Composer update

Hello all,

Which is the right way to update the latest version of the module using composer like either remove the installed one and reinstall the latest one?
Note: While install(“composer require modulename:1.1.0”) with the existing module(version 1.0.0) I have faced the error “Nothing to install”.

So, please share your valuable feedback on this topic.

Hello :slight_smile:

which OXID eShop Version you use?

I am using the latest OXid eshop version 6.2.1.

Hi Mohana,

We normally change the Version to use in composer.json and call “composer update --no-dev”. This works for us.

Cheers, Thorsten

Since OXID eShop Community Edition 6.2.x, the modules have 4 states. More Informations Installation and Activation — OXID eShop developer documentation 6.2.0 documentation

An Example to Update your PayPal Module Version 6.2.0 to 6.2.1

To change composer.json and composer.lock via console.

composer require --no-update oxid-esales/paypal-module:v6.2.1
composer update --no-dev

and maybe to load new metadata settings in your 1.yaml File

vendor/bin/oe-console oe:module:apply-configuration

To query the available module versions you can search via https://packagist.org/ your module e.g. PayPal Modul you find with “oxid-esales/paypal-module” and the result oxid-esales/paypal-module - Packagist

On the right side you can see the available versions and how to address them.

You have to differentiate between composer install --no-dev and composer update --no-dev

When you use composer install --no-dev, you have to define a new version in composer.json beforehand.
