How do I create a project based on a specific version of Symfony using composer?
try the Symfony Installer ...
To create a traditional web application :
symfony new --webapp my_project_name
and to build a lightweight app like a microservice, console application or API :
symfony new my_project_name
to install the current LTS version :
symfony new my_project_name --version=lts
to install the latest stable version :
symfony new my_project_name --version=stable
to install the development version :
symfony new my_project_name --version=next
to install a specific version :
symfony new my_project_name --version=4.4
OR with composer :
composer create-project symfony/website-skeleton my_project ^4.4.0
to install a full project in the 4.4.X stable version
or :
composer create-project symfony/skeleton my_project ^4.4.0
to install a lightweight project with fewer requirements
I tried:
composer create-project symfony/website-skeleton my_project 4.4.0
but this didn't work. I got following error:
Could not find package symfony/skeleton with version 4.4.0.
Then I tried:
composer create-project symfony/website-skeleton my_project ^4.4.0
and this worked.
