PHP

FOSSA supports PHP projects through Composer.

CLI (fossa-cli) (Recommended)

To get started, install the latest release of fossa-cli from our GitHub releases page:

curl -H 'Cache-Control: no-cache' https://raw.githubusercontent.com/fossas/fossa-cli/master/install-latest.sh | bash

Once installed, run fossa analyze inside of your repo's root directory to analyze your Compose project.

You can view our extended documentation here.

Quick Import (app.fossa.com)

If an exact version is not given (i.e. a version range), FOSSA will resolve a dependency to the highest version satisfying the constraint compliant to the Composer versioning spec.

Currently, Repository Scanning of Composer projects have the following limitations:

• We do not elect versions based on the composer.lock file.
• We currently ignore stability tags (@dev, @stable, etc.).
• We ignore php and php extensions when inside the require key of composer.json.
• We only look at require for dependencies. Dev dependencies will be ignored (require-dev, repositories, replace will be ignored).
• Non-standard version constraints (i.e. dev-, or .x-dev) currently have stability issues.

Package Data

FOSSA supports any package available on https://packagist.org/.

All code within a package is audited for license information. If a license file is declared by the license field in composer.json, it will be elected as a "Declared License" or "Primary License" in the FOSSA UI.
