Add PHP Composer to chrooted

Please add PHP Composer to chrooted Environments.
Many Customers Need PHP Composer to install various scripts, cms Systems and libaries.

A current big Problem is the new typo-neos System - you must use Composer to install at sources correctly

A other Problem are PHP API's and Libaries like Payment Companies like PAYMILL etc..

We are building an extension to help you use Composer straight from the Plesk interface. Help us make a better solution for you by taking a survey on how you use Composer.
The survey will take 4-6 minutes:

    Hello,

    i have some problems with composer in an chrootet environment.

    I'm using this:

    OS: ‪Ubuntu 18.04.3 LTS‬
    Produkt: Plesk Onyx 17.8.11 Update Nr. 71 , zuletzt aktualisiert: 26. Okt. 2019 00:49:08

    It's not possible, to make composer available for a chroot user.

    chroot /var/www/vhosts/chroot composer
    /bin/bash: warning: setlocale: LC_ALL: cannot change locale (de_DE.utf8)

    Fatal error: Uncaught Error: Class 'Phar' not found in /usr/lib/plesk-9.0/composer.phar:23
    Stack trace:
    #0 {main}
    thrown in /usr/lib/plesk-9.0/composer.phar on line 23

    Can somebody tell me, what's wrong?

    No extension could possibly cover all abilities of composer in my opinion. I would still prefer it as a CLI module that's why I personally add it to chroot in all my servers normally. However a lot of libraries are needed to make it work correctly in CLI context.

    An extension is great, but there should be an option to use composer from cli as most of the developers would prefer to use it in a traditional way (from cli).

    A possible solution, it works for me. The timezone and the path for php.ini and the php extensions directory maybe different:

    wget https://plesk.zendesk.com/hc/article_attachments/115005093613/update_chroot.tar.gz
    tar -xvzf update_chroot.tar.gz
    rm update_chroot.tar.gz
    cp /etc/ld.so.conf* /var/www/vhosts/chroot/etc
    ./update_chroot.sh --add ldconfig
    ./update_chroot.sh --add ldconfig.real
    ./update_chroot.sh --add env
    ./update_chroot.sh --add php
    mkdir /var/www/vhosts/chroot/usr/share
    cp -a /usr/share/zoneinfo /var/www/vhosts/chroot/usr/share
    for i in /usr/lib/php5/20131226/*.so ; do ./update_chroot.sh --add $i ; done
    cp -a /etc/php5/cli/php.ini /var/www/vhosts/chroot/etc
    sed -i.bkp 's/;date.timezone =/date.timezone = Europe\/Budapest/' /var/www/vhosts/chroot/etc/php.ini
    mkdir /var/www/vhosts/chroot/usr/lib/plesk-9.0
    cp -a /usr/lib/plesk-9.0/composer.phar /var/www/vhosts/chroot/usr/lib/plesk-9.0/
    ./update_chroot.sh --add composer
    ./update_chroot.sh --apply all
    chroot /var/www/vhosts/chroot composer

    Composer in chroot is most important. Most popular webmailer Roundcube needs composer for installing plugins...

    All other server solutions habe no problem with copmposer only plesk has :( :(

  • Sidi commented  ·   ·  Flag as inappropriate

    Another example is additional commands relating to deploy with the composer:
    php[env] artisan db:seed --class=delete_tables
    php[env] artisan migrate

    You've created a beutifull tool with you applications composer.json scan ;)

    I think this topic is already done in Plesk 12.5 or?

    Hi all,
    reading the manual I have found here:
    http://download1.parallels.com/Plesk/Doc/it-IT/online/plesk-customer-guide/index.htm?fileName=74969.htm

    it seems not to be possible to run composer in non-chroot enviroments. But carefully reading this post:

    https://github.com/composer/composer/issues/2867

    And copying the necessary files needed by php to run (namely, php modules like phar and others), it is possible to have it running. So, in my opinion, it is always best to do some investigations directly before asking support that could come very long after you have asked.

    @AK
    we are a hosting company and would appreciate the combination of the composer with chrooted environments, too.

  • Sebastian commented  ·   ·  Flag as inappropriate

    @AK
    thanks for the fast response!
    yes, we need the composer feature absolutly with chrooted environments.

    multiple customers on one system without to chroot every on its own home is against our security compliance. So composer and chrooted together are the only valid solution for us.

    i know you have a great dev-team, he can solve this feature in a nice way ;)

    hope to hear from you

    thanks and best regards
    sebastian
