When specifying a "path" repository with a wildcard, does Composer do a recursive scan of the subdirectories for packages (i.e., composer.json files)?

I'm asking about when you have configuration like this:

{
"repositories": {
"modules": {
"type": "path",
"url": "modules/*"
}
}
}

I like that running composer --version also shows you the version of PHP you're using.

Quick update on composer-unused.dev!

5 days ago I shared upcoming changes - now Docker communication, dynamic environment creation, and real-time composer-unused results are working!

Still adding environment variable storage and better logging. Can't wait to share with the PHP community - the main goal is helping users report bugs more effectively and enabling better support!

I had a wonderful time in Greece for the Athens Epidaurus Festival premiere of the music-theater Field Guide [to the Lost Flower] based on my text. #poetry #newmusic #MichalisParaskakis #composer #poet

I saw this startup image when launching PHPStorm this morning. PHP turned 30 over the weekend!

I've been part of those 30 years for 28 of them, and the last 10 years (since PHP 7) have been the best. I'm constantly amazed at how much the language and the whole ecosystem have evolved (looking at you, Composer).

My eldest offspring, Linus, has just finished his degree in #CreativeMusicTechnology, and has put his #ShortFilm #ConceptAlbum online.

Edit: he got a 1st!

Linus is available for #work as a composer, sound designer, scoring, game design, etc.

Is #dodecaphonic #music actually used for anything but horror/terror music? I mean, it is the worse music one can listen to.

I've just signed a book contract. Plus more news about the music-theater, and song premieres. And photos. #poetry #photography #newmusic #composer #nature #birds #flowers #DorothyChang #MichalisParaskakis #Athens #Vancouver #Halifax

Composer Dorothy Change has written a poem based on my poem "Knot" (from Wavelengths of Your Song). The premiere will be in Vancouver in July.
