PHAR file [preferred]

php composer-require-checker.phar check /path/to/your/project/composer.json

phive install composer-require-checker

Composer - global command

This package can be easily globally installed by using Composer:

composer global require maglnet/composer-require-checker

If you haven't already setup you composer installation to support global requirements, please refer to the Composer cli - global If this is already done, run it like this:

composer-require-checker check /path/to/your/project/composer.json
