README

Composer plugin to isolate project dependencies by prefixing their namespace.

Requirements

• PHP 7.4 or later
• Composer v2

How it Works

• It registers itself as a Composer plugin when you add it to your project through the extra.class directive in the composer.json file pointing to WPElevator\Vendor_Isolator\Plugin in php/class-plugin.php.

• It hooks into pre-autoload-dump and post-autoload-dump Composer events and uses nikic/php-parser to rewrite the namespaces and classname references for all non-development dependencies. It ignores all global function and classes.

To Do

• Describe how this is different from php-scoper and other projects.

Features and Limitations

• It only rewrites the non-development dependencies in the vendor directory, therefore your application code must reference the isolated dependencies by their prefixed namespace.

• It doesn't replace function definitions and calls in the global namespace. Any definitions and calls to global functions will remain in the global namespace after the transformation.
