Composer constraint updater

---

Helps You automatically resolve composer conflicts

E.g. Need to upgrade your framework to the newest version? Just run

composer major-update --constraint=package/package:^10.0

Want to upgrade minor versions and also update your compose.json file to the up-to-date versions? Run

composer minor-update

Installation

Use composer to automatically add it Your project

composer require martinsr/constraint-updater

How to use

• Add it to Your project
• Specify Your needed constraints when running composer major-update

--constraint=package/package:^10.0

• Run the either composer major-update or composer minor-update with your params.

How it works

major-update

It will replace all your composer.json package versions with * except for packages You have added with --constraint.

Versions you add for the packages will be taken literally.

Examples:

constraint=laravel/framework:^10.0 will set the version to ^10.0 constraint=laravel/framework:10.0 will set it to 10.0.

Would suggest to always add the ^ since composer will still keep the major version the same, while updating to the newest minor version other packages support.

This will make composer install the most up-to-date versions possible, taken the constraints and there won't be any conflicts as long as there is a supported version.

After composer update has been run, it will fix your composer.json file from versions that were installed and specified in Your composer.lock

minor-update

This will run composer update and after that fix the composer.json with the actual versions that were installed.

Examples:

Run

composer minor-update

Will run composer update command, and rebuild composer.json file to have up-to-date dependencies with the lock file
