README

This repository is a Composer/Packagist mirror of the Moodle plugin filter_syntaxhighlighter. The plugin's own files live at the repository root; a daily GitHub Action advances to the next published version and tags it, so Packagist always tracks the directory.

Package	udir-moodle/filter_syntaxhighlighter (type moodle-filter)
Installs to	the Moodle path for that type, via composer/installers (folder syntaxhighlighter)
Tags	the Moodle $plugin->version integer (e.g. 2024100700), one per release
Updater	goupdate (config: .goupdate.yml), run by .github/workflows/update.yml daily
Compatibility	each release requires moodle/moodle matching the Moodle versions it supports

Only this .github/ folder, composer.json, and .goupdate.yml are owned by the mirror — they always survive an update; everything else is the upstream plugin and is replaced.

Setup in your Moodle/Composer project (required)

Each release requires moodle/moodle (the official core package — Packagist mirrors the github.com/moodle/moodle tags), so declare your core version first and bump it when you upgrade Moodle:

// composer.json of your site — pick ONE:
"require": { "moodle/moodle": "4.5.10" }    // installs core source, unused, into vendor/moodle/moodle
"replace": { "moodle/moodle": "4.5.10" }    // core already lives in your repo — declare without installing

composer require 'udir-moodle/filter_syntaxhighlighter:*'   # '*' — versions are Moodle date integers

Composer then never selects a release that doesn't support your Moodle, and upgrading core pulls plugins forward. If you skip the declaration, composer satisfies the requirement itself by installing whatever core version fits into vendor/ — declare it so updates are gated to your Moodle.

Custom placement

composer/installers installs moodle-filter packages to their standard Moodle path automatically. To place differently, the consuming project's composer.json decides:

"extra": { "installer-paths": {
    "custom/path/{$name}/": ["type:moodle-filter"],           // every moodle-filter package
    "exact/dir/":           ["udir-moodle/filter_syntaxhighlighter"]  // only this package
} }

If moodle-filter is a sub-plugin type composer/installers doesn't know, also require oomphinc/composer-installers-extender and add "installer-types": ["moodle-filter"].
