ZUGFeRD mit PHP: Wie ich das horstoeko/zugferd-Paket lokal vorbereitet und ohne Composer-Zugriff auf den Server gebracht habe

Wer schon einmal versucht hat, das ZUGFeRD-Format mit PHP umzusetzen, wird früher oder später auf das Projekt **horstoeko/zugferd** stoßen. Es bietet eine mächtige Möglichkeit, ZUGFeRD-konforme Rechnungsdaten zu erstellen und in PDF-Dokumente einzubetten. Doch gerade am Anfang lauern einige Stolpersteine: Composer, Pfadprobleme, Server ohne Shell-Zugriff. Dieser Beitrag zeigt, wie ich mir mit einem lokalen Setup, GitKraken und einem simplen Upload-Trick geholfen habe, um trotz aller Einschränkungen produktiv arbeiten zu können. Bevor ich das Paket überhaupt einbinden konnte, musste Composer einmal lokal installiert werden – ganz ohne kommt man nicht aus. Ich habe mich für den Weg über die offizielle Installationsanleitung entschieden:

php -r "copy('https://getcomposer.org/installer', 'composer-setup.php');" php composer-setup.php php -r "unlink('composer-setup.php');"

Es gibt aber auch fertige Pakete als *.exe für Windows. ### GitKraken, Composer & das Terminal Ich arbeite gerne visuell, und daher ist **GitKraken** mein bevorzugter Git-Client. Doch ein oft unterschätzter Vorteil: GitKraken bringt ein eigenes Terminal mit. Dieses habe ich genutzt, um **Composer lokal** zu verwenden – ohne die globale Composer-Installation auf meinem Server-System anfassen zu müssen.

# Im Terminal von GitKraken composer require horstoeko/zugferd

Dabei habe ich mich bewusst für die `1.x`-Version entschieden, da diese eine stabilere und besser dokumentierte Grundlage für den Einsatz ohne komplexes Setup bietet. Zudem ist dort der `ZugferdDocumentPdfBuilder` enthalten, der es erlaubt, das gesamte PDF-Handling im PHP-Kosmos zu belassen. Soweit ich gesehen habe, gibt es wohl auch DEV-Versionen, aber ich war mir nicht sicher wie weit diese nutzbar sind. ### Der Upload-Trick: Alles lokal vorbereiten Da mein Zielserver keinen Composer-Zugriff bietet, musste ich alles **lokal vorbereiten**. Ich nutze für meine Testumgebung einen einfachen Server von AllInk. Das ist extrem kostengünstig, aber eigene Software installieren, Fehlanzeige. Der Trick: Ich habe den gesamten `vendor`-Ordner inklusive `composer.json` und `composer.lock` gezippt und manuell auf den Server übertragen. Das spart nicht nur Zeit, sondern funktioniert in jeder Hostingumgebung.

# Lokaler Aufbau my-project/ ├── src/ ├── vendor/ ├── composer.json ├── composer.lock

Dann per SFTP oder FTP hochladen und sicherstellen, dass im PHP-Code folgender Autoloader korrekt eingebunden wird:

require __DIR__ . '/vendor/autoload.php';

### Vorsicht, Pfade: Die Sache mit dem "/src"-Unterordner Ein Stolperstein war die Struktur des horstoeko-Pakets. Die Klassen liegen nicht direkt im Projektverzeichnis, sondern verstecken sich unter:

/vendor/horstoeko/zugferd/src/...

Der PSR-4-Autoloader von Composer ist darauf vorbereitet, aber wer manuell Klassen einbindet oder den Autoloader nicht korrekt referenziert, bekommt Fehler. Ein Test mit:

use horstoeko\zugferd\ZugferdDocumentPdfBuilder;

funktionierte erst, nachdem ich sicher war, dass der Autoloader geladen war und keine Pfade fehlten. ### Endlich produktiv: Der erste Builder-Lauf Nachdem alles hochgeladen und die Autoloading-Probleme beseitigt waren, konnte ich mein erstes ZUGFeRD-Dokument bauen:

$builder = new ZugferdDocumentPdfBuilder(); $builder->setDocumentFile("./rechnung.pdf"); $builder->setZugferdXml("./debug_12345.xml"); $builder->saveDocument("./zugferd_12345_final.pdf");

Und siehe da: eine ZUGFeRD-konforme PDF-Datei, direkt aus PHP erzeugt. Kein Java, kein PDF/A-Tool von Adobe, keine Blackbox. Wichtig, das ganze ist per ZIP auf jeden Kundenserver übertragbar. ### Warum kein Java? Ich habe bewusst darauf verzichtet, Java-Tools wie Apache PDFBox oder gar die offizielle ZUGFeRD Java Library zu nutzen – aus einem ganz einfachen Grund: Ich wollte die Lösung so nah wie möglich an meiner bestehenden PHP-Infrastruktur halten. Keine zusätzliche Runtime, keine komplexen Abhängigkeiten, keine Übersetzungsprobleme zwischen Systemen. PHP allein reicht – wenn man die richtigen Werkzeuge nutzt. ### Häufige Fehlermeldungen und ihre Lösungen Gerade beim Einstieg in das horstoeko/zugferd-Paket können einige typische Fehlermeldungen auftreten: **Fehler:** `Class 'horstoeko\zugferd\ZugferdDocumentPdfBuilder' not found`

// Lösung: require_once __DIR__ . '/vendor/autoload.php';

**Fehler:** `Cannot open file ./debug_12345.xml`

// Lösung: Pfad prüfen! Gerade bei relativen Pfaden kann es helfen, alles absolut zu machen: $builder->setZugferdXml(__DIR__ . '/debug_12345.xml');

**Fehler:** `Output file cannot be written`

// Lösung: Schreibrechte auf dem Zielverzeichnis prüfen! Ein chmod 775 oder 777 (mit Bedacht!) kann helfen.

