Add To Packagist

[laurinkeithdavis]

For those of us that use composer, this would be very helpful. Right now, I have to push this into a local repo and then create my own local composer repo to pull it from, so that we can maintain our standard of all 3rd party dependencies are installed by Composer.

+1 (although I take it you no longer have to have your own fork of this now that there's a composer.json file here?). :-)

Also, as the adlap/adldap package name is taken (by the slightly-diverging fork?), I guess this may be changed to be called rich2k/adldap in Packagist?

[Rich2k]

I have an issue with this as really an incompatible fork shouldn't be using the name adldap anyway when redistributed as it encourages confusion , especially using adldap/adldap

That's a bad decision

[samwilson]

I haven't really looked into what changes have been made in that fork (although I've just switched back to this one from it, and apart from the namespace change nothing has been different so far), but I agree that the name should belong to this original project. You could register adldap as a Github organisation?

[Rich2k]

I've moved it to github.com/adldap/adLDAP

In order to add the lib on packagist, a tag must be set. For now, the only one set in repo does not point to a vertions of the code with a composer.json. (packagist ignore the tag in this situation)

Can you add a tag (v4.0.5) ? I will redirect the package adldap/adldap (on packagist) on this repository once it's done.

[datOneperson]

+1 Yeah can you make a tagged commit with composer.json? Please

[Rich2k]

There already is a release tag

[datOneperson]

The current tagged release doesn't have a composer.json in it, so Composer can't see the tag.

https://github.com/adldap/adLDAP/tree/v4.0.4

Any update on this? I really need the search() function. Not being able to easily use this (proper version) of adLDAP via composer is going to be quite annoying.

[datOneperson]

I got it to work by using dev-master and adding the git url to repositories

"repositories": [
    {
        "type": "git",
        "url": "https://github.com/adldap/adLDAP.git"
    },
],
"require": {
    "adldap/adldap": "dev-master",
},

[samwilson]

Any news on the tagging of a new release, @Rich2k (or anyone)?

[samwilson]

No news?

[stevebauman]

Yea this seriously needs to be addressed. This isn't a difficult fix. Any possibility of adding more maintainers so someone with dev time can continue working with this repo?

The large majority of frameworks rely on composer for package management, and the one on packagist right now is severely outdated and has some large bugs from long ago.

[stevebauman]

Added my own fork to packagist. This will consistently be updated with this main repository. I've renamed the repo to adldap-fork for a clear indication for users that it is a fork and not the main repo.

Anyone interested in using the updated fork in composer:

"stevebauman/adldap-fork": "4.0.*"

Packagist link

[samwilson]

@stevebauman is right, this isn't a difficult thing to fix. @Rich2k are you still around? If not, would you be willing to make someone else a maintainer?

In the interim, I reckon @stevebauman is right; I'm going to use his fork for the time being. :)
