php - 创建composer包时，我应该选择什么 "Package Type"

Question

我正在创建我的第一个 PHP Composer 包(以下 these instructions )。我已经跑了

$ composer init

正在填写详细信息，现在要求我提供

Package Type (e.g. library, project, metapackage, composer-plugin) []:

我认为这只是一个人类可识别的标签，用于对不同的包进行分类？

我想知道某处是否有包类型的定义？

我发现这是发布问题:

Composer Package Types

Out of the box, Composer supports four types:

• library: This is the default. It will simply copy the files to /vendor.

• project: This denotes a project rather than a library. For example application shells like the Symfony standard edition, CMSs like the SilverStripe installer or full fledged applications distributed as packages.

• metapackage: An empty package that contains requirements and will trigger their installation, but contains no files and will not write anything to the filesystem.

• composer-plugin: A package of type composer-plugin may provide an installer for other packages that have a custom type. Only use a custom type if you need custom logic during installation.

Package types are used for custom installation logic. If you have a package that needs some special logic, you can define a custom type. This could be a symfony-bundle, a wordpress-plugin or a typo3-cms-extension. These types will all be specific to certain projects, and they will need to provide an installer capable of installing packages of that type.
