{
    "config": {
        "allow-plugins": {
            "bkief29/pcomposer": true
        },
        "extra" : {
            "shared-package": {
                "vendor-dir": "/Users/%MY_USER%/.composer/pcomposer",
                "symlink-dir": "vendor",
                "symlink-enabled": true,
                "package-list": [
                    "*"
                ]
            }
        
        }
    }
}

Options

    "extra" : {
        "pcomposer": {
            "exclude": [
                "spatie/data-transfer-object"
            ]
        }
    }
},

  find $1 -type d \( -name "vendor" \) -maxdepth 2 -print0 | while read -d $'\0' file
