Sorry for the title, I really can't explain better. I'm learning shell programming.

I'm trying to detect if Composer has a script named "post-install-cmd". To do that, one can call composer run-script --list (documentation). So i pipe that command to grep -q inside a conditional.

When I run this inside a Docker layer (distribution is Debian-based), i only get an error when calling composer run-script --list inside the conditional:

RUN set -eux; \
    if [ -f composer.json ]; then \
        composer dump-autoload --no-dev --classmap-authoritative; \
        # This is working fine, a list is returned (see log)
        composer run-script --list; \
        # This gives me an error (Unable to write output)
        if composer run-script --list | grep -q post-install-cmd; then \
            echo "Script was found!"; \
        fi; \
    fi

You can try disabling the usage of ANSI escape codes for output formatting by adding the --no-ansi option to the composer run-script --list command. This can occasionally fix output-related problems in terminal environments that don't support them.

RUN set -eux; \
    if [ -f composer.json ]; then \
        composer dump-autoload --no-dev --classmap-authoritative; \
        composer run-script --list; \
        if composer run-script --list --no-ansi | grep -q post-install-cmd; then \
            echo "Script was found!"; \
        fi; \
    fi

Or Alternatively:

docker run -t my_image

I also got the command to work in a build step by running:

echo "$(composer show)" | grep myvendor/mypackage

Speech marks " is to avoid field splitting (puts the command all in on one line, which is not what you want). Credit: https://unix.stackexchange.com/a/170726/177624

More info in field splitting @see https://pubs.opengroup.org/onlinepubs/9699919799/utilities/V3_chap02.html#tag_18_06_05
