PHP Composer requires AtoM's composer.json file which it is missing in distro

[Fabio A. Miranda]

Hello:

On Ubuntu 20.x and php 7.2, composer latest version while you are instlling atom following installation guide from documentatio, you come across this:

So, question, where is atom's composer.json ?

Thanks,

fabio.

Hi Fabio,

composer.json should be in the AtoM root directory, and from your screenshot you're in that directory. Are you definitely using the GitHub version of AtoM (https://github.com/artefactual/atom), as opposed to the tarball?

As an aside: you're probably already aware that Ubuntu 20.x isn't supported with the current release, 2.6. Future release 2.7 will support Ubuntu 20.04, but with PHP 7.4, not 7.2.

Thanks, Jim

Hi Fabio, 

Jim's reply is correct: Composer is only required if you are following Option 2 (Check out the code from our Git repository) for your installation. If you are following Option 1 (Download the tarball), you can skip all the steps under Option 2, and jump to the next section, Filesystem permissions. 

Composer is not included in the downloadable tarball, because the remote dependencies have already been bundled into the tarball itself.
