uninstallation - Remove composer

Question

I installed composer while trying to install cakePhp, but the installation was not successful and I want to uninstall composer. I am not finding any way to do this.

For the installation I used the command curl -s https://getcomposer.org/installer | php

I am working in linux

Answer 1

During the installation you got a message Composer successfully installed to: ... this indicates where Composer was installed. But you might also search for the file composer.phar on your system.

Then simply:

1. Delete the file composer.phar.
2. Delete the Cache Folder:
   • Linux: /home/<user>/.composer
   • Windows: C:Users<username>AppDataRoamingComposer

That's it.
