Why is the /vendor/ folder not being created?

Question

Yii

I uploaded my project to bitbucket, then cloned it, I
executed the command
composer update
. Extensions were pulled up, but the vendor folder did not appear.
I try again - Nothing to install or updateand there is still no vendor folder. What am I doing wrong

Answer 1

There is a very long history associated with dropbox.

Answer 2

Well, apparently it's in .gitignore.

Answer 3

Check if the composer.json file is empty and in the same directory where you run composer from. Upon successful execution, composer generates a composer.lock file, in which all downloaded dependencies are physically registered. If it's not there, composer didn't work. See if everything is fine with the rights and if the script has the right to create folders in the directory.
