How to restore composer.json and composer.lock?

Question

Composer

Colleagues, how can I restore / recreate
composer.json
composer.lock files that
are not on the server.
Only the installed.json file remains

Answer 1

There is no way to restore 100%. Installed.json stores all dependencies, even indirect ones. Also, there is no indication in which section the package is require or require-dev. Installed.json lists only specific package versions, while composer.json can specify versions with the ^ and ~ operators. Restoring "just to work" is quite realistic.
