To add composer to a chrooted shell.
Follow the download instructions from https://getcomposer.org/download/:
While logged in as root
Now you'll may noticed that when you access the a user that is chrooted, composer is still missing.
There are a few extra commands to update the bin directories of the chrooted user/domain.
It's worth noting that if you have a bunch of chrooted users, you may want to write a script to execute the commands all in one go so it will save you a head-ache.
Good luck.
Hello, @Adam!
Thank you very much for sharing, I am sure this information will come in handy for anyone else who would like to add a composer without using update_chroot.sh.
