Packages (Extensions)

It is very easy to extend a phd-based application with existing composer packages. You can integrate any Yii2 extension or PHP library into phd.

docker-compose run --rm php bash

Finding packages

Start with a search on Packagist or from your command line

$ composer search -N "yii2-excel"

Installing packages

To install an extension simply require it in your composer.json with the following command

$ composer require vendor/package

Make sure to commit your composer.lock file, so your co-developers get the exact same version.

Configuring packages

How to configure a package depends on the package and it's type. In general you can follow Yii's rules for application module and component configuration.

Show installed packages

$ composer show --installed
