Generally, when I install Composer, I usually do this:
curl -sS https://getcomposer.org/installer | php
It downloads a file called composer.phar . But then I have to keep putting the folder path all the time I'm going to execute.
For example:
~/downloads/composer.phar
I'd like to do this simply on the command line:
composer self-update && composer update
How can I do this in Linux?
An alias could solve
vi ~/.bashrc
add
alias nome_do_alias=comando
example
alias composer=/a/pasta/onde/estah/conposer.phar
The alias feature varies according to the Linux distribution, but in general it is similar to the example above.
Another even simpler way is to create a symbolic link
ln -s /local/do/arquivo/composer.phar composer
The solution to this is to just move the downloaded file to the /usr/local/bin folder.
Come on.
1) First download the composer file:
curl -sS https://getcomposer.org/installer | php
2) I believe that before moving it is only necessary to give permission to execute:
sudo chmod +x composer.phar
3) And then, just move it:
sudo mv composer.phar /usr/local/bin/composer

If you do not have curl installed, you can run the command:
sudo apt-get install curl
Or use one of these instead of the first step:
php -r "readfile('https://getcomposer.org/installer');" | php
Or
wget https://getcomposer.org/composer.phar
First, download the composer installer in any folder:
curl -sS https://getcomposer.org/installer | php
Next, use the mv command to move the composer file to the folder where linux recognizes commands:
mv composer.phar /usr/local/bin/composer
Here you can use the terminal
composer install ...
