Ignoring PHP version requirements with composer
Published on 2023-06-10 • Modified on 2023-06-10
In a previous snippet, we saw how to ignore platform requirements globally. Composer now allows ignoring specific requirement parameters. When you run composer install, sometimes, it can be useful to ignore the PHP platform requirements. A typical case, for instance, is when your production servers' minor version doesn't comply with the specified version in the config.platform.php parameter of the composer.json file. It is generally safe to force the installation for this case. Use this with care and only if you really know what you are doing!
composer install --ignore-platform-req=php
