Composer on macOS

If you don't have Homebrew, install it:

$ /usr/bin/ruby -e "$(curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Homebrew/install/master/install)"

If you don't have wget, install it:

$ brew install wget

Download and install composer

$ wget https://raw.githubusercontent.com/composer/getcomposer.org/master/web/installer -O - -q | php --

Move it to access it globally

$ sudo mv composer.phar /usr/local/bin/composer

Echo to your .bash_profile to be able to call composer globally if you haven't done so before (cat ~/.bash_profile to verify)

$ echo 'export PATH=/usr/local/bin:$PATH' >> ~/.bash_profile

Refresh your Terminal window

source ~/.bash_profile

Test your installation with:

$ composer -V
# Expect: Composer version 1.7.2 2018-08-16 16:57:12

Notes

• If you are using Oh My Zsh, replace ~/.bash_profile with ~/.bzshrc for all above commands.
