正在尝试使用composer安装PEAR扩展

Question

我正在转换一个旧项目（具有旧依赖项），以使用composer来管理它的依赖项。该网站使用PEAR的Text_Password。我读到composer可以在composer.json中添加（类似于）以下内容来安装依赖项：

"repositories": [
    {
        "type": "pear",
        "url": "http://pear.php.net"
    }
],
"require": {
    ...
    "pear-pear/Text_Password": "*"
},

但我得到了错误：

$ composer update
Loading composer repositories with package information
Initializing PEAR repository http://pear.php.net
Updating dependencies (including require-dev)
Your requirements could not be resolved to an installable set of packages.
  Problem 1
    - The requested package pear-pear/text_password could not be found in any version, there may be a typo in the package name.
Potential causes:
 - A typo in the package name
 - The package is not available in a stable-enough version according to your minimum-stability setting
   see <https://groups.google.com/d/topic/composer-dev/_g3ASeIFlrc/discussion> for more details.

是否可以使用Composer安装PEAR库？我注意到packagist上有一个PEAR库集合，但我看不到Text_Password-https://packagist.org/packages/pear/

还有一个用于Text_Password的github repo，但我认为直接从PEAR安装可能更好？-https://github.com/pear/Text_Password

无论如何，我怎样才能用composer安装这个包？

Answer 1

开始：

{
    "type": "project",
    "repositories": [
        {
            "type": "pear",
            "url": "http://pear.php.net"
        }
    ],
    "require": {
        "pear-pear.php.net/Text_Password": "*"
    }
}

注意：PEAR存储库已从Composer 2.0 中删除
