||
To use Conductor: | ||
|
||
- [subscribe to the waitlist](http://packagist.com.lo/features/conductor) | ||
- subscribe to a Private Packagist Subscription (either Cloud or Self-Hosted) | ||
- get access to Conductor from [Private Packagist Support](mailto:[email protected]) | ||
- add a workflow to your Continuous Integration Platform to run Composer updates | ||
- verify the setup | ||
|
||
- You need to be approved for early access to conductor. [Join to the waitlist](http://packagist.com.lo/features/conductor) and wait for approval. | ||
- You need a Private Packagist trial or subscription (Cloud or Self-Hosted). | ||
- You need to add a workflow to your Continuous Integration platform to run Composer updates, described below. | ||
|
||
## First steps | ||
|
||
Once you have a Private Packagist Subscription and Conductor is enabled for your subscription, log into your Private Packagist organization and click on the Updates tab in the main navigation. | ||
Conductor will list all Packages with a composer.lock file and the Private Packagist repository added to the composer.json. | ||
Once you have a Private Packagist Subscription and Conductor is enabled for your subscription, log into your Private Packagist organization and click on the "Updates" tab in the main navigation. | ||
Conductor will list packages: | ||
- added to Private Packagist via synchronization | ||
- having a composer.lock file commited to the repository | ||
- having the Private Packagist repository added to the composer.json | ||
|
||
If you do not see your package, follow the instructions on your organization page to add the custom repository to the composer.json of your package. | ||
|
||
Most convenient way to set up Conductor is to configure your CI in the Private Packagist UI. The manual steps are outlined below: | ||

We recommend to create a dedicated authentication token with update access. You can copy n paste the contents for the secret from the Private Packagist UI while creating the token in "Settings" -> "Authentication Tokens". Remove the single quotes around the value. | ||

The list shows groups of all available updates to be scheduled. Each group of updates is called a task. Conductor will schedule only one task at a time. All others are waiting for the task on top of the list to be successful or paused. | ||
Once Conductor schedules a task it sends a payload to your CI Platform that triggers the workflow you just added. The payload contains the commands Composer will run to update a group of dependencies from your package. | ||
Once Conductor schedules a task it sends a payload to your CI platform that triggers the workflow you just added. The payload contains the commands Composer will run to update a group of dependencies from your package. | ||
|
||
The workflow consists of several steps: | ||
|
||
- code checkout | ||
- php setup | ||
- Composer install | ||
- run Composer update commands from the payload | ||
- commit changed files (composer.lock, ...) | ||
- push commit to a new branch | ||
- Send the status of the workflow to Private Packagist via curl | ||
1. Checkout the code from your repository | ||
2. Set up PHP | ||
3. Run `composer install` | ||
4. Run Composer update commands | ||
5. Commit changed files (composer.lock, ...) | ||
6. Push commits to a new branch (or force push an existing branch) | ||
7. Send the status of the workflow to Private Packagist | ||
|
||
If all these steps succeeded, Private Packagist creates a pull request for the just pushed branch. The PR description will contain details about the update and changelogs from your dependencies. Conductor integrates with [Update Review](https://packagist.com/features/update-review) to present a reviewable list of all updated dependencies. | ||

|
||
Once you reviewed the changes and merged the PR, Conductor will schedule the next task. | ||
If you close the PR, the task will be paused and Conductor will schedule the next task. This is the same effect as using the "Pause" button in the UI. Conductor won't attempt to update the dependency to this exact version, but will schedule updates with newer versions. | ||
