Wanted to install Laravel-Excel (Maatwebsite) package manually without composer, but I dont know how.

Why? Because I have a laravel project in a free hosting server setup by other guy, and I can only access using Filezilla to edit/download/upload the codes.

If only Filezilla allow a command prompt that could use "composer update", then it will be easier.

composer-php laravel filezilla php

I got solution! I cant use composer on my company because of secure network. But i can download zip form github and install it manual. The below is my example for HTMLPurifier:

  1. download and extract library mews/purifier to vendor directory https://github.com/mewebstudio/Purifier
  2. add below line in vendor/composer/autoload_psr4.php

This sentence will load all of file from vendor/mews/purifier/src and autoload in namespace Mews\Purifier\

'Mews\\Purifier\\' => array($vendorDir . '/mews/purifier/src'),

Sometime you need add library into autoload_namespaces.php intead of, please read in https://getcomposer.org/doc/04-schema.md#autoload

You got Mews\Purifier\Facades\Purifier not found if public config before finish step 3

$ php artisan vendor:publish --provider="Mews\Purifier\PurifierServiceProvider"

  1. add below json in vendor/composer/installed.json

This for composer history, providers and aliases will be load in config/app/php for register new provider

{
    "name": "mews/purifier",
    "version": "v2.0.12",
    "type": "library",
    "extra": {
        "laravel": {
            "providers": [
                "Mews\\Purifier\\PurifierServiceProvider"
            ],
            "aliases": {
                "Purifier": "Mews\\Purifier\\Facades\\Purifier"
            }
        }
    },
    "autoload": {
        "psr-4": {
            "Mews\\Purifier\\": "src/"
        }
    }
},

Now you run this config, then vendor/mews/purifier/config will be move to config folder

$ php artisan vendor:publish --provider="Mews\Purifier\PurifierServiceProvider"

it's easy to do it by following this download the package and set the files in app folder 

YourProject/app/Laravel-Excel/

and then add the path to composer.json in autoload

"autoload": {
    ...
    "classmap": [
        "database/seeds",
        "database/factories"
        "app/Laravel-Excel"
    ],
    ...
},

Run the composer dump-autoload

If everything works on local environment then copy your package and composer folder to server which is located at vendor
