=============================
install:generatepackagestates
=============================


**Generate PackageStates.php file in non Composer enabled TYPO3 projects**

Generates and writes `typo3conf/PackageStates.php` file.
Goal is to not have this file in version control, but generate it on `composer install`.

Marks the following extensions as active:

- Third party extensions
- All core extensions that are required (or part of minimal usable system)
- All core extensions which are provided with the `--framework-extensions` argument.
- In composer mode all composer dependencies to TYPO3 framework extensions are detected and activated by default.

To require TYPO3 core extensions use the following command:


.. code-block:: shell

   composer require typo3/cms-foo "*"

This updates your composer.json and composer.lock without any other changes.

**Example:**


.. code-block:: shell

   typo3cms install:generatepackagestates
