  • Packagist: the description was copied from the original Faker; it now says what sets the package apart. Keywords go from 4 to 10 (fake data, test data, mock data, dummy data, lorem ipsum, factories...). Adds homepage and support links so Packagist points to the docs.
  • Dist archive: Dockerfile, docker-compose.yml and phpunit.xml ended up in every consumer's vendor/. phpunit.xml slipped through because the rule targeted phpunit.xml.dist, which does not exist. scripts/ stays: the package's own post-install-cmd and post-update-cmd hooks call it when the archive is the root package, as with composer create-project.

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • Chores
    • Updated package listing details with PHP 8.3+ information, broader keywords, and links to the homepage, documentation, issue tracker, and source repository.
    • Package exports now exclude Docker configuration, PHPUnit configuration, and scripts. Existing exclusions for tests and GitHub files remain; phpunit.xml.dist and rector.php are no longer excluded.

The description was copied from the original Faker and said nothing about
what sets this package apart; the four keywords missed most of what people
actually search for (fake data, test data, mock data, dummy data, lorem
ipsum, factories).

Also declares the homepage and support links so Packagist points to the
documentation instead of only the repository.
Dockerfile, docker-compose.yml, phpunit.xml and scripts/ ended up in every
consumer's vendor directory. phpunit.xml slipped through because the rule
targeted phpunit.xml.dist, which does not exist; rector.php was a rule for
a file that does not exist either.

scripts/generate-mixin.php only runs as this package's own post-install
hook: consumers get their mixin generated at runtime by the Container, and
nothing references the script from outside.

The archive now holds LICENSE, README.md, composer.json and src/ only.

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

The pull request revises Composer package metadata and updates the files excluded from exports.

Changes

Package publication

Layer / File(s) Summary
Package metadata and export contents
.gitattributes, composer.json
composer.json updates the package description and keywords and adds homepage and support URLs. .gitattributes adds exclusions for Dockerfile, docker-compose.yml, phpunit.xml, and /scripts; it removes exclusions for phpunit.xml.dist and /rector.php.

Priority: ⬇️ Low

Estimated code review effort: 2 (Simple) | ~8 minutes

Change: Other

Merge Risk: 🔵 Low · up to 71e51

Projects created directly from this package can fail during Composer setup because the archive omits a lifecycle-hook script. Ordinary dependency installs are unaffected, so the impact is bounded to project creation.

- Line 7: Update the `/scripts export-ignore` rule so project distributions
retain `scripts/generate-mixin.php`, which is invoked by the root post-install
and post-update hooks. Keep other export exclusions unchanged; alternatively,
update those hooks so they do not invoke a script omitted from the archive.

Comment thread .gitattributes Outdated
The package's own post-install-cmd and post-update-cmd hooks call
scripts/generate-mixin.php. They never run when the package is installed
as a dependency, but they do when the archive becomes the root package,
as with composer create-project: with scripts/ export-ignored, Composer
aborted on "Could not open input file: scripts/generate-mixin.php".

Reproduced by extracting the archive and running composer install in it;
with the script kept, the install succeeds and generates the mixin.
