The Dossiers component was developed by Kubica Webdevelopment.

• Joomla 3.X . Untested in Joomla 2.5.
• Koowa 0.9 or 1.0 (as yet, Koowa 2 is not supported)
• PHP 5.3.10 or better
• Composer
• Moyo Components
  • com_cck
  • com_moyo

Installation is done through composer. In your composer.json file, you should add the following lines to the repositories section:

from this repository;

{
    "name": "kubica/com_dossiers",
    "type": "vcs",
    "url": "https://github.com/kedweber/com_debates.git"
}

or perhaps from the original writer, Dave Li, himself;

The require section should contain the following line:

    "kubica/com_dossiers": "1.0.*",

Afterwards, one just needs to run the command composer update from the root of your Joomla project. This will effectively create a composer.lock file which will contain the collected dependencies and the hash codes for each latest release (depending on the require section's format) for each particular repo. Should installations problems occur due to a bad ordering of the dependencies, one may need to go into the lock file and manualy change the order of the components. Running composer update again will again cause a reordering of the lock file, beware of this factor when running an update. Thereafter, you can run the command composer install.

If you have not setup an alias to use the command composer, then you will need to replace the word composer in the previous commands with the commands with php composer.phar followed by the desired action (eg. update or install).

Another option, currently only available for Moyo developers, is by using the jsymlink script from the Moyo Git Tools.
