Question

There are some scripts that are executed after I run composer.

The problem is that they do things that I don’t want, like php assets:install (without –symlink).

So I need to either be able to remove that, or add my own script to do php assets:install --symlink.

What would be the correct way for doing this?

EDIT

In Sensio\Bundle\DistributionBundle\Composer\ScriptHandler::installAssets() I can see an option for symlink:

if ($options['symfony-assets-install'] == 'symlink') {
    $symlink = '--symlink ';

Is that configurable somewhere?

Answer 1

To install assets with symlinks edit your composer.json (at the end) in this way

"extra": {
    "symfony-app-dir": "app",
    "symfony-web-dir": "web",
    "symfony-assets-install": "symlink"
}

Then run composer as uusal.
