+# Composer Packages Repository
+
+Publish [Composer](https://getcomposer.org/) packages for your user or organization.
+
+**Table of Contents**
+
+{{< toc >}}
+
+## Requirements
+
+To work with the Composer package registry, you can use [Composer](https://getcomposer.org/download/) to consume and a HTTP upload client like `curl` to publish packages.
+
+## Publish a package
+
+To publish a Composer package perform a HTTP PUT operation with the package content in the request body.
+The package content must be the zipped PHP project with the `composer.json` file.
+You cannot publish a package if a package of the same name and version already exists. You must delete the existing package first.
+
+```
+PUT https://gitea.example.com/api/packages/{owner}/composer
+```
+
+| Parameter  | Description |
+| ---------- | ----------- |
+| `owner`    | The owner of the package. |
+
+If the `composer.json` file does not contain a `version` property, you must provide it as a query parameter:
+
+```
+PUT https://gitea.example.com/api/packages/{owner}/composer?version={x.y.z}
+```
+
+Example request using HTTP Basic authentication:
+
+```shell
+curl --user your_username:your_password_or_token \
+     --upload-file path/to/project.zip \
+     https://gitea.example.com/api/packages/testuser/composer
+```
+
+Or specify the package version as query parameter:
+
+```shell
+curl --user your_username:your_password_or_token \
+     --upload-file path/to/project.zip \
+     https://gitea.example.com/api/packages/testuser/composer?version=1.0.3
+```
+
+The server responds with the following HTTP Status codes.
+
+| HTTP Status Code  | Meaning |
+| ----------------- | ------- |
+| `201 Created`     | The package has been published. |
+| `400 Bad Request` | The package name and/or version are invalid or a package with the same name and version already exist. |
+
+## Configuring the package registry
+
+To register the package registry you need to add it to the Composer `config.json` file (which can usually be found under `<user-home-dir>/.composer/config.json`):
+
+```json
+{
+  "repositories": [{
+      "type": "composer",
+      "url": "https://gitea.example.com/api/packages/{owner}/composer"
+   }
+  ]
+}
+```
+
+To access the package registry using credentials, you must specify them in the `auth.json` file as follows:
+
+```json
+{
+  "http-basic": {
+    "gitea.example.com": {
+      "username": "{username}",
+      "password": "{password}"
+    }
+  }
+}
+```
+
+| Parameter  | Description |
+| ---------- | ----------- |
+| `owner`    | The owner of the package. |
+| `username` | Your Gitea username. |
+| `password` | Your Gitea password or a personal access token. |
+
+## Install a package
+
+To install a package from the package registry, execute the following command:
+
+```shell
+composer require {package_name}
+```
+
+Optional you can specify the package version:
+
+```shell
+composer require {package_name}:{package_version}
+```
+
+| Parameter         | Description |
+| ----------------- | ----------- |
+| `package_name`    | The package name. |
+| `package_version` | The package version. |
