How to install Zend Framework 2 Tool with composer

frameworks, php, zend-framework2

Solution

You should copy zf.php into your root directory and run it from there.

$ mkdir tmp && cd tmp
$ curl -s https://getcomposer.org/installer | php
$ ./composer.phar require zendframework/zftool:dev-master
$ cp vendor/zendframework/zftool/zf.php .
$ php zf.php

Problem

I can't figure out how to run zf.php (Zend Framework 2 Tool) when bootstrapped with composer. First I bootstrap composer and zftool according to the documentation: ``` $ mkdir tmp && cd tmp $ curl -s https://getcomposer.org/installer | php $ ./composer.phar require zendframework/zftool:dev-master ``` This works fine so far. But when I try to run zf.php, I get errors: ``` $ vendor/zendframework/zftool/zf.php PHP Warning: require_once(/Users/seb/tmp/vendor/zendframework/zftool/vendor/autoload.php): failed to open stream: No such file or directory in /Users/seb/tmp/vendor/zendframework/zftool/zf.php on line 13 Warning: require_once(/Users/seb/tmp/vendor/zendframework/zftool/vendor/autoload.php): failed to open stream: No such file or directory in /Users/seb/tmp/vendor/zendframework/zftool/zf.php on line 13 PHP Fatal error: require_once(): Failed opening required '/Users/seb/tmp/vendor/zendframework/zftool/vendor/autoload.php' (include_path='.:/opt/local/lib/php') in /Users/seb/tmp/vendor/zendframework/zftool/zf.php on line 13 Fatal error: require_once(): Failed opening required '/Users/seb/tmp/vendor/zendframework/zftool/vendor/autoload.php' (include_path='.:/opt/local/lib/php') in /Users/seb/tmp/vendor/zendframework/zftool/zf.php on line 13 ``` What am I doing wrong? I'm using PHP 5.3.21 on Mac. I also tested it on my Debian VServer with PHP 5.4, same error :(
