Onion

Onion, The fast approach to make/install/bundle PEAR packages for PHP.

Onion is able to generate a PEAR2-compatible package.xml file from a very simple config file, you can release your PEAR package very quickly!

And through Onion, you can also install PEAR dependencies into local bundle (just like Ruby Bundler).

Onion is not target to replace other package manager, its target is to make current PEAR ecosystem easier.

Let's keep hard long PEAR package.xml away! :-)

Onion is for people want to..

  • Build PEAR package easily, quickly.
  • Install PEAR dependencies into local project directory. (like Ruby Bundler)

What People Say

nrk:

its own package.ini file looks simple enough to edit and maintain. It's been super-easy to get up and running and I haven't encountered any real problems. Onion looks good already.

Requirement

  • PHP 5.3
  • simplexml extension
  • DOMDocument extension
  • curl

The minimal spec file

[package] name = Onion desc = package description version = 0.0.1 author = Yo-An Lin <cornelius.howl@gmail.com> channel = pear.php.net

A Quick tutorial for building PEAR package

Get and install onion:

$ curl -s http://install.onionphp.org/ | sh 

Please make sure your directory structure:

src/ # contains php source code doc/ # documentation files (optional) tests/ # unit testing files 

Fill your package.ini file:

[package] name = Onion desc = package description version = 0.0.1 channel = pear.php.net author = Yo-An Lin <cornelius.howl@gmail.com> 

To generate a package.xml 2.0 spec file for PEAR and build a PEAR package, just run:

$ onion build --pear 

Then Your PEAR package is out!

The --pear flag is optional.

See:

$ onion help build 

Adding package dependencies

[package] name = Onion desc = package description version = 0.0.1 author = Yo-An Lin <cornelius.howl@gmail.com> channel = pear.php.net [require] php = 5.3 pearinstaller = 1.4 pear.php.net/PackageName = 0.0.1 

Bundle

Install PEAR dependencies into vendor/ directory

$ onion install 

Compile package to Phar executable/library file

An example, we use onion to compile our executable file onion:

$ onion compile \ --executable \ --classloader \ --bootstrap scripts/onion.embed \ --lib src \ --lib ../CLIFramework/src \ --lib ../GetOptionKit/src \ --output onion

Version Naming

version naming standard from PEAR group: http://pear.php.net/manual/en/rfc.version-naming.standard.php

Customize roles

There are many built-in roles so that you don't need to define it by yourself, built-in roles are:

  • src/ php role
  • docs/ doc role
  • tests/ test role
  • *.md doc role

But you can add custom roles by yourself.

[roles] path/to/data = data path/to/library = php path/to/doc = doc

A more detailed example

[package] name = your package name desc = package description summary = .... # optional, default to Description homepage = http://your.web.com # optional license = PHP # optional, default to PHP version = 0.0.1 version.api = 0.0.1 # optional, default to "version" channel = pear.php.net # default ; lead developer author = Yo-An Lin <cornelius.howl@gmail.com> ; other authors authors[] = Yo-An Lin <cornelius.howl@gmail.com> authors[] = Yo-An Lin ; contributors ... contributors[] = ... # optional maintainers[] = ... # optional [require] php = '> 5.3' pearinstaller = '1.4.1' ; pear package based on channel pear.channel.net/package = 1.1 ; pear package based on URI package = http://www.example.com/Foo-1.3.0 package = conflicts extension/reflection = extension/ctype = extension/pcre = [roles] ; mapping files to role your_script = bin ; glob is supported. *.md = doc *.php = php [optional remoteshell] hint = Add support for Remote Shell Operations channel/test = 0.1 channel/foo = 0.2 extensions[] = ssh2
