composer.json fails to resolve installable set of

问题:

I can't install stof/doctrine-extensions-bundle with my Composer. I'm using Symfony2.1.9 version and a lot of problems are shown. The first one is:

the requested package stof/doctrine-extensions-bundle 1.1.* could not be found.

This is my composer.json file:

    "name": "symfony/framework-standard-edition",
    "description": "The \"Symfony Standard Edition\" distribution",

        "branch-alias": {
            "dev-master": "2.1-dev"
        }
    }
}

when i set the package requirement to: "stof/doctrine-extensions-bundle": "1.1.*@dev" the response was: your requirement could not be resolved to an installable set of package

what could be the problem please?? should i install DoctrineExtensions first????

回答1:

The critical part in here is the following:

[...]
white-october/pagerfanta-bundle dev-master requires symfony/framework-bundle >=2.2,<3.0 -> satisfiable by symfony/symfony[v2.2.0, v2.2.1], symfony/framework-bundle[v2.2.0, v2.2.1].
[...]

Which can lead to confusion! Let me explain:

Though it says the dependency is satisfiable by updating symfony/symfony to 2.2.0 or 2.2.1 ... this update is NOT NEEDED !! ( even if updating might be a good idea it is not necessary to resolve the issue and could lead to broken code because of BC [backward compatibility] breaks )

Attention:

Many bundles have a legacy branch ... for example a 2.1.x branch to support symfony/symfony 2.1.

Look for these branches on packagist prior to blindly updating your whole project to a new version of the root package!

Tip:

Generally if composer fails to fetch a dependency this is often related to the minimum stability for one of your required packages. minimum stability of all packages normally defaults to stable.

Solution:

smarttech used the wrong branch (dev-master) for white-october/pagerfanta-bundle to use it with symfony 2.1. The correct branch for 2.1 would have been:

"white-october/pagerfanta-bundle": "2.1.*@dev"

... where the @dev stability flag tells composer to use the dev version of doctrine-extensions-bundle for this single package. Please read more about composer's Stability Flags.

Take a quick look at the stability hierarchy:

dev < alpha < beta < rc < stable

Alternative:

Another way to solve the issue would have been setting composer's minimum stability.

Though this is not recommended as it applies to all constraints and as a result you will get unstable versions of all packages.

{

    [...]
    "require" :

        [...]

    "minimum-stability" : "dev",

    [...]

}

回答2:

As the 1.1.x branch of the stof/doctrine-extensions-bundle is still only available as dev. So you have to declare it as a dev dependency in composer. Simply:

"stof/doctrine-extensions-bundle": "1.1.*@dev"

Next time take a look at packagist, which versions are available of a desired bundle.

EDIT: And yes, tested this requirement in a fresh symfony install and it works. So if you have errors, edit the complete error message in your question!

回答3:

As this is a completly different answer. Your problem is not stof/doctrine-extensions-bundle, it's white-october/pagerfanta-bundle. Kids, read the error messages!

How i knew this? Simply copied your composer.json, executed update and got a meaning error message:

 white-october/pagerfanta-bundle dev-master requires symfony/framework-bundle >=2.2,<3.0 -> satisfiable by symfony/symfony[v2.2.0, v2.2.1], symfony/framework-bundle[v2.2.0, v2.2.1].

which means, actual versions of pagerfanta-bundle requires symfony 2.2, so you have to upgrade, if you want to use it.
