Hi Rich,

I really appreciate you looking into it and confirming the issue so quickly. It's great to know a ticket is already in the works. I'll keep an eye out for the fix in ProGet 2024.39.

Thanks again for your help!

Hi there,

I'm using ProGet to host a Composer feed and I've run into a problem when using packages that provide vendor binaries like PHPStan.

The package metadata ProGet delivers at [FEED]/p2/phpstan/phpstan.json is missing the "bin" key that defines the vendor binaries.

That means that Composer will not create links to these binaries in vendor/bin, and calling them using e.g. vendor/bin/phpstan does not work.

I made sure that the composer.json in the imported package contains the "bin" key. It also doesn't matter if I add the package through the browser or via the drop path of the feed.

Thank you for your time.

According to https://docs.inedo.com/docs/proget/feeds/other-types the Composer feed type is planned for a maintenance release of ProGet 2024, which is great news!

We're currently using Satis for PHP packages alongside ProGet (for NuGet, npm, Python). Working with Satis is a bit cumbersome, that's why we would very much prefer using ProGet for PHP packages, too.

Satis downloads the distribution zips for all packages and generates a static site with package metadata and the zips. I guess ProGet will handle Composer feeds in a similar fashion?

Feel free to reach out to me via email if you need further feedback or beta testers for the Composer feed type.
