In https://stackoverflow.com/a/3313137/569976 ircmaxell says the following:

I use a public static method init() on my static classes that require initialization (or at least need to execute some code). Then, in my autoloader, when it loads a class it checks is_callable($class, 'init'). If it is, it calls that method. Quick, simple and effective...

That post, however, is from 2010 and a lot has changed since then. My question is... does Composer support anything like this?

Composer's autoloader isn't going to automatically call init methods for you, but that doesn't stop you from using your own autoloader instead.

https://getcomposer.org/doc/01-basic-usage.md#autoloading

Note: Composer provides its own autoloader. If you don't want to use that one, you can just include vendor/composer/autoload_*.php files, which return associative arrays allowing you to configure your own autoloader.
