README

This plugin is not maintaned for a long time. Pimcore 5 now totally depends on composer and therefore this is not needed anymore. If you still see it usefull and have any fixes, feel free to submit a pull request!

Extensions Manager for pimcore

Manage your Pimcore Extensions with Composer directly from admin panel.

Important notes

Using composer CLI from pimcore's admin panel is a bit tricky. The most important thing is that your web server needs write permissions to many paths (see required write permissions section for details).
It's a potential security issue, so be warned and use with caution.

Manager assumes that you are using pimcore's composer.json for dependency management (not one level above document-root as suggested in pimcore extensions documentation)

composer binary needs to be in $PATH and be executable.

Install

composer require pimcore-extensions/manager

Enable plugin in Extensions tab in admin panel
After reload, open Extensions tab and you should find Download Extensions button in top bar.
Make sure that all required paths are writable by your web server.
There is a CLI command to help you with that. Run it before installing any package by manager:
php pimcore/cli/console.php manager:permissions

Required write permissions

/plugins/*
/composer.json
/composer.lock
/vendor/*
