Where/how to add 3rd party PHP packages used by wprig components in the /inc folder?

[seanrasmussen]

I notice that the composer vendor folder is not included in the production build....

Say I have a package that I want to use in a component, do I use a normal composer/vendor install, or do I manually copy the files into the component folder?

Some docs on this workflow would be great!

I've been thinking about this and I think the best approach would be for the production build step to copy composer.lock to the production build directory then run composer install --no-dev, rather than copying the vendor directory.

If I make a PR that does that, can you help test it @seanrasmussen?

[seanrasmussen]

Sure, I'd be happy to help test it... with the disclaimer that I am a bit new to OOP PHP :-)

Just curious -- would that mean that the bundle.zip would also have the vendor (production) folder?

Yes, it would since the .zip is created at the end of the production build.
