installation of composer on shared hosting

I have installed composer on shared hosting.
It's successfully installed on my shared hosting.
I have followed this tutorial for installation.

Link :- https://www.globo.tech/learning-center/laravel-under-cpanel/

Screenshot after installation.

I have used below command and it's working fine for me.

php composer.phar

But when I tried to install laravel in my public_html directory using below command,

composer create-project --prefer-dist laravel/laravel borrowpet "5.2.*"

It's not working. It shows composer command not please find below screenshot for error.

Please let me know what I'm missing while installing composer.

Use the command php composer.phar create-project --prefer-dist laravel/laravel borrowpet "5.2.*"
and make sure you execute the command from the directory where compser.phar exists.

php composer.phar create-project --prefer-dist laravel/laravel borrowpet "5.2.*"

Thank you brother i think composer's problem is solved. It showing me this error so this server has installed php version 5.4.45 but laravel needs higher version so is it possible to install laravel 5.2 on lower version? Error :-[InvalidArgumentException] Could not find package laravel/laravel with version 5.2.* in a version installable using your PHP version 5.4.45.

Laravel 5.2 requires PHP version to be greater than or equal to 5.5.9

If you use SiteGround you will be a lucky man, just must request access do ssh (over cpanel), and then run your composer command on terminal.

composer

SiteGround servers already have composer globally installed.

BUT... you you want to do it on hard way, access you shell on Siteground and run:

wget https://getcomposer.org/composer.phar -O $HOME/composer.phar
echo "alias composer="/usr/local/php72/bin/php-cli $HOME/composer.phar "" >> $HOME/.bashrc
source $HOME/.bashrc
composer --version


Just pay attention on php72 version, it's uses PHP 7.2. If you want or need another one do a ls /usr/local/ to see all versions.

ls /usr/local/
