Update composer.json

Open on Drupal.org →
Created on 30 September 2024, 3 months ago

Problem/Motivation

Since we recently updated the d.o-Project-node's summary field for the project browser initiative → , we should update the description field in composer.json too.

We can also remove some fields from composer.json, because the Drupal.org Composer Service (façade) a.k.a. project_composer → rewrites the following fields which are currently defined...

  1. require: it will be set to match the dependencies in the .info.yml file
  2. license: it will be set to GPL-2.0-or-later, because all projects hosted on d.o must have this license
  3. type: it will be set to drupal-module because the d.o-Project-node type is project_module

For more information, see the following project_browser code: _project_composer_build_component_metadata(), project_composer_get_component_json(), and _project_composer_release_metadata().

Note that project_composer also rewrites the name, but it is one of the few required fields in composer.json, so if someone happens to clone the module, it is nice to have it set, so that Composer doesn't get upset.

Proposed resolution

  1. Update the description field in composer.json
  2. Remove the type, require, and license fields in composer.json
