Support tools: none

Describe the feature

Please consider supporting tools: none when not even Composer is installed.

Currently there is a message with "unknown tool".

Thank you.

@szepeviktor
I can add tools: none.

Although, updating composer phar takes only around 100ms... so I kept it as a default, since that is what most workflows did before installing packages.

I do some weird run of Composer scripts on PHP 7.3 then revert to PHP 7.0 and a Composer plugin fails hard.

[shivammathur]

This is because TypistTech/imposter was installed with PHP 7.3. It has a php requirement php: ^7.3 || ^8.0.

and reverting to PHP 7.0 gives error, as line 14 of the package is
protected const DEFAULT_EXCLUDES = ['typisttech/imposter'];
and class constant visibility modifiers are only supported on PHP 7.1 and above.

So remove TypistTech/imposter before running setup-php again with PHP 7.0, and if you need it again with PHP 7.0 - after switching version try installing the 0.3.0 version of the package which supports PHP 7.0.

I need the fruit of modern TypistTech/imposter on PHP 7.0.
Of course I never run Composer on PHP 7.0 again.

Could you help?

[shivammathur]

Removing composer won't help here as when you use TypistTech/imposter with PHP 7.0, you will get the error.

Downgrading the package using rector might help

I've stated that I will not start Composer again after the PHP downgrade.
And the application does not call imposter.

And we could spare 100 ms! 😄
