Install Older Version of Laravel using Composer

Question

How do I install older version of Laravel framework using composer? The current version is 4.1 and I want to install Laravel 4.0.

Answer 1

Finally it works, I just did four things:

composer create-project laravel/laravel mobilebanking 4.0

Change "dev" to "stable" in composer.json

Then run

composer self-update

After that, run this command

composer update --no-scripts

Answer 2

Browse packagist - https://packagist.org/packages/laravel/laravel Find version you need and add it to composer i.e.

"require": {
    "laravel/laravel": "v4.0.0",
},

Answer 3

composer create-project laravel/laravel Your_Directory Version You want(5.5)

like:

composer create-project laravel/laravel laravelTest 5.5

Answer 4

either update your composer.json to what GregD mentioned or fetch it directly with

composer create-project laravel/laravel your-project-name 4.0.*

prefer this, as there can be some caveats when getting version 4.1 and wanting to downgrade (or even upgrade).

Answer 5

composer create–project laravel/laravel MiProyecto 5.3.*  o  
composer create–project laravel/laravel=5.3.* MiProyecto
