README

A composer-plugin adding three commands to composer:

1. venv:shell - activate/deactivate the composer virtual environment in shell
2. venv:hook - add/remove shell hooks, triggered on activating or deactivating the virtual environment
3. venv:link - create symlinks to arbitrary locations
4. venv:git-hook - create git-hooks from various sources

Installation

Method 1: globally, so it is available in all packages

php composer.phar global require sjorek/composer-virtual-environment-plugin

Method 2: as a package requirement

php composer.phar require --dev sjorek/composer-virtual-environment-plugin

  to activate and deactivate the current bin directory in shell.
  
  Usage:
  
      php composer.phar venv:shell
  
  After this you can source the activation-script
  corresponding to your shell.
  
  if only one shell-activator or bash and zsh have been deployed:
      source vendor/bin/activate
  
  csh:
      source vendor/bin/activate.csh
  
  fish:
      . vendor/bin/activate.fish

  The virtual-environment:link command places symlinks
  to php- and composer-binaries in the bin directory.
  
  Example:
  
      php composer.phar venv:link '{$bin-dir}/composer':'{$bin-dir-up}/composer.phar'
  
  After this you can use the linked binaries in composer
  run-script or in virtual-environment:shell.
  
  Attention: only link the composer like in the example above,
  if your project does not require the composer/composer package.
