📁 GetVendorDir

Gets the vendor directory path, equivalent to running composer config vendor-dir.

When to use

Use this when you need to locate the dependency installation directory, or read a package's source code or resources. If the project has not customized vendor-dir, the default <working-directory>/vendor is returned.

Signature

func (c *Composer) GetVendorDir() (string, error)

Parameters

This method takes no parameters.

Return value

Return value	Type	Description
First return value	string	The vendor directory path (customized value or default <working-directory>/vendor)
Second return value	error	Always nil (falls back to the default value when the command fails)

Example

package main

import (
	"fmt"
	"log"

	"github.com/scagogogo/composer-skills/pkg/composer"
)

func main() {
	comp, err := composer.New(composer.DefaultOptions())
	if err != nil {
		log.Fatalf("Initialization failed: %v", err)
	}

	vendorDir, err := comp.GetVendorDir()
	if err != nil {
		log.Fatalf("Failed to get vendor directory: %v", err)
	}
	fmt.Printf("Vendor directory: %s\n", vendorDir)
}
