git, .gitignore, tests, docs) - You must update build.xml to include directory(s). This step will require a composer global install of phing and then use the path to phing below in the call.
    1. Windows - From the command line run call vendor/bin/phing vendor-clean
    2. Linux - From the command line run ./vendor/bin/phing vendor-clean
      • (btw, if need to clean up public/assets for bower stuff, then run ./vendor/bin/phing assets-clean )
  4. run composer dump-autoload -o

NPM

Autoloader

Ongoing Work

Working on using the autoloader to modernize the OpenEMR codebase. Steps:
  1. Place the central libraries that are always called in OpenEMR into the autoloader. (COMPLETED)
  2. Place the OpenEMR classes into the classmap autoloader.(IN PROGRESS)
    • Done with library/classes with following exceptions that plan to work on:
    • Prescription.class.php, /ClinicalTypes, /rulesets, and /smtp.
  3. Convert libraries into classes and also bring these in via the classmap autoloader.
  4. Above steps will allow then to do the following:
    • Remove globals from within classes.
    • Write phpunit tests.
  5. Place new "modernized" OpenEMR classes into the PSR-4 autoloader.(IN PROGRESS)

Update Autoloader

If updating classes within OpenEMR to work with the autoloader, then just need to run the following command:
  • run composer dump-autoload -o
