How to get listed in "Used by" section? #490

Closed ddur closed 2 years ago

How to get my repository listed in "Used by" section of this repository? (see below "Packages")

Thanks

YahnisElsts commented 2 years ago

I'm actually not sure how that section works. It seems to be generated automatically. I think it might be based on composer.json? So you might need to list this package (yahnis-elsts/plugin-update-checker) as a dependency in your own composer.json, if you have one.

Thanks

My guess is to have sub-directory named after your repository (yahnis-elsts/plugin-update-checker). Maybe under /vendor/.

ddur commented 2 years ago

Yes, composer. Example

Looks like this is the another way: 7.11 Git Tools - Submodules

@YahnisElsts

GitHub shows dependencies using composer.json only, although composer is not used at all.

For what it's worth, Composer is used in this project. This update checker is also a valid Composer package.

I'm aware of that, thank you.
