How to install intervention image with Windows

Question

In Intervention Image's website, it says that in order to install the most recent version, I must run the following command :

php composer.phar require intervention/image

I am using Windows 8.1 and I guess this isn't going to work. I already tried and it says : Could not open input file: composer.phar

Am I missing something very easy?

Thank you!! Instead of doing php composer.phar I just have to write composer! — user3038607, May 20 '15 at 23:30

First of all you point you project directory after that you should run "composer require intervention/image""command.

Your result like this

Admin@Admin-dell MINGW64 /c/xampp/htdocs/laravel_dev
$ composer require intervention/image
Using version ^2.3 for intervention/image
./composer.json has been updated
Loading composer repositories with package information
Updating dependencies (including require-dev)
  - Installing psr/http-message (1.0)
    Loading from cache

  - Installing guzzlehttp/psr7 (1.3.0)
    Loading from cache

  - Installing intervention/image (2.3.7)
    Downloading: 100%

intervention/image suggests installing ext-imagick (to use Imagick based image processing.)
intervention/image suggests installing intervention/imagecache (Caching extension for the Intervention Image library)
Writing lock file
Generating autoload files
> Illuminate\Foundation\ComposerScripts::postUpdate
> php artisan optimize
Generating optimized class loader
