🧹 RemoveScript

Removes the script with the specified name and its description from composer.json.

When to use

Use this when you need to clean up Composer lifecycle scripts or custom scripts that are no longer needed. This method cleans up the corresponding entry in both the scripts section and the scripts-descriptions section.

Signature

func (c *Composer) RemoveScript(name string) error

Parameters

Parameter	Type	Description
name	string	The name of the script to remove

Return value

• error: returned when reading or writing composer.json fails.

Example

package main

import (
	"log"

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

func main() {
	comp, err := composer.New(composer.DefaultOptions())
	if err != nil {
		log.Fatal(err)
	}

	if err := comp.RemoveScript("post-install-cmd"); err != nil {
		log.Fatalf("remove script failed: %v", err)
	}
}

Advanced

• 🔄 Internal flow: ReadComposerJSON → delete once from Scripts and once from ScriptsDescriptions → WriteComposerJSON.
• ⚠️ When the script does not exist or the map is nil, the method is a safe no-op and does not error.
• ➕ The corresponding add method is AddScript.
• 📋 To query existing scripts, use GetScripts (returns map[string]interface{}).
