Composer doesn't see newly added dependency?

Question

Composer

composer.json:

....
"require": {
....
        "mcamara/laravel-localization": "1.1.*"
    },
....

Added a dependency. Then composer install :

[email protected]:~/my_projects/lara.local$ composer install
Loading composer repositories with package information
Installing dependencies (including require-dev) from lock file
Warning: The lock file is not up to date with the latest changes in composer.json. You may be getting outdated dependencies. Run update to update them.
Nothing to install or update
Generating autoload files
> php artisan clear-compiled
  > php artisan optimize
  Generating optimized class loader

In general, he does not see the newly added dependency. How to fix it?

Answer 1

Warning: The lock file is not up to date with the latest changes in composer.json. You may be getting outdated dependencies. Run update to update them.

install command checks if a lock file is present, and if it is, it downloads the versions specified there ( regardless of what composer.json says ).