--- **Fazit:** Wer wie ich auf Servern ohne Composer arbeiten muss oder will, kann sich mit einem lokalen Setup, GitKraken und einem Zip-Upload wunderbar behelfen. Wichtig ist, auf die Pfade zu achten, den Autoloader korrekt einzubinden und nicht vor kleinen Hürden zurückzuschrecken. Die Möglichkeiten, die das horstoeko/zugferd-Paket bietet, machen die Mühe mehr als wett. Zumal das ganze Setup, 1 zu 1, auf einen Kundenserver übertragen werden kann. Die eigentlichen Daten kommen aus FileMaker, dieser holt sich die PDF und das XML auch wieder vom Server ab. Somit ist die Erstellung der ZUGFeRD-PDF und der XML mit einen FileMaker-Script abzudecken. Für die Erstellung auf dem Server bedarf es zweier PHP-Scripte. Dazu das Horstoeko/zugferd-Paket.

Mastering Git Merge: A Comprehensive Guide to Version Control and Collaboration

Merging in Git plays a key role in version control. It combines changes from different branches into one. A merge allows teams to work on features independently and then bring them together. This process helps keep projects organized.

There are different types of merges in Git. A fast-forward merge happens when there are no changes on the base branch since branching off. In this case, Git simply moves the base branch pointer forward to the latest commit. A three-way merge occurs when the branches have diverged. Git uses the last common commit and the commits from both branches to create a new commit. A squash merge combines all changes into a single commit. This can help keep the history clean and easy to read.

Before you merge branches, you must ensure they are up-to-date. First, you should fetch the latest changes from the remote repository. This updates your local copy with changes made by others. After fetching, you can pull changes from the remote repository. This keeps your local branch synchronized.

Understanding branch structure is essential when preparing for a merge. You must identify the base branch, which is the branch you want to merge into. It is often the main or master branch. Once you identify the base branch, you can select the feature branch that contains your new changes.

When it is time to merge, you will use specific Git commands. The basic merge command is simple and allows Git to combine the branches. You can also use options with the command to specify how the merge should occur. After entering the command, you will execute the merge process.

However, you might face merge conflicts during the process. These conflicts happen when changes in the branches overlap. To resolve them, you will need to review the conflicting files. Then, you can choose which changes to keep. After solving the conflicts, you can complete the merge and continue your project.

Identifying Merge Conflicts Is Key

When you merge branches in Git, you may see signs of conflicts. One common sign is when Git gives you error messages. These messages usually indicate which files have issues. You may also notice your code does not work as expected after a merge. Tools help find these conflicts too. You can use `git status` to see which files are in conflict. Visual tools like GitKraken or SourceTree are helpful for this as well.

Resolving Conflicts Takes Patience

Once you find conflicts, you need to resolve them. You can do this manually. Open the conflicting files and look for conflict markers. They look like `<<<<<<<`, `=======`, and `>>>>>>>`. You carefully decide which code to keep. It may help to talk to your teammates about their changes too. If manual resolution is hard, you can use merge tools like Kdiff3 or Meld. These tools show differences side by side, making it easier to choose.

Completing the Merge Is Important

After resolving the conflicts, it is time to finish the merge process. First, you need to stage the changes. Use `git add ` for each file you changed. This tells Git you are ready for the next step. Then, you must commit the merge. Use `git commit` to save the changes in your history. Be sure to write a clear commit message that explains what you did. This step is crucial because it helps everyone understand the changes.

Best Practices Keep You on Track

Regularly merging branches helps avoid large conflicts later. Try to merge your changes into the main branch often. This practice keeps your project organized. It is also wise to keep branches small and focused. Smaller branches are easier to manage and review. Use descriptive commit messages. Good messages provide context and make it easier for others to follow your work. Emphasizing clear communication in team projects leads to better collaboration and successful outcomes. Understanding and mastering these merge strategies strengthens your teamwork in Git.

Git merge is a key part of working with version control. Understanding it helps you to keep your project organized. Git merge allows you to combine changes from different branches. This process makes teamwork easier. When one person works on a feature and another on a bug fix, merging brings both sets of work together.

There are several types of merges in Git. You can do a fast-forward merge. This happens when there are no changes on the main branch. Git simply moves the main branch forward. A three-way merge occurs when there are changes on both branches. Git uses the last common commit to join them. A squash merge combines all changes into one commit. This keeps your history clean.

Preparation is important before merging. First, make sure your branches are up-to-date. You fetch the latest changes first. This helps sync your local files with the remote files. Then, you can pull in those changes. After this, you will identify the base branch. This is the branch you will merge into.

Next, you select the feature branch that has your changes. When you are ready, you type the merge command into Git. It is a simple command once you know it. You may also use options for more control. After you execute the command, you begin the merging process.

Sometimes, merge conflicts will happen. These occur when two branches try to make changes to the same line of code. To solve conflicts, you must look at the files. Review what both branches want to change. Then, decide which changes to keep. Once you solve the conflicts, you are ready to complete the merge.

Mastering Git merge is very essential. It helps you work better with your team. With good merging, you save time and effort. You avoid many problems that arise in collaboration. Take time to learn and practice merging for successful development projects. Another Post Explains git merge and branching very beautifully here is the link
